Vanguard
Perchloric Acid Fume Hood
The Perchloric Acid Fume Hood has the same general performance characteristics as the Balanced Air Fume Hood
with the additional feature of a coved seamless welded interior cavity using type 316 #4 finish stainless steel as
recommended by Insurance Underwriters. The interior cavity also has an integral full width drain trough to facilitate the
recommended frequent and thorough wash-downs. It is also recommended that the ductwork be made of a relatively
inert material such as stainless steel. Exhaust ductwork should be as short and as straight as possible. Perchloric
hoods must never be manifold into duct systems that serve any other type of fume hood or any other equipment.
