versely aﬀ ect the hoods ability to contain fumes.

B. Place the hood on a level, stable surface appropriate for use with your experiments.

2. Operation

• Plug hood 8’ power cord into modular receptacle on rear of fume hood and into 115 Volt outlet of a 15

ampere or greater electrical service.

• Turn on power switch.

• Your hood is now ready for use.

Notes:

The Fume Hood is often the primary control device for protecting laboratory workers when

working with toxic and/or ﬂ ammable chemicals. OSHA’s Laboratory Standard (29 CF 1910.1450)

requires that fume hoods be maintained and function properly when used.

Before using the Fume Hood:

• Make sure that you understand how the Fume Hood works.

• You should be trained to use it properly.

• Know the hazards of the chemical you are working with; refer to the chemical (MSDS) Material

Data Safety Sheet if you are unsure.

• Ensure that the Fume Hood is turned on.

• Make sure that the sash is open to the proper operating level, which is usually indicated by arrows on

the frame.

• Make sure that the air gauge indicates that the air ﬂ ow is within the required range.

When using the Fume Hood:

• Never allow your head to enter the plane of the hood opening. For example, for vertical rising

sashes,keep the sash below your face; for horizontal sliding sashes, keep the sash positioned in

front of you and work around the side of the sash.

• Use appropriate eye protection.

• Be sure that nothing blocks the airﬂ ow through the baﬄ es or through the baﬄ e exhaust slots.

• Elevate large equipment (e.g. a centrifuge) at least (2) inches oﬀ the base of the hood interior.

• Keep all materials inside the hood at least (6) inches from the sash opening. When not working in the

hood, close the sash.

• Do not permanently store any chemicals inside the hood.

• Promptly report any hood that is not functioning properly to your supervisor. The sash should be closed

and the hood “tagged” and taken out of service until repairs can be completed.

• When using extremely hazardous chemicals, understand your laboratory’s action plan in case an

emergency, such as a power failure, occurs

3. Filter Installation

Filter Model #52004, (2) individually wrapped ﬁ lters in a (2) pack box.

• Pivot the spring ﬁ lter retainer latches to open position.

• Remove ﬁ lter from individual plastic wrapper.

your initials.

• (See 5. FILTER CHANGE)

4. Filter Change

• Carbon ﬁ lter(s) must be changed on a regular scheduled basis to maintain safe operation.

• Unwrap the new ﬁ lter, weigh the ﬁ lter and log the weight. Periodically weigh the ﬁ lter and when

it has absorbed 25% of the original weight, it is time to change the ﬁ lter. Once you have done this

process two or three times, you will know how long the ﬁ lter lasts for your process and you can

add this to your maintenance procedures.

• Wear proper safety equipment to change spent ﬁ lters. Minimum equipment would be impervious

gloves and safety glasses.

• Dispose of spent ﬁ lter(s) according to applicable safety and environmental regulations.

• Reorder ﬁ lter #52004
