Esco Ascent Max 3ft Ductless Fume Hood B Series Model ADC-3B2
Compact, Standard Ductless Fume Hood for Routine Lab Applications
The Esco Ascent Max 3ft Ductless Fume Hood B Series (ADC-3B2) is a reliable and cost-effective solution for laboratories performing general chemical processes such as dilution, mixing, and buffer preparation. Equipped with a main carbon filter, the ADC-3B2 efficiently removes hazardous chemical fumes while safely recirculating clean, filtered air back into the lab.
This ductless fume hood is designed for low noise operation, energy efficiency, and easy plug-and-play installation, making it ideal for labs with limited space or without existing ductwork.
