Proper blower selection can be determined from these
exhaust requirements and the total system static
pressure loss. Contact Labconco Customer Service for
assistance in sizing a remote blower system.
Filter Pack Requirements
Contact your local EPA or NRC office to determine if
exhaust filtration is required. If required, these filter
packs should be located as close as possible to the hood
to expose as little of the ductwork system as possible to
the radiochemicals being filtered. Consult your Safety
Officer directly for specific filter ratings on
radiochemicals being used.
Electrical Requirements
The Protector Radioisotope Hood models feature
internal wiring for the fluorescent light assembly and
light switch. All internal wiring is terminated at the
single point wiring junction box for hook-up by a
qualified electrician. The blower switch, and light
switch wires are also terminated at the single point
wiring junction box for hook-up by a qualified
electrician. Refer to Chapter 3: Getting Started and
Appendix C: Protector Radioisotope Specifications for
the wiring diagram for proper electrical installation.
