Walk-In Fume Hood

A walk-in fume hood, also known as a floor-mounted fume hood, is a large, enclosed ventilation system designed to protect laboratory personnel from hazardous fumes, vapors, and particulates generated by oversized equipment or large-scale experiments. Unlike benchtop fume hoods, walk-in models extend from the floor to the ceiling, allowing users to roll in large apparatus or workstations. Despite the name, personnel should not enter the hood during operations with hazardous materials to avoid exposure

Customized Walk-in Clean Room Hood
Customized Walk-in Clean Rooms offer an easy-to-setup solution to create an oversized positive-pressure enclosure. These systems meet up to ISO Class 7* Clean Room standards and offer the same customization features as custom Walk-in Fume Hoods. (*efficiency may vary by size).

While Accumax India Walk-in Enclosures have several customizable features, the traditional design includes four structural supports, clear panel curtain walls, and a ceiling panel with mounted ductless air filtration units. The curtained wall doubles as the entrance and exit to the enclosure as well as acting as a barrier surrounding the enclosure. The structural supports maintain the integrity of the enclosure while supporting the weight of the ceiling panel and filtration units. The filtration units utilize powerful fans to create negative pressure that then pulls fume, dust, and vapour from within the enclosure into the units’ filter chamber before releasing cleansed air back into the ambient room.
