High Performance Fume Hoods

Stable Vortex II™

The Only 34" Deep High Performance - Low Flow Fume Hood

Click to see enlarged image

Fume Hoods typically exhaust large volumes of air at great expense. The energy to filter, move, cool or heat this air is one of the biggest energy loads in most lab facilities. Consequently, fume hoods are a major factor in making your laboratory four to five times more energy intensive than a typical commercial space.

The Stable Vortex II™ is the ideal solution for both new construction and renovation projects with its simpler design that offers easier and less expensive installation.

Benefits of a 34" Deep Fume Hood Include:

• Easier renovation will fit through a standard 36" doorway
• Does not require dis-assembly and re-assembly during installation
• Requires less labor
• Reduced aisle space requirements

High Performance + Safety + Energy Savings = The Stable Vortex II™

• Increased user safety
• Risk mitigation
• Designed to operate @ 50FPM
• Consumes up to 60% less energy
• Zero spills ASHRAE performance tested at unrestricted full vertical sash opening in less than ideal conditions @ 50FPM
• EPA tested and approved as the only 34" deep high performance low flow fume hood
• Qualifies for energy savings LEED's Points

DESIGN

Every feature of the LOC High Performance Fume Hood is specifically designed to enhance the overall robustness of the hood. The baffle is designed using Reynolds Numbers to distribute energy required to maintain a Stable Vortex™ and the bell mouth duct collar is designed and positioned for optimum efficiency.

The Face opening of the hood has several innovative designs including:

• Specially designed lower airfoil
• Aerodynamic sash pull
• Side airfoils that are rounded to create an aerodynamic flow
• Upper deflector to help control cross drafts
• Ergonomically designed

Designed for Safety, all LOC High Performance Fume Hoods come with a full view combination horizontal/vertical sash. The sash has four (4) top hung laminated safety glass horizontal sliding panels and the sash assembly is counterbalanced for easy up/down movement of the sash.

Designed Ergonomically for user comfort and productivity.

For maximum viewing of the hood interior, a fixed viewing panel is located at the top of the sash opening offering the operator a clear view of the hood interior.

Double wall construction of the hood superstructure allows for installation of service fixtures and routing of interior plumbing and electrical lines.

The interior of the LOC High Performance Fume Hood is lined with white "Resin-Chem" and the baffle assembly is fabricated from aluminum and coated with chemical resistant epoxy paint. *Other liner materials available as an option.

Access to the interior wall is provided through panels on the interior side walls and by removing the exterior side panel.

Fume hood exhaust flow is quick and easy to adjust.
The REV-VFV-1 damper is a linear characterized butterfly damper. It gives equal increments of flow per increment of travel.

Equipped with an Airflow Probe installed for fume hood exhaust measurement which provides the economy of single point total measurement, but with 10 point accuracy.

Airflow volume control system measures the fume and automatically adjusts the baffle airflow volume to maintain the fume hood containment. The baffle airflow volume control system adjusts for environmental and usage conditions such as sash movement, fume hood loading, room pressure fluctuations and cross drafts.

The CFM monitor provides an accurate and convenient method of verifying fume hood exhaust volume from the front of the fume hood.
