Chapter 1:

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Labconco TXE. Your enclosure provides
personnel protection through superior containment. It is the result of Labconco’s
more than 50 years of experience in manufacturing fume hoods and more than 30
years of experience in manufacturing filtered enclosures.

These enclosures will effectively contain toxic or noxious particulates when
properly installed and operated. Each enclosure uses a single HEPA filter, which
is rated at least 99.99% efficient for 0.3-micron particles. The TXE offers many
unique features to enhance safety, performance, and energy savings. To take full
advantage of them, please acquaint yourself with this manual and keep it handy for
future reference. If you are unfamiliar with how high performance HEPA filtered
enclosures operate, please review Chapter 4: High Performance Features and
Safety Precautions before you begin working in the enclosure. Even if you are an
experienced user, please review Chapter 5: Using Your HEPA Filtered Enclosure,
which describes the TXE features so that you can use the filtered enclosure
efficiently.

If the unit is not operated as specified in this manual it may
impair the protection provided by the unit.

Si l'unité n'est pas utilisée comme spécifié dans ce manuel il
peut diminuer la protection fournie par l'unité.
