Gas Detection Monitoring in Fume Hoods

Posted by Rhys Redrup
What is a Fume Hood? A fume hood is a local exhaust ventilation system designed to control and remove hazardous airborne substances at source. It works by drawing air away from the user and the working area, capturing fumes, vapours, gases, dusts, and aerosols before they can disperse into the surrounding environment. Typically used when...
