Product Description
A laboratory fume hood is a ventilated enclosure where hazardous materials can be handled safely. The purpose of the hood is to contain contaminants and prevent their escape into the laboratory. This is accomplished by drawing (by air flow) contaminants within the hood's work area away from the user thereby preventing and minimizing inhalation and contact with hazardous materials.
To create airflow into the hood, an exhaust blower "pulls" air from the laboratory room into and through the hood and exhaust system . A baffle, airfoil, and other aerodynamically designed components control the patterns of air moving into and through the hood.
Fume Hoods must be located away from heavy traffic aisles and doorways so that persons exiting the lab do not have to pass in front of the fume hood. The potentially dangerous portion of an experiment is usually conducted in a fume hood. Many lab fires and explosions originate in fume hood and a fume hood located adjacent to a path of egress could trap someone in the lab.
There must be two exits from rooms where new fume hoods are to be installed. If this is not feasible, the fume hood must be situated on the side of the room furthest from the door. A fire or chemical hazard, both of which often start in a fume hood, can render an exit impassible. For this reason, all labs with fume hoods are required to maintain two unblocked routes of egress.

•Fume hoods should be located within the laboratory to avoid cross currents at the fume hood face due to heating cooling, or ventilation supply or exhaust diffusers.Cross currents outside a hood can nullify or divert air flow onto a hood, negatively affecting its capture ability.
•Sufficient makeup air must be available within the laboratory to permit fume hoods to operate at their specified face velocities. A fume hood exhausts a substantial amount of air. Therefore, additional makeup air must be brought onto the room to maintain a proper air balance.
• Windows in labs that have fume hoods must be fixed closed. Breezes coming in through open lab windows can adversely affect the proper functioning of the hood. Turbulence caused by these wind currents can easily bring the contaminated air inside the hood back into the laboratory.
•Safety devices such as deluge showers, eye wash stations, fire extinguishers, and fire blankets should be located convenient to the fume hood operating personnel.
•Fume hoods shall not have an on/off control accessible in the laboratory, unless the lab has an alternate exhaust ventilation system or the exhaust is being filtered through a charcoal or HEPA filter. Fume hoods are an integral part of the entire laboratory's air balancing system which must be maintained. Labs must be maintained under positive pressure and when a fume hood is turned off the lab can develop positive pressure.
Close The Sash
When an employee is not working inside the hood, the sash should remain closed.
Avoid Storing Chemicals In The Hood
Employees should never store any chemicals inside the hood when it is not in use. Chemicals should instead be stored in industrial furniture cabinets equipped to hold hazardous chemicals. However, large equipment can be stored in the hood as long as it is on top of blocks to allow air flow under the equipment.
Report Any Problems
Promptly report any issues you have experienced with the fume hood to a supervisor. It is important that a supervisor takes this fume hood out of service until it can be repaired to ensure the safety of employees.
What should do if accident accurs?
No one likes to think that an accident may occur. However, if it does, it is always better to be prepared and know what the proper response looks like.
The most important step to take in the immediate aftermath of a fume hood accident is its response. Take any and all actions to safeguard people working in the lab first and foremost. That may include putting out any fires, containing spills, evacuating the area, attending to the injured and contacting emergency services.
After the accident, an investigation must immediately begin. This will prevent important data from being lost and witness forgetting important details. By determining whether safety procedures were followed and whether equipment worked as it should have, new protocols can be put into place to prevent similar future accidents.
