Chapter 4: Performance Features and Safety Precautions

Safety Precautions

Although the floor-mounted
laboratory hood has been
engineered to maintain optimum
operator safety, caution should
always be used while working in
the hood. Prior to using the floor-
mounted hood, check to make sure
that the exhaust blower is
operating and that air is entering
the hood at its specified face
velocity.

USE GOOD HOUSEKEEPING IN
THE HOOD AT ALL TIMES.
CLEAN UP SPILLS
IMMEDIATELY WITH A MILD
DETERGENT. PERIODICALLY
CLEAN HOOD INTERIOR,
INCLUDING FLUORESCENT
LIGHT GLASS PANEL.
REPLACE BURNED OUT LIGHT
BULBS TO MAINTAIN
MAXIMUM ILLUMINATION.

DO NOT OVERLOAD THE WORK
AREA WITH APPARATUS OR
WORK MATERIAL. THE SAFE
OPERATION OF THE
LABORATORY FLOOR-
MOUNTED HOOD IS BASED
UPON HAVING PROPER
AIRFLOW THROUGH THE
STRUCTURE. ELEVATE FLOOR
MOUNTED OBJECTS UP 2 TO 3
INCHES TO ALLOW A FLOW OF
AIR UNDER THE OBJECT AND
INTO THE LOWER REAR
BAFFLE EXHAUST SLOT.
