PREFACE Thank you for displaying confidence in us by selecting a Labconco Canopy Hood. Our design engineers, assemblers and inspectors have utilized their skills and years of experience to ensure that the new Labconco Canopy Hood meets our high standards of quality and performance. IMPORTANT NOTICE This manual should be read carefully by all the end users in order to become familiar with the operation of the Canopy Hood.
INTRODUCTION Components Shipped Carefully check the contents of the carton for damage that might have occurred in transit. Do not discard the carton or packing material until all components have been checked against the following component list and the equipment has been installed and tested.
INTRODUCTION General Description The Labconco Canopy Hood is designed for special purpose functions in which heat, steam or odors are generated. Large or bulky apparatus such as tissue processor, steam baths or open Kjeldahls can be used in conjunction with the Canopy Hood. The epoxy-coated superstructure has an integral baffle to increase slot velocities and enhance the overall capture efficiency of the hood.
INSTALLATION The most effective installation is one in which the back is mounted against a wall while the front is supported by 3/8 inch threaded rod mounted to the ceiling. Wire or cable may be substituted for the 3/8 inch threaded rod. Please see Figure 1 for recommended installation technique. Figure 1 Hood Efficiency The Canopy Hood can be extremely effective when installed correctly. The effectiveness of the Canopy Hood is dependent directly upon the proximity of the work area to the hood face.
