Optional Automatic Sash Closing System
 

The electronic occupancy sensor system closes the sash automatically when not in use, or within a timed interval when the operator moves away from the fume hood.

Please see our Safeguard Series fume hood specifications and documentation for more information about:

• Self-Closing Sash Options
• Viewing Panels
• Sash Operation Options (Vertical, Horizontal, Combination, Split-Post, etc)

Our low flow fume hoods can result in considerable energy cost reduction and ensure operator safety.  Designed to operate from 60-100 feet per minute face velocities.  They have been tested as low as 50 feet per minute.

Our low volume option can result in considerable energy savings by reducing the sash opening size.

An Automatic Sash Operating System can be incorporated that lowers and/or rises automatically which can enhance safety and dramatically increase the efficiency of Variable Air Volume (VAV) fume hood systems.
