Lab equipment is available in various configurations to match the wide range of substances and procedures that different labs use. It's tough to find the right equipment for your application because of its complexity. This assessment will assist you in determining whether a portable/ductless fume hood is the best option for you. Portable/ductless fume hoods are ideal for light to medium-duty labs that use ten or fewer chemicals regularly, as well as compounds in tiny amounts of 500 mL or less. They function best in labs with experienced and well-trained lab employees and in facilities where venting outside is impossible. Employees should not be exposed to contaminants for over two or three hours per day.

Kewaunee combines manufacturing and infrastructure expertise with industry 4.0 lab technology to provide next-generation laboratories to our clients. Since our humble origins in 1906 as a global pioneer in the design and manufacture of laboratory furniture, we've come a long way. We're proud to be the go-to business for turnkey laboratory solutions today. Thanks to our technological innovation, we have over 5,000 customers that rely on us to establish future labs. In the early 1900s, Europe, particularly Germany, controlled the laboratory equipment and furniture market in the United States. A group of investors gathered in Kewaunee, Wisconsin, to change the situation.

Toxins can lodge in your lungs or enter your bloodstream if you breathe in dangerous chemicals. While breathing vapours may initially produce dizziness, it can lead to liver damage. By filtering the air inside the laboratory, a fume hood creates a barrier between lab employees and dangerous chemicals. Ducted or ductless fume hoods are available. Ducted fume hoods take the air from the lab and disperse it into the surrounding environment. While constant air volume (CAV) systems are used in many ducted hoods, Variable Air Volume (VAV) is a new generation of hoods that save energy. As the fume hood sash is closed, VAV systems minimize the volume of the air vent.

Spill containment lips keep minor liquid spills contained. These several-inch-wide lips serve as collecting basins for spills and breakage. These are the new standard for fume hoods, but they aren't standard on older hoods. For older hoods, however, extra spill containment materials can be obtained. Even though fume hoods are necessary, they cannot protect against laboratory hazards. Extremely dangerous work will necessitate the use of, especially specialized equipment. Fume hoods are a must-have piece of equipment.
