Connecting to the Exhaust System (If Applicable)

WARNING: The weight of any exhaust ductwork system
must be supported independently of the glove box
superstructure or damage may occur.

The exhaust system should be installed by a qualified
HVAC contractor.


The Protector Filtered Glove Box has been manufactured to exhaust into the
laboratory in its standard configuration. To remove chemical fumes and
odors not trapped by the HEPA or ULPA filter, the glove box can be
exhausted to the outside (see Figure 3-1), or connected to an accessory
FilterMate Portable Exhauster with carbon filters. See Chapter 7 for
accessories including: Thimble Exhaust Connection, FilterMate Portable
Exhauster and separate Exhaust Kit, Positive Pressure Conversion Kit,
Recirculation Kit, or Hard Duct Connection Kit.

Consult Labconco Customer Service if you require help sizing a remote
blower for the exhaust volume and the duct work system (static pressure loss
listed in Chapter 2).


To ensure compatibility, the selected exhaust duct material
should match the enclosure, procedures and chemical
applications.
