Metrolabs: Your Partner in Safe and Efficient Fume Hood Solutions

Protecting You and Your Research in the Lab

At Metrolabs, we understand the critical role of fume hoods in safeguarding laboratory personnel from hazardous fumes, vapors, and dusts. We offer a comprehensive range of fume hoods designed to meet the specific needs of your research and ensure a safe and efficient laboratory environment.

Fume Hood Essentials:

Safe Airflow Management: Our ducted fume hoods employ powerful exhaust systems to remove harmful contaminants from the work area and vent them safely outdoors. This protects researchers from inhalation hazards.
Variety of Applications: We offer fume hoods in various sizes and constructions (stainless steel, polypropylene, etc.) to accommodate diverse chemical processes.
Compliance & Safety: Our fume hoods adhere to industry standards (like ASHRAE 110 and EN 14175) and prioritize user safety with features like airflow alarms and easy-to-clean surfaces.

Beyond the Basics:

Vertical Sash Design: Our fume hoods feature vertically-sliding sashes for optimal access and user comfort while maintaining containment.
Optional Accessories: Customize your fume hood with features like rinse sinks, tank heaters, and gas service lines to optimize your workflow.
Expert Guidance: Our team of fume hood specialists will help you select the right model for your needs and ensure proper installation and operation.

Why Choose Metrolabs Fume Hoods?

Safety First: Our fume hoods prioritize the well-being of laboratory personnel by effectively containing and exhausting hazardous fumes.
Performance & Efficiency: Our high-quality construction and powerful exhaust systems ensure optimal fume capture and airflow control.
Customization Options: We offer a variety of sizes, materials, and features to tailor your fume hood to your specific needs.

Contact Metrolabs today to discuss your fume hood requirements. We’ll help you select the perfect solution to protect your researchers and ensure the success of your research endeavors.

Additional Considerations:

Avoid Ductless Fume Hoods: While ductless fume hoods offer a lower upfront cost, they recirculate filtered air back into the lab, potentially exposing personnel to residual fumes. We recommend ducted fume hoods for optimal safety and compliance.
Fume Hood Safety Practices: Metrolabs advocates for proper fume hood operation to maximize safety. This includes keeping the sash lowered as much as possible when working and maintaining proper face velocity for effective fume capture.

We look forward to partnering with you to create a safe and productive research environment!

Fume hoods are local ventilation devices or cupboards that are designed to limit exposure to toxic fumes, vapors or dusts. A fume hood is typically a workbench arrangement, enclosed on all 5 sides of a work area, the bottom of which is typically at standing work height.

DUCTLESS FUME HOODS

A Ductless fume hood is a perfect combination of a suitable scrubbing system in place along with a filtration method suitable for the fumes generated. It uses carbon filters to remove fumes and vapours from a laboratory. Carbon filtration, an advanced technology used within a ductless fume hood, is an eco-friendly choice for both the user and the environment. Instead of funnelling the fumes outside, the fume hood filters out the harmful fumes and then returns the clean air back into the laboratory. Ductless fume hoods are also energy and cost-efficient and even offer electronic monitoring in order to routinely test the performance of the filtration system.

Compact and dynamic. Mobile hood with wheels possible.
All dangerous chemical fumes can be neutralised.
No ducting is required. Pure air is exhausted from the system.
Inbuilt, In-situ scrubbing system for chemical vapours
We supply IQ / OQ documents.
We support validation and we provide validation protocol for periodical validations.

More Details

CHEMICAL FUME HOODS

A Chemical fume hood is used in laboratories where dangerous chemicals are handled in the workplace. This type of hood is specifically designed to allow laboratory workers to work with these chemicals without exposing themselves to the harmful drawbacks associated with them. Featuring quality steel and a design that exceeds SEFA standards, this unit will ensure workers can work with chemicals safely. The innovative design of the fume hood allows users to have a full view of their work and laboratory through a sash.

ACID RESISTANT FUME HOODS

Acid Resistant Fume Hoods (Perclhoric/ Nitric/ Sulphuric/ Hyderochloric) Fume Hood is designed specifically to be used with perchloric acid in order to prevent perchlorate salt formations. These steel devices feature a bench top and are available in a variety of widths in order to fit any lab environment. The grade of steel used in the design of Perchloric Acid Fume Hoods provides the ultimate protection from the perchloric acid.

CANOPY FUME HOODS

The canopy fume hood is a ventilation system for non-toxic materials that removes heat steam and odors. These units are often used over ovens or steam baths and are mounted to a wall or the ceiling for easy removal and accessibility. These types of fume hoods can also be customized to fit the exact space in a laboratory in order to effectively ventilate the area.

LOW FLOW FUME HOODS

A Low Air Flow fume hood operates at a lower rate than a standard unit meaning they take up less space in a lab and can save up to 40% on an energy bill. They reduce energy intake by reducing the amount of conditioned air required to fill a room. You can check with an expert to determine if a low air flow fume hood is the right option for your lab.

VARIABLE AIR FUME HOODS

A Variable Air Volume Fume Hood has control over the air that is exhausted from the unit and reduces the costs of the device by maintaining a constant velocity. These items are sold to be used with exhaust control systems that other manufacturers provide. They come with a sash in a full view version that allows for the user to have a clear line-of-sight while still protected as they work. It also provides a great deal of interior lighting to assist with visual clarity.

EXTRACTOR ARM FUME HOODS

An Extractor Arm fume hood is a local exhaust ventilation device that ventilate local fumes, odors and air streams in a lab. The typical size of an extractor arm fume hood is 2”, 3” or 4”. Each of these sizes can be mounted on a bench, wall or ceiling. The variety of designs are to ensure the perfect fit for any laboratory or workplace.

FUME HOOD ACCESSORIES

Common accessories include lab blowers, ventilation ducting in PVC, aluminum, stainless steel, sheet metal and lattice rod assemblies for distillation rack applications. Each accessory is specifically designed so the fume hood is easier to use for the lab worker and safer for the materials in the lab environment.
