Used BETCHER RA36FRPP #138770 for sale

A BETCHER RA36FRPP laminar flow and fume hood is a self-contained engineering control that is designed to contain toxic air pollutants and protect the user from potential inhalation exposure risks. This hood employs the use of fan-driven laminar air flow which creates a vertically downward air passage with a constant, uniform air velocity within the hood. This hood is equipped with a single supply air fan, capable of providing an average linear face velocity of between 60-80 feet per minute. This fan is responsible for creating the laminar flow within the hood, as well as directing the flow of airborne contaminants away from the user. The system also features an electronic fan control that is used to ensure that the hood's face velocity remains within the recommended range. In order to maintain the necessary air flow, RA36FRPP laminar flow and fume hood is equipped with a poly-carbonate sash window. This sash window can be adjusted to obtain the necessary air flow, while at the same time providing a barrier between the user and the hazardous environment. The hood is also equipped with a one-inch HVAC drain line as well as a full length, stainless steel work surface. Both the work surface and the sash window are designed in a way that minimizes microbial contamination within the hood. In order to ensure personnel safety, BETCHER RA36FRPP laminar flow and fume hood is equipped with an audible and visual low-velocity alarm. This alarm is triggered when the linear face velocity drops below 60 feet per minute, signaling the user to take steps to increase the flow of air. Additionally, the hood is equipped with an electrical power switch to control power to the unit. Lastly, the hood is fitted with UV lights, allowing the user to quickly disinfect the interior environment should a spill occur. Overall, RA36FRPP laminar flow and fume hood is an effective engineering control that is designed to provide personnel safety while also protecting the environment from hazardous airborne pollutants. With its adjustable sash window, fan control, alarm system, and UV lights, this hood is able to create a safe, contaminant free environment for personnel to work in.
