What is a Fume Hood?

A fume hood, also known as a laboratory Ventilation Hood, is a ventilated safety enclosure designed to protect users from hazardous fumes, vapors, gases, or dust. A laboratory fume hood works by pulling contaminated air away from the workspace and expelling it through an exhaust system, ensuring clean, breathable air inside the lab.

Why is a fume hood important to an institution or lab?

A Fume Hood is one of the most essential pieces of laboratory safety equipment. It protects students, researchers, and teachers from exposure to hazardous fumes, vapors, and dust by safely exhausting contaminated air. Installing a chemical fume hood ensures:

  1. Protecting individuals from inhaling toxic or flammable fumes.
  2. Meet Safety standards for modern laboratories.
  3. Fire and Explosion Prevention when using volatile chemicals.
  4. Contain accidental spills and chemical splashes.
  5. Provide a controlled environment for hazardous reactions.

Categories of Fume Hoods

Based on Air Volume/Operation

Open by-pass Fume Hoods

Designed for constant air volume systems, they ensure consistent airflow, stable ventilation, and limit face velocity spikes to a maximum of 3.5× when the sash is closed, providing reliable lab safety.

Low Constant Volume Fume Hoods

The Low Constant Volume Fume Hood reduces exhaust air by 40–60%, making it more energy-efficient than conventional hoods while maintaining a safe environment for handling hazardous chemicals.

Restricted By-Pass Fume Hoods

The Restricted By-Pass Fume Hood is designed for Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems to ensure constant face velocity while using less exhaust air, offering safe, energy-efficient performance ideal for modern labs.

Auxiliary Air Fume Hoods

The Auxiliary Air Fume Hood provides up to 70% of exhaust air via a separate system, ensuring proper ventilation in labs with insufficient makeup air.

From ISRO to DRDO and from NIPER to IISER, we take pride in partnering with some of the nation’s most reputed institutions.
