Location
Glove box should be placed on a stable, level base stand near an appropriate electrical
receptacle. The base stand must be capable of supporting 500 lbs minimum, and the height should
provide a comfortable working position through glove ports (normally 35" to 37" height for
standing position).
Connections, Exhaust
NOTE: It is the user’s responsibility to determine if the exhaust should be vented to
outside the building. If it is ducted to the outside, duct restrictions should not exceed 0.5 inches
water gauge static pressure at 50 CFM.
Glove Attachment
With glove thumbs up and right/left orientation, secure the gloves in place on the glove
ports by stretching the beaded glove cuff into the groove nearest the window. Install the 8"
diameter O-ring onto the outer groove over the glove surface.
