Cole-Parmer FHD-200 Standard Ductless Fume Hood, 24"W; 115 VAC, 60 Hz
Manufacturer: Cole-Parmer
Description
The FHD-200 is a benchtop ductless fume hood with a 24-inch wide interior work area. It operates by drawing room air and any generated fumes inward through the front sash opening, passing this air through one or more internal filtration stages, and then recirculating the cleaned air back into the laboratory. This self-contained design eliminates the need for external ducting and exhaust systems, allowing for flexible placement within a lab. It is powered by standard 115 VAC, 60 Hz electricity. The vertical sash provides user access while helping to maintain containment. A critical operational requirement is the selection of appropriate filter media, such as activated carbon or HEPA filters, which must be matched to the specific chemical vapors or particulates being handled. This unit is intended for use with low-to-moderate hazard materials in settings like education, quality control, or as supplementary containment where installation of a traditional ducted hood is not feasible.
