Conventional Fume Hoods
Conventional laboratory fume hoods are essential safety devices designed to protect personnel, experiments, and the laboratory environment from hazardous vapors, fumes, and dust. We offer a range of fume hoods manufactuered by Air Master Systems suitable for applications from educational labs to industrial research, with multiple airflow types and configurations.
Fume Hood Types
Constant Air Volume (CAV) Fume Hoods
- Operation: Maintains a constant airflow regardless of sash position.
- Pros: Simple design, lower initial installation cost, and easy maintenance.
- Cons: Higher energy consumption, as airflow does not adjust when the sash is closed.
- Usage: Often found in older laboratories or smaller setups.
Variable Air Volume (VAV) Fume Hoods
- Operation: Adjusts exhaust volume based on sash height to maintain constant face velocity.
- Pros: Highly energy-efficient, reducing operating costs over time.
- Cons: Higher initial cost and more complex control requirements.
- Usage: Ideal for modern, sustainable, or large-scale laboratory operations.
