Floor Mounted™ Fume Hood is designed to provide comfortable space when users have to deal with large apparatus and hazardous containers. This fume hood is built with horizontal or vertical sliding sashes for ease of access when transporting apparatus into the hood. Although this type of fume hood is sometimes denoted as a walk-in fume hood, it is a misnomer. The user must not enter the hood while an activity generating hazardous fumes exists or when suspected concentration of fumes exists inside the chamber.

Fume Scrubber provides excellent air pollution control for water soluble chemicals present in the laboratory fume hood exhaust fumes. 

In recent years there has been increased emphasis on laboratory operator safety and also environmental concerns like environmental health and protection. Governments respond by setting stricter rules to control the emission and quality of exhaust fumes from industries and laboratories. Therefore, more and more laboratory designers and facility operators are considering the use of scrubbers for their fume hoods.

Esco fume scrubbers are optimally designed to save space, as well as, provide effective air pollution control and operator safety protection for fume hoods. This is especially important for perchloric acid fume hoods, so as to prevent a build-up of potentially explosive perchlorate salts on the exhaust fan, as well as, on the exhaust ducting system.

• Exellent removal efficiencies: Efficient counter-current gas/liquid contact results in 95-98% efficiency for most water-soluble acid and base laden airstreams.
• Durable: Entire body of scrubber system made of chemical and corrosion resistant polypropylene.
• Compact: The packing, spray manifold and mist eliminator counted on top of fume hood, pump and reservoir in the base cabinet. This arrangement ensures that minimal extra space is required for the scrubber system.

Laboratory fume hoods are essential devices used to protect personnel against exposure to hazardous chemicals and gases. Esco Frontier^® Mono^TM fume hoods are primary containment apparatus that protects workers effectively from noxious fumes and vapors.

Radioisotope™ Fume Hood is designed to be used when handling radioactive materials. This specialized fume hood is built with stainless steel internal surfaces (including the work surface) with coved seamless welded corners for easy cleaning and decontamination. Frontier® Radioisotope™ fume hoods have been engineered to provide maximum safety while using low level Alpha and lower level Beta particles. In addition, these hoods provide containment performance similar to that of high performance low velocity fume hoods.
