Advanced carbon filtration technology offers a safe, high performance alternative to conventional ducted fume hoods for a broad range of applications.

• Environmental Benefits
  • Air Science ductless fume hoods isolate and trap chemical vapors to prevent ecological impact through release into the environment.
• Versatile
  • Each filtration system is selected for its specific application. The Multiplex Filter broadens the range of applications. Carbon filters are available in more than 14 configurations for use with vapors or organic solvents, acids, mercury, formaldehyde. HEPA/ULPA filters can be added for biological safety.
• Easy to Install
  • The ductless fume hood is self-contained and does not require venting to the outside. Many units are portable and may be moved from one location to the next with minimal downtime and without filter changes. Set-up, operation and filter maintenance are straightforward.
• Energy Efficient
  • Because filtered air is returned to the room no demands are required of the facility HVAC capacity for make-up air.
• Cost Effective
  • Facility ductwork, HVAC and construction costs are eliminated.
• Safe to Use
  • Cabinet airflow and face velocity protect users from incidental exposure to fumes.
• Self-Testing
  • Electronic airflow monitoring assures continuous safety.

• Smooth Sash Operation: The chain drive sash mechanism is quieter and smoother to operate than conventional counterbalanced design.
• Sash Options: Manual sliding sash, standard. Optional motorized sliding sash or manual hinged sash are available; see accessories.
• Power Supply: Operates on standard 120V, 60Hz, 1 phase power; other voltages available upon request.
• Electronic Gas Detection System: Increases safety, provides four methods for filter monitoring and gas detection.

The BACnet operating system was developed under the auspices of ASHRAE as an internationally recognized, open source protocol for building automation. Now used in more than 30 countries worldwide, BACnet offers a universal management solution for optimal energy savings and environmental safety.

• While the Purair ECO operates flawlessly in a stand-alone mode with the standard controller, BACnet permits single or multiple cabinets to seamlessly tie-in to a reciprocal building automation protocol for supervisory control and monitoring.
• ECOair with BACnet allows the building network to monitor individual cabinet on/off status and route alarms to pre-designated addresses to warn of unsafe or dangerous conditions.
• Although other competitive systems include supervisory and monitoring functions operating on costly proprietary software platforms, the Air Science open-source BACnet solution fully integrates with more than 400 other manufactures to complete a holistic communications network without expensive proprietary programming.

The ECOair Controller maintains local supervision of all cabinet functions. The Main Menu screen provides all information, set-up and communications protocols. These include fan and lighting on/off functions, access to the on-board Filter Information Library, gas detector selection, set-up, alarms, user security access and networking configurations.

• The controller simultaneously controls and monitors all sensors, systems, alarms and switches including face velocity and gas detection levels.
• A color touch screen display is used for security access, set point and cabinet status.
• The Home screen is white during normal operating conditions.
• If pre-set warning parameters are surpassed for face velocity or gas levels the background will flash yellow to permit users ample time to mitigate the condition and return the system to normal.
• If no action is taken and conditions deviate beyond alarm set points the screen background will flash red and an audible alarm will sound.
• Concurrently, any emergency protocol programmed into the building alarm system will be activated.
• Additionally, a Press for Emergency button can be manually activated to set the unit into alarm mode and initiate the emergency protocol networked into the building alarm system.
• Filter maintenance and email notifications for filter re-order, service and waste removal providers can be programmed to initiate automatically through the networking feature.

Each Purair ECO fume hood includes features expressed through professional design and certified quality construction. Options and accessories add functional performance to meet specific applications.
