Summary:
The HEMCO UniFlow Dual Entry Fume Hood allows access from both the front and rear while ensuring safe containment and exhaust of fumes through its durable, chemical-resistant, and seamless composite resin construction.
Key Takeaways:
- Flexible Access and Safety: Allows dual-sided access while isolating fumes, ideal for labs with instructors and students or for handling large equipment.
- Durable, Non-Metallic Build: Made from chemical-resistant, flame-retardant composite resin with seamless construction and no metallic hardware.
- Customizable Features: Includes horizontal slide glass doors, vapor-proof lighting, and optional accessories like airflow monitors, plumbing, and exhaust systems.
The HEMCO UniFlow Dual Entry Fume Hoods are designed to allow convenient access from the front and rear of the hood. Offered in widths of 48”, 60”, 72”, or 96” and depth dimensions of 30”, 36”, or 48”, these hoods feature a constant volume (air bypass) design. UniFlow Fume Hoods are constructed entirely of chemical resistant, flame retardant, non-metallic composite resin featuring our exclusive “Unitized” construction. The fume chamber is molded one piece seamless, and the exterior is laminated to the liner without screws, bolts, rivets, or other metallic hardware.
Dual Entry Hood Includes an Array of Features
The hood includes horizontal slide glass sash doors, a vapor-proof light and switch, a ceiling baffle, and a removable front access panel. A wide selection of optional accessories including plumbing and electrical services, airflow monitor, side windows, clear acrylic baffles, worksurfaces, cabinets or tables, and exhaust systems are available.
Whether an instructor performs an experiment on one side and students observe on the other side or large equipment is used from one side and maintenance service is performed from the other side, the Dual Entry Hood will safely isolate, contain, and exhaust fumes and meet airflow requirements. This type of hood would typically be located on a lab furniture island or within a wall between two rooms. However, only one side of the hood can be opened at any given time.
