Chapter 3: Getting Started

Connecting the Electrical
Supply Source to the
Protector Perchloric Acid
Fume Hood


Prior to connecting any electrical wiring to the fume
hood structure, refer to the hood identification plate for
the proper electrical requirements of your specific
model.










The identification plate, model number, serial number,
and electrical connection boxes are accessible from the
front of the fume hood by removing the front panel.

The Protector Perchloric Acid Hood is normally wired
for 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 20 Amp or 230Volt, 50 Hz, 10
Amp electrical service. The number of circuits varies
depending on the model. All of the electrical
connections are terminated at the single point internal
junction box for hook-up by a qualified electrician. The
single point internal junction box is used for the
connection of the lights, blower, and duplex outlets.
Refer to the wiring diagram for your Protector
Perchloric Acid Hood in Appendix C: Protector
Perchloric Acid Fume Hood Specifications.








WARNING: The building electrical supply system
for Protector Perchloric Acid Hoods should include
overload protection. A switch or circuit breaker
should be in close proximity to the equipment and
within easy reach of the operator. The switch or
circuit breaker is to be marked as the disconnecting
device for the equipment. Consult the NEC-2002 for
proper installation.
