For thimble-ducted glove boxes, the proper remote blower selection can be
determined from these exhaust requirements as the remote blower only needs
to be sized for the static pressure loss of the ductwork system. The thimble
ducted exhaust blower should be sized for 25% additional airflow. When
exhausting a glove box to the outside, it should be connected to a dedicated
remote blower.
Labconco offers accessory remote blowers listed in Chapter 7. Contact
Labconco for blower sizing assistance.
When a glove box is connected to a remote blower exhaust system, an
adjustable damper (or valve) should be installed in the duct to control the
airflow volumes properly. See Chapter 7 for Exhaust Dampers.
Electrical Requirements
Electrical service should be nearby for connecting the glove box, and
accessory equipment. The glove box is rated 115V, 8A or 230V, 4A or
100V, 8A. A convenience duplex outlet is located inside the glove box and is
rated for 115V, 5A or 230V, 2A or 100V, 5A. Additional power strip
accessories are available for connection to the duplex outlet and are listed in
Chapter 7.
Space Requirements
