Same report as above, no appendices.
The Air Sentry Fume Hood's performance has been
tested to every nationally and internationally recognized testing
standard in the world, including the ASHRAE 110-1995 Standard, the
BS 7258: Part 4: 1994 Standard, The Invent UK Test Method, and the
DIN 12 924 Standard.
Lab Crafters has further challenged the
performance of its hoods with tests that go above and beyond the
scope of these standards. These additional challenges include
greater tracer gas release rates, varying and multiple tracer gas
sensor locations, and the addition of cross drafts and other
dynamic challenges during the tests.
The test reports above are three of the many
performance tests conducted on the Air Sentry Fume Hood by
independent organizations. To download the reports in *.pdf
format, simply click on the bold type file name. Additional test
reports will be posted as they become available in digital format.
The first two reports (ECT-HBASC6.PDF and
ECT-HWASC6.PDF) were performed by Mr. Thomas C. Smith of Exposure
Control Technologies, of Cary, North Carolina. Mr. Smith is
recognized as one of the top experts in the field of fume hood
testing and commissioning and is among the most experienced
individuals in the world in the ASHRAE 110 test method. These
reports contain the results of ASHRAE 110-1995 tests performed on
a six-foot wide bench top Air Sentry Fume Hood and a six-foot wide
walk-in Air Sentry fume hood, respectively. These tests were
conducted at Lab Crafters test facility in Ronkonkoma, NY.
The third report (UWM-HBASC5.PDF) was prepared
by the State of Wisconsin, Department of Administration, Division
of Facilities Development. This report contains the results of
modified ASHRAE 110-1995 tests, performed by Mr. Smith of ECT and
Mr. Jack Wunder of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, on a
five-foot wide bench top Air Sentry Fume Hood. For this report,
the Air Sentry Fume Hood was tested side by side with a Fisher
Hamilton, Inc. HOPEC Fume Hood at the University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee. The report compares the performance of the
two hoods.
Any questions regarding these test reports may
be forwarded to Lab Crafters or to the organizations that prepared
the reports.
