Laboratory Fume Hoods
A fume hood (sometimes called a fume cupboard) is a type of local ventilation device designed to limit exposure to hazardous or toxic fumes & vapors in a lab. Fume hood is the single most essential component in a laboratory where chemical reactions are carried out. LabGuard is an expert leading fume hood manufacturer in India. We have a wide range of chemical fume hoods for our labs, be it an R&D lab, QC lab, educational lab or a third-party testing lab; you are all covered with LabGuard fume hoods.
Further, fume hoods have the following broad types:
- Bench top fume hoods
- Low bench fume hoods (also called distillation fume hoods)
- Walk-in fume hoods (also called floor-mounted fume hoods)
- Perchloric acid fume hoods (with wash-down system)
- Radioisotope fume hoods (with HEPA filters)
- Ductless fume hoods (with carbon filters)
All LabGuard fume hoods are type-tested for ASHRAE 110:2016 and EN 14175:2003 performance standards and certified by third-party too. Those also comply with SEFA-1 standards. Also, the fume hood performance can be tested in LabGuard’s state of the art in-house fume hood test facility.
