AirClean Systems, North American specialist in ductless containment has introduced a new line of ductless fume hoods.
The Endeavour product line incorporates much of the advanced technology of AirClean Systems’ Independence fume hood with the cost effective backbone of the company’s AC4000 folding and sliding-sash ductless fume hoods. The fume hoods feature the easy-to-use AirSafe NXT automatic safety controller for added operator safety.
This colour touchscreen controller automatically increases or decreases blower speed to maintain the user’s pre-set face velocity, ensuring airflow is within standard operating parameters.
The current face velocity is displayed at all times.
AirSafe NXT also monitors the bonded carbon filtration bed, alerting the user audibly and visually should filter saturation occur.
AirSafe NXT displays the approved chemical class for the hood and waits for a confirmation from the user before allowing the hood to be used. In addition to safety features, AirSafe NXT also provides a multi-language and multi-unit capability not found in most ductless hoods.
With the press of a button, users can switch the controller language between English, Spanish, French and German. Airflow can be displayed in both linear feet per minute (LFM) and meters per second (m/s). Endeavour ductless hoods eliminate the need for costly installation, ductwork and over-built HVAC systems associated with traditional fume hood use within the laboratory.
An on-board energy meter, accessed via AirSafe NXT, displays the real-time and life-time energy use of the hood. Endeavour’s rolled-entry design combined with AirZone baffling provides laminar flow within the cabinet, preventing eddy currents and keeping fumes or particulate from escaping the hood.
Seamless, thermally welded polypropylene construction means the Endeavour will never rust, providing years of service life.
All electronics and blowers are post-filter, so they are never exposed to chemicals used in the hood. All AirClean Systems ductless fume hoods are made in the US and ship fully assembled, requiring minimal installation. Simply place on a cabinet, stand or bench top and plug into a standard 110V or 220V outlet.
