It is important to verify product grade before you purchase.

You may not need laboratory grade, but know what grade and whether it has a rating or grade.

  • Standard grades are: residential, light commercial, industrial, laboratory, and special.

  • Sometimes depending on the lab the following do not need to be lab grade.

    • Electrical or power options:

    • Deck or Pedestal Outlets, single or double faced outlets boxes.
    • Power strips or Plugmold (Wiremold Product) standard or alternating circuit.
      Do you need corrosion resistance pedastals or power strips?
      Determine number out outlets in each area.
      Determine or identify the plug type for each type of lab equipment. Besure you have outlets that will fit your equipment plug style. Cover plate finish can be aluminum, epoxy coated, powder-coated or plastic Pedastal boxes, covers, and raceways can be powder-coated custom colors.
      Plugmold outlet configurations for labs are usually 6 inch on center or 12 inch on center.
      Computer and phone in a raceway must be isolated from power G4000 can do this.
      Convenient, easier to modify raceways, work well in the lab, commercial and industrial applications.
      Aluminum raceways are the most corrosion resistant, and common for industrials and some labs.
      Explosion proof fixtures are specials
      EP(explosion proof) Lights are often in hoods
      EP Outlets are special
      EP (Explosion Proof) Fans are more common

    Fume Hood Accessories:

    Fume Hoods can have many unique accessories such as fixtures, alarms, slabs to improve air flow, side shelf units, and lattice or monkey bars, remote control fixtures, sinks, steam baths, special electrical components
    Fixtures can be mounted in Fume Hood Base Cabinets, but need to be isolated.
    Fume base cabinets can be cut into for sinks, but only if not used for chemical storage.
    Acid bases used as fume hood base cabinets can have sinks in them, but should not have any metal tailpieces or piping and should be sealed except for optional venting.
    We have vent kits. Venting of bases into hoods is better than no venting; but is still not an excellent practice.
    Venting to outdoors is the first choice and best practice if venting is going to be needed.
    Venting of flammable cabinets should be to outdoors.
    Flammable cabinets should not be vented, as that defeats purpose of self-closing fuse-link doors.

    Fume Hood Fans have accessories and optional special coatings on Steel
    Special Fans of PVC - Fiberglass are available
    Fans can be Explosion Proof most are only spark resistant.
    Fan accessories include covers, vibration pads, stacks, elbows, Wyes, dampers (not recommended for fume hoods).
    Hood ducting is steel (316 SST preferred, if metal is an acceptable material.
    Ducting of PVC or fire rated fiberglass is preferred for fume hoods. Galvineal and coated steel ducting is sometimes acceptable.
    Contact us for help with fan selections and hood selection.
    Note fans must be sized to the hoods, canopy hoods or IVT, and the size of the duct size, length of the duct run is needed to calulate fan required.
    Fans must be appropriate to the work being done in the hood, we can help.
    Do not gang together hoods, as mixed chemistry in the duct can lead to unexpected consequences. Go to page link at top for more information about our Fume Hoods.

  • When adding equipment considered a mobile unit, table, or modular.

    New doors can make your lab look new, so reface do not replace.
