Esco Ascent Max 5ft Ductless Fume Hood C Series Model ADC-5C2
Advanced Ductless Fume Hood with Dual Carbon Filtration for Enhanced Chemical Safety
The Esco Ascent Max 5ft Ductless Fume Hood C Series (ADC-5C2) delivers high-efficiency chemical fume containment in a ductless, energy-efficient design. Its dual carbon filtration system removes toxic fumes and safely recirculates clean air back into the laboratory, offering enhanced filtration efficiency and extended filter life.
This C Series model is designed for laboratories handling a wide variety of chemicals, including powders and solids, where dual-layer protection and reliable performance are essential. The plug-and-play ductless design eliminates the need for expensive ductwork, provides mobility, and minimizes lab downtime.
Key Benefits
- Dual Carbon Filtration: Secondary exhaust carbon filter captures a broader range of toxic chemical fumes.
- Certified Containment: Auto-purge slots and optimized airflow prevent chemical fumes from escaping the work zone.
- Energy-Efficient & Quiet: Permanently lubricated centrifugal fan with backward-curved impeller lowers noise and operating costs.
- Advanced Airflow Monitoring: Sentinel Silver microprocessor monitors airflow continuously and triggers alarms for unsafe conditions.
- Durable & Clean: Industrial-grade electro-galvanized steel with ISOCIDE antimicrobial coating for long-lasting reliability.
- Flexible Filtration Options: Nanocarb main filter with optional secondary HEPA or carbon filter ensures backup protection.
