Chapter 4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions


1. Unique sash provides maximum visibility.

Vertical-rising sashes may be raised from a
closed to 58.81" operating height; this feature is
available on 4', 5', 6', and 8' floor mount models.
Exhaust volume, and blower sizing is based on
the rear sash being closed and the front sash
opened. For horizontal sashes on 8', 10', 12',
and 16' models, the opening is half the total
opening and exhaust volume is based on half the
total visible opening for the 8' model and
exhaust volume is one quarter the total visible
opening for 10', 12', and 16' models. The actual
vertical opening is 68.15".

2. By-pass airflow design ensures relatively stable

face velocities.

3. Large usable interior work depth and

interior height of 48" at the front of the liner
provides ample working space.(Not shown)

4. Baffles (not shown) direct airflow to the rear of

the interior to provide efficient airflow. The
baffles may be removed for cleaning purposes
only. Three of the four baffles are adjustable.
Should you require more airflow at the bottom
for heavier than air gases, then open up the
lower baffle. Should you require more airflow
at the top, then open up the upper baffle for
lighter than air gases.

5. Exterior access cover plates are removable for

easy access to plumbing valves when access
through the sides is not available.

6. Lift-Away™ front panel provides easy access

to electrical wiring, sash weights, and lighting
fixtures.

7. Energy efficient fluorescent lighting is located

behind a laminated safety glass shield mounted
to the top of the hood. The factory-wired instant
start T8 lighting is serviceable from outside the
hood cavity.

8. Low mounted, factory-wired light and blower

switches are ADA compliant.
