Do not work with chemicals in this hood without the
exhaust system running. Do not store chemicals in a fume
hood.

Perchloric acid use in this hood is prohibited.

High level radioisotope materials are prohibited for usage
in this hood.

DO NOT PLACE ITEMS ON THE AIRFOIL AS THEY
WILL EFFECT THE HOODS ABILITY TO CONTAIN.
AVOID CROSS DRAFTS AND LIMIT TRAFFIC IN FRONT
OF THE HOOD. AIR DISTURBANCES CREATED MAY

The use of heat-generating equipment in this hood without

The Protector Laboratory XLE Hood should be certified by
a qualified certification technician before it is initially used.
The hood should be re-certified whenever it is relocated,
serviced or at least annually thereafter.

Ensure that the unit is connected to electrical service in
accordance with local and national electrical codes. Failure
to do so may create a fire or electrical hazard. Do not
remove or service any electrical components without first
disconnecting the hood from electrical service.

Proper operation of the fume hood depends largely upon
the hood’s location and the operator’s work habits.
Consult the Reference Manual in Appendix D.
