Standard Fume Hoods for Safe Laboratory Ventilation
Standard Fume Hoods
Standard fume hoods are essential safety devices designed for laboratory environments that require effective ventilation of hazardous and toxic fumes. These fume hoods protect both laboratory personnel and the surrounding workspace by safely containing and exhausting harmful vapors, gases, and airborne contaminants.
To ensure maximum protection, standard fume hoods are typically connected to remote exhaust systems that efficiently remove hazardous fumes from the lab area, maintaining clean and breathable air.
Manufacturers offer various types of fume hoods to meet different laboratory needs, including:
Bench-top fume hoods – ideal for general laboratory applications
Low-height fume hoods – suitable for confined spaces or smaller labs
Distillation fume hoods – designed for tall apparatus setups
Walk-in fume hoods – built for large-scale or specialized laboratory operations
The right fume hood selection depends on your specific laboratory application, safety requirements, and available workspace. By choosing the correct model, laboratories can ensure optimal safety, compliance, and operational efficiency.
Special Application Fume Hoods for Advanced Laboratory Processes
Special Application Fume Hoods
Special application fume hoods are expertly designed and engineered to provide safe ventilation for laboratories handling specialized or high-risk applications. These hoods are tailored to meet the demanding safety and performance requirements of specific laboratory processes, ensuring maximum protection for users and the environment.
They are commonly used for applications such as:
Distillation processes requiring tall apparatus setups
Acid digestion involving corrosive chemicals and strong acids
Perchloric acid procedures, where specialized wash-down systems are essential for safety
Radioisotope applications that demand contamination control and shielding protection
Each special application fume hood is constructed using durable, chemical-resistant materials and integrated with advanced ventilation systems to ensure efficient containment and removal of hazardous fumes. These specialized fume hoods help laboratories maintain compliance with strict safety and environmental standards while enhancing overall operational efficiency.
Ductless (Filtered) Fume Hoods for Flexible and Clean Laboratory Airflow
Ductless and Filtered Fume Hoods
Ductless fume hoods, also known as filtered fume hoods, are advanced ventilation systems designed to provide a safe and clean laboratory environment without the need for external ducting. These fume hoods feature built-in airflow systems that filter and recirculate purified air back into the laboratory, maintaining a safe workspace while reducing energy costs and installation requirements.
Depending on the application and type of chemical used, ductless fume hoods can be equipped with a variety of specialized exhaust filters, including activated carbon or HEPA filters, to effectively capture hazardous fumes, vapors, and particulates.
Additionally, ductless fume hoods offer excellent flexibility — they can function as mobile fume hoods, allowing users to move them easily across different workstations or laboratory areas. This makes them ideal for laboratories that require versatile, energy-efficient, and portable ventilation solutions.
Custom Fume Hoods Designed to Meet Unique Laboratory Requirements
Custom Fume Hoods
When standard fume hoods do not fully meet specific laboratory needs, customers often turn to custom fume hood solutions. At Laboratory Solutions, we leverage our extensive expertise to design, manufacture, and commission large, complex, and fully tailored fume hoods that align with each client’s unique applications and safety requirements.
Our custom fume hoods are engineered to provide optimal performance, containment, and durability, ensuring complete protection for users and the laboratory environment. From specialized dimensions and airflow configurations to unique materials and integrated systems, we deliver bespoke fume hood designs that meet even the most demanding laboratory standards.
With Laboratory Solutions, you can count on innovative, reliable, and application-specific fume hood systems built to enhance safety, efficiency, and compliance in every project.
Canopy Hoods for Effective Ventilation of Heat, Steam, and Odors
Canopy Hood
Canopy hoods are specifically designed to remove non-toxic materials such as heat, steam, and odors from laboratory environments. Unlike standard fume hoods, canopy hoods are ideal for installation above large or bulky equipment that does not require a fully enclosed chamber.
These hoods are commonly used to ventilate equipment such as ovens, autoclaves, steam baths, and other heat-generating devices, helping maintain a comfortable and safe laboratory atmosphere.
Canopy hoods can be conveniently mounted on walls or suspended from ceilings, offering flexible installation options to suit different workspace layouts. They are available in powder-coated steel or stainless-steel finishes, ensuring both durability and corrosion resistance in demanding laboratory conditions.
By efficiently capturing and venting unwanted heat and vapors, canopy exhaust hoods enhance air quality, comfort, and overall laboratory safety — making them an essential component of modern laboratory ventilation systems.
Flexible Suction Arms for Targeted Fume and Contaminant Extraction
Flexible Suction Arm
A flexible suction arm—also known as an extraction arm, elephant trunk, or spot extractor—is a highly versatile solution for localized fume extraction in laboratory and industrial environments. These systems are designed to capture fumes, vapors, dust, and airborne contaminants directly at the source, preventing their spread into the workspace.
Flexible suction arms are ideal for applications requiring precise and adjustable airflow control, ensuring maximum safety and comfort for laboratory personnel. By removing harmful fumes, odors, and particulates right above the emission point, they help maintain clean air quality and reduce the risk of exposure to hazardous substances.
With their adjustable design and easy maneuverability, flexible extraction arms create an ergonomic and efficient ventilation solution, enhancing both worker protection and laboratory productivity.
Telescopic Extraction Arms for High-Temperature and Open Flame Applications
Telescopic Extraction Arm
A telescopic arm is a specialized fume extraction solution designed for laboratory and industrial environments that generate fumes, vapors, and airborne pollutants at high temperatures. These arms are particularly effective in workspaces involving open flames or heat-intensive processes, such as those produced by atomic absorption spectrometry equipment.
The telescopic design allows for precise positioning and easy adjustment, enabling users to efficiently capture contaminants directly at the source while conserving workspace. Built with heat-resistant materials, these arms ensure reliable performance and durability even in demanding environments.
By providing targeted ventilation and pollutant evacuation, telescopic extraction arms help maintain a safe, clean, and compliant laboratory atmosphere, protecting both personnel and equipment.
