Types of benchtop fume hoods

Need the powerful ventilation of a ducted hood? Or the flexibility of a ductless system for flexibility? Do you have space constraints?


No two lab benches are the same. Let's walk through the different types of chemical fume hoods to find one most suited for your lab.


Ducted Fume Hoods

Ducted fume hoods are designed to expel hazardous fumes and vapors outside the laboratory through an external ductwork system. These hoods are ideal for labs that handle large volumes of volatile chemicals and require a robust ventilation solution.

Applications:

  • Handling highly toxic or odorous chemicals.
  • Performing procedures that generate significant amounts of hazardous fumes.
  • Laboratories with existing ductwork infrastructure for ventilation.
Ductless Fume Hoods

Ductless fume hoods use advanced filtration systems to cleanse the air before recirculating it back into the lab. These hoods offer flexibility in placement and are easier to install since they do not require external ductwork.

Applications:

  • Laboratories needing flexibility in fume hood placement.
  • Situations where installing ductwork is impractical or too costly.
  • Environments requiring easy relocation of fume hoods.
Chemical Fume Hoods

Chemical fume hoods are specifically designed to handle hazardous chemicals, providing a safe environment for lab personnel. These hoods are built to offer maximum protection against chemical exposure and contamination.

Applications:

  • Laboratories that regularly work with dangerous chemicals.
  • Situations requiring stringent safety measures to protect personnel.
  • Applications needing rigorous containment of chemical vapors and particulates.
Table Top Fume Hoods

Table top fume hoods are compact, versatile units designed for smaller labs or areas with limited space. Despite their size, they offer the same level of protection and efficiency as larger models, making them suitable for various laboratory tasks.

Applications:

  • Laboratories with limited space.
  • Portable setups requiring easy movement and installation.
  • Educational settings where space and flexibility are crucial.
