ISO 9001-2008 Certi ed Company Fume Hood Ducting and Exhaust system Ductwork connected to fume hoods may be arranged in a how different hood exhaust fumes will react when mixed in the variety of patterns depending on requirements. Generally, ductwork. Rigid PVC ductwork is recognized as an excellent the best exhaust system involves the shortest duct length fume hood exhaust duct material. The smooth interior surface and the fewest elbows. Duct size, length, and number of reduces static pressure loss and chemical waste build up, and elbows affect static pressure loss and blower efficiency.

2 PVC is extremely resistant to a wide variety of reagents. For Ideally, each fume hood should have its own ducting and some applications flexible PVC lined duct provides adequate blower to maximize hood flexibility and reduce danger of service and can significantly reduce installation costs. When backdraft from other hoods. planning exhaust ducting, duct size, length, number of bends, and exhaust material must be considered. Common or manifold ductwork designs can be used, Fume hoods exhaust large quantities of Laboratory air, and to provided duct and blower have been sized properly.
