FumeGardNU-162
Conventional Polypropylene Fume Hood

CONVENTIONAL AIRFLOW PATTERN | TESTED TO ASHRAE 110-2016 | POLYPROPYLENE CONSTRUCTION | CONFIGURABLE AND CUSTOMIZABLE

The NU-162 combines the protection of a traditional fume hood with the corrosion-resistant properties of polypropylene to meet the needs of laboratories performing procedures with specialized demands. Laboratories working in high acid environments, in the fields of trace metal analysis, materials analysis, toxicology, semi-conductor development, prototyping, production, etching and plating operations may benefit from a fume hood constructed of stress-relieved white polypropylene instead of metal materials. While the basis of design is engineered to meet the performance requirements of ASHRAE 110-2016, this model can be built in multiple widths and depths and configured for a specific application’s needs.
