  • Page 4: Principles Of Operation

    PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION Air is drawn into the cupboard at the working aperture A below the sliding sash at a velocity high enough to ensure entrainment of any fumes/odours given off by the processes carried out within the cupboard. The fumes from within the cupboard are carried by the moving body of air through the cupboard B to the pre-filter C and main filter D to absorb vapours and other noxious fumes/odours before being expelled by the exhaust fan E as clean air F.

    The work tray is white polypropylene as standard. Sash Operation: The vertical sliding laminated glass sash of the AIRONE 1000RS/E fume cupboard is suspended and counterweighted providing added advantages over fixed-sash or folding sash fume-hoods. E.g. the sliding laminated glass sash can be closed and this provides protection to operators.
