Proper blower selection can be determined from these exhaust requirements
and the total system static pressure loss. The enclosure must be connected to
either a dedicated blower, a house exhaust system or a dedicated filtered
exhauster, such as a Labconco FilterMate Portable Exhauster.

Labconco offers three accessory remote blowers listed in Chapter 7.

Electrical Requirements

Standard duplex electrical receptacles should be nearby for connecting the
Demonstration Hood, FilterMate Portable Exhauster, an airflow monitor,
accessory Fluorescent Light or other equipment. For your convenience both
the accessory FilterMate and accessory fluorescent light kit have auxiliary
outlet receptacles. It is required that the airflow monitor be connected
directly to the auxiliary switched outlet on the rear of the FilterMate so the
airflow monitor is ON when the blower is ON. The FilterMate auxiliary
switched outlet is rated for 8 amps.

For other blower exhaust systems, it is recommended that the airflow monitor
be switched by the same circuit as the exhaust blower. If this is not possible,
then the airflow monitor may be connected to the switched auxiliary outlet on
the accessory fluorescent light kit. The fluorescent light kit auxiliary outlet
can be used for any accessory under 8 amps.

Space Requirements

The dimensions for the different models are shown in Appendix B:
