Fume Hood Containment Video

The topic of containment testing of fume hoods is generating much interest in the industry. The ASHRAE standard is due for review, but in the meantime, companies are gathering relevant information and fostering discussions. This video deals with the safety of researchers who may be exposed to fumes when working at fume hoods operating at low velocities. It demonstrates the affect that a variety of factors, including different height operators, typical movements, varied flow rates (100fpm, 60fpm) and sash positions, has on containment.
