Operating the Vertical-Rising Glass Sash

S
Because of the Protector Radioisotope Hood's counterbalanced sash mechanism, it
will take only a few pounds of force to move the sash up or down, and you can
operate the sash smoothly with one or two hands positioned any where along the
handle. The glass sash is suitable for use with Perchloric acid. The vertical-rising
sash may be raised to a maximum 28" operating height. The airflow requirements
should be sized for the 28" operating height; if using sash stops then the airflow
requirements can be reduced by approximately 40% at 18" or approximately 50%
at 15".

Operating the Blower

S
Your Protector Fume Hood utilizes a remote style blower, which can be activated
by turning the blower switch to "ON." You can validate the hood performance by
watching smoke drawn into the hood face opening.

Operating the Lights

S
Your Protector Fume Hood utilizes a factory-wired fluorescent light to illuminate
the hood interior. Optional direct replacement LED T8 bulbs are available per
Appendix A. Simply turn the light switch to "ON" to operate.
