Esco Frontier® Floor Mounted™ Fume Hood

Product Description

Esco Frontier® Floor Mounted™ Fume Hood is designed to provide comfortable space when users have to deal with large apparatus and hazardous containers. This fume hood is built with horizontal or vertical sliding sashes for ease of access when transporting apparatus into the hood. Although this type of fume hood is sometimes denoted as a walk-in fume hood, it is a misnomer. The user must not enter the hood while an activity generating hazardous fumes exists or when suspected concentration of fumes exists inside the chamber.
