8' Protector XL Benchtop Laboratory Fume Hood

Protector XL I-S Benchtop Laboratory Hoods

Protector XL I-S Benchtop Laboratory Hoods are general chemistry hoods that offer superior design flexibility. They are available in widths from 3 to 8 feet and two depths to meet a variety of installation and application requirements.

Designed for use with Intelli-Sense Multi-Speed Blowers, Protector XL I-S Benchtop Hoods feature integrated sash position blower controls. As the sash is raised or lowered, sensors alert the blower to change speeds to maintain a safe face velocity. That face velocity is displayed on the factory-installed Guardian™ Digital Airflow Monitor for users’ peace of mind.

These hoods are suitable for providing personal protection needed for general chemistry applications involving fumes and vapors. They meet the SEFA-1 standard of a low velocity, high performance hood and may be safely operated as low as 60 fpm.

Fume Hood Safety & Best Practices

Proper use of your fume hood is vital to maintaining a safe laboratory environment. In this video, we highlight the essential do's and don'ts of fume hood safety, ensuring you stay protected while working with hazardous materials.

Labconco Fume Hood Airflow Demonstration

Labconco Protector Fume Hoods include the XStream, the most energy-efficient ducted fume hood design, as well as other high performance ducted fume hoods in our Premier and XL lines. This video demonstrates the airflow and safety features of all our Protector Fume Hood models.

Chemical Fume Hood Installation

This video shows how to install a Labconco Protector Fume Hood. This video features a Protector XStream Fume Hood, and most installations are similar.

How the I-S Fume Hood Saves Energy

This animation shows how the Protector I-S works with a laboratory air supply’s pressure differential switch to save energy. When the sash is lowered, blower speed is automatically reduced to conserve the room's tempered air.
