Introducing the LOC High Performance Fume Hood—a top-tier solution designed for labs that demand exceptional safety and efficiency. Trilogy Fume Hoods are designed to provide maximum personal protection at an economical cost by operating at a low velocity and reducing exhaust volume.
The LOC Trilogy hood functions at an exhaust volume of less than half of a conventional hood. Not only does it save you money by reducing the air that needs to be conditioned and exhausted, but it also reduces the size of HVAC equipment, saving on the original capital investment and making you highly efficient from start to finish.
Our Trilogy High Performance Fume Hood
The Trilogy high performance fume hood provides three essential components: high performance, energy savings, and safety. With its engineered baffle system for proper air distribution and constant face velocity, the Trilogy delivers maximum protection while operating at significantly reduced exhaust volumes compared to conventional hoods.
