Congratulations on your purchase of a Labconco
Protector® Stainless Steel Perchloric Acid Laboratory
Fume Hood. The Protector® Perchloric Acid
Laboratory Fume Hood is designed to efficiently
ventilate procedures using Perchloric Acid. It is the
result of Labconco’s more than 50 years experience in
manufacturing fume hoods, and users like you
suggested many of its features to us.
The Labconco Protector Stainless Steel Perchloric Acid
Fume Hood has been engineered to provide maximum
safety in a laboratory while using Perchloric acid of all
types. Usage of materials other than Perchloric acid
is not recommended. Perchloric acid is a strong
oxidizing agent, and should not be used in
combination with any organic material as the
possibility of a hazardous chemical reaction or
explosion could develop. The Protector Perchloric
Acid Hood offers many unique features to enhance
safety, performance, and visibility. 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 fume hoods operate, please
review Chapter 4: Performance Features and Safety
Precautions before you begin working in the fume
hood. Even if you are an experienced fume hood user,
please review Chapter 5: Using Your Fume Hood,
which describes your Protector Perchloric Acid Hood’s
features so that you can use the hood efficiently.
