The Esco Airstream® Ductless Fume Cabinet is the second generation of our original and most popular ductless
fume cabinet product, offering a sensible balance of quality, performance features and cost-effectiveness. Developed at Esco’s Invent-UK accredited research and development laboratory, these cabinets feature many key innovations that make our products the optimum solutions to your equipment needs.
Certified containment which means that chemical vapours are contained within the enclosure and will not leak through the frontal opening.
Certified filtration efficiency to ensure that the filter is effective against the compounds used in the enclosure at the specified concentration levels. Superior filtration through generously-sized Nanocarb™ main filters with higher chemical retention capacities and over-sized high air volume blower systems. Unique motorised impellers ensure better airflow uniformity, while external rotor motors ensure
low energy consumption.
High-quality, extremely durable, all-metal carcass which creates an air-tight outer shell for the best possible toxic fume containment possible (as opposed to a non airtight plastic frame). This innovative design is also supplemented by the frameless glass sliding sash front window which is more air-tight than conventional plastic systems.
Attention is paid to ergonomics: Sloped front design of the cabinet ensures better visibility into the work zone and comfort for the operator. Glass side walls and front sash of our cabinet provide better visibility into the work zone and are ideal for classroom demonstration sessions.
Ductless fume cabinets provide protection to the laboratory personnel and the environment from toxic fumes and are quickly becoming a viable alternative to conventional fume hoods. Unlike conventional fume hoods, these cabinets filter out chemical fumes and recycle air directly back to the laboratory.
Personnel protection is provided in a manner similar to conventional fume hoods by drawing air at a controlled rate across a front opening into the hood. Ductless fume cabinets have many advantages over conventional fume hoods: Energy savings since air which is costly to air-condition or heat is not removed from the laboratory. For example, in the USA the typical fume hood costs around USD 5,000 to operate in annual energy costs alone. Considering that there is an estimated number of 600,000 fume hoods in operation
across America, every year approximately USD 3 billion is spent to operate them!
They protect the environment since toxic fumes are not released to the environment unlike in conventional fume hoods
Fully installed systems ready to operate are available at a lower cost than bulky conventional fume hoods
An expensive ducting and external blower system that is often difficult to maintain is not required
Mobile and can be relocated easily; perfect for schools and education institutes.
