Ascent Max Ductless Fume Cabinet B Series Model ADC-6B2
Ascent Max-B Series (ADC-B) is the standard ductless fume hood model. This unit is equipped with a main carbon filter and is used for general applications such as dilution, mixing, buffer preparation, etc.
The Ascent Max Ductless Fume Cabinet offers a sensible balance of quality, performance features and cost-effectiveness. It operates at a low noise level with low energy consumption and is fully compliant to major international standards.
Product Highlights
- Optional VOC Sensor – detects presence of volatile organic compounds in the exhaust and alarms to indicate filter saturation
- Sentinel Silver Microprocessor Control, Alarm System is an advanced microprocessor control that supervises operation of all hood functions. Temperature-compensated air velocity sensor monitors airflow. 24-hour clock and blower run hour meter are standard
- Robust Hood Construction – key components, including fluorescent lamps, motor capacitor, electrical harness, electronic ballast, and switch control are mounted outside the airstream and away from contaminated areas to permit easy service
- Certified containment-chemical vapors are contained within the enclosure and will not leak through the front opening
- Auto-Purge slots at the back of the work zone improve containment and operator protection by preventing the accumulation of fumes in the work zone
- Permanently lubricated direct drive centrifugal fan(s); energy efficient external rotor type design reduces operating costs; industry exclusive backward –curve, motorized impeller design guarantees better airflow uniformity, lower noise, and lower overall energy consumption
- Built-in solid state variable speed controller(s) with built-in RFI and noise filters is superior to conventional “step” controllers
- ISOCIDE antimicrobial surface on all painted surfaces minimizes surface contamination.
- Industrial-grade main body and dress panels constructed from electro-galvanized steel are durable
Integrated Filtration System
- Nanocarb Filters deliver extended filter capacity, high efficiency and long life
- Industry exclusive dual diffuser design ensures uniform loading of filters and maximizes filter life
- Possibility of secondary backup carbon filter or secondary backup HEPA filter
- Filter ID window behind the front panel allows user to easily identify the type of filter in use
- Efficient perimeter clamping ensures no leakage as well as allows for easy filter change procedure
- The inflow flushes the entire work zone of the hood; within the main chamber of the hood, negative pressure (relative to the ambient environment) is maintained so that no chemical fumes or vapors escape the work zone
Sentinel Microprocessor Control, Alarm, Monitoring System
Sentinel microprocessor-based hood control system supervise operation of all hood functions.
- Continuous monitoring of hood airflow is displayed on a bright, easy-to-read LCD panel
- Audible and visual alarms for low airflow and/or unsafe sash positions
- Configurable post-purge cycle ensures all residue contaminants are purged out of the hood work zone before the hood is de-activated
- An integrated, temperature-compensated, true airflow velocity sensor provides an accurate airflow reading despite room temperature fluctuation
- All electronic parts are contained inside a plug-and-play module that permits easy exchange if required
- Microprocessor software updates are available for download via the Internet
- Sentinel functions are factory set to default to ON or OFF, depending on worldwide destinations and local preferences. Default settings can be user activated through the touchpad data entry access
- Automatic start-up sequence will prepare the hood for normal operation and advise when safe conditions are established
- An administrator controlled PIN (Personal Identification Number) can be set to restrict access to main menu
- The airflow alarm can be activated or deactivated depending on user preference and nature of the work
- Specially designed for use in ductless fume hoods, a blower meter helps the user monitor hood usage. Every 60 hours, the control system reminds the user to test the exhaust concentration with the appropriate gas detection tube to determine if the filter is saturated
