Professional Design

Designed for laboratory fume hood exhaust with operator safety and emergency scenarios in mind.

Corrosion-resistant features

All parts in contact with corrosive exhaust air are made of PP for excellent corrosion resistance.

Fast response

Steady-state response time complies with ASHRAE 110 and DIN EN 14175-6, preventing hazardous gas escape.

Face Velocity Control

Typical fume hood face velocity is controlled at 0.3-0.5 m/s ±15%, balancing effective exhaust and energy savings.

Fail-safe

Multiple emergency scenarios are considered; once emergency mode is triggered, the system switches to maximum exhaust immediately.

Energy Management

Optional occupancy sensor or automatic sash system enables low-exhaust operation when the fume hood is unattended.

Before Installation

  • Confirm that valve selection matches fume hood specifications
  • Install according to valve airflow direction and reserve maintenance space
  • Confirm installation positions for sash position sensor and control panel
  • Confirm power supply and component wiring

Installation Steps

  • Install the VAV damper in the exhaust duct
  • Connect exhaust ducts and ensure sealing
  • Install sash position sensor and control panel according to the manual
  • Connect internal component wiring
  • Connect power and signal cables
  • Power-on test

Commissioning Points
