Why use a recirculating fume cupboard? When handling chemicals, your health may be at risk due to the release of toxic vapours or harmful dust. To protect yourself and your immediate environment, it is essential to use a recirculating fume cupboard. This type of fume cupboard, fitted with a particulate filter (such as an activated carbon filter) or a HEPA filter, filters contaminated air before releasing it back into the room. This prevents the dispersion of hazardous substances into the atmosphere. Why choose a Labopur® recirculating fume cupboard? Labopur® fume cupboards are designed to ensure optimal protection against toxic vapours. Manufactured in France, they are tested according to strict procedures and certified to international standards (such as standard 17242). These fume cupboards are ideal for environments where external air extraction is not possible. Their air recirculation system purifies the air directly on site, thereby ensuring a safe working environment that complies with safety requirements. What are the advantages of a Class 1 fume cupboard? A Class 1 fume cupboard provides the best protection against toxic vapours - Enhanced safety: Equipped with an additional activated carbon filter per filtration column, it provides effective protection against toxic vapours and hazards associated with chemical handling. System designed not to exceed 1% of the OEL (occupational exposure limit) downstream of the filter. - Automatic detector for activated carbon filter saturation. - Airflow control: Continuous monitoring device to maintain an airflow rate between 0.4 m/s and 0.6 m/s. - Built-in alarm: Triggers an alarm in the event of activated carbon filter saturation, ensuring safe operation at all times.
