Lab Fabricators' fume hood superstructures are
shipped factory assembled with the light fixture, working floor,
service fixtures and electricals installed and tested.
All hoods are available in lengths from 3'-0" to 100'-0" and
may be customized to meet each end user's specific requirements.
The walk-in fume hoods are designed to provide ample space for
tall apparatus set-ups, such as vacuum line and distillation
operations or mobile set-up units which are wheeled into the
hood when required.
The WSP- and WSM- walk-in
fume hood are furnished with:
- The hood exterior is fabricated
of either a special chemical resistant plastic (WSP-)
or of 18 gauge, zinc-coated and bondarized steel with a chemical
resistant enamel (WSM-).
- The interior of the hood is made
of 1/4" thick, special heat, solvent and reagent resistant
composition stone that is treated with a chemical resistant,
clear vinyl for added protection. Additional hood liners
are available upon request, including a white modified resin/fiberglass,
fiberglass reinforced polyester (FRP), white polypropylene
and stainless steel.
- The fume hood baffles have three
adjustable air flow dampers at the top, center and bottom
for adjustment to light or heavy gases.
- The interior of the hood is illuminated
with a vapor-proof incandescent light fixture for added visibility.
- Two vertically rising front sashes
are glazed with 1/4" thick, laminated safety glass and
are counter balanced with lead weights for fingertip movement.
