How to select a Laboratory Fume Hood

Updated: Jan 29

Powered by Godrej Interio :

There are three key aspects to be considered while selecting a Fume Hood:

  1. Size of the room where the Fume Hood is to be installed: Length x Width x Height

  2. Expected usage of Fume Hood:

  • 3’ & 4’ width Fume Hoods are intended for 1 person with relatively small apparatus

  • 5’ hoods are for 1 or 2 people, or with large apparatus

  • 6’ hoods are generally for 2 or more people, or with exceptionally large apparatus

3. Application of Fume Hood:

  • A normal Auto-bypass Fume Hood can be used for general purpose applications like

  • teaching and for non-AC research laboratories involving use of acids and organic solvents

  • For handling Perchloric Acid and Hydrofluoric Acid, highly toxic and other unstable explosive materials and radio-isotope applications, special design hoods are required

  • Under-storages should be chosen as per the storage requirement (for apparatus or for

  • corrosive acids or for flammable solvents)

  • LCV Fume Hood should be used for AC labs

INSTALL CLUSTERED FUME HOODS FOR QUICKER, MORE EFFICIENT SET UP


When multiple fume hoods are present in the lab, they can be clustered together to be connected to a common exhaust system. The entire cluster can be operated simultaneously, reducing investment and time required for designing and building of exhaust comprising of ducts and blowers.
