The Protector Airo Filtered Fume Hood has a compact design that avoids potential challenges of existing lab conditions while still providing space, utility and options of a traditional hood

Cat. No. 184410000
11.5” working sash height
Filters not included
90-day warranty
Because the Protector Airo requires no connection to ductwork, initial building infrastructure change costs are minimized and allows the hood to be placed in hard-to-duct areas. Should lab configurations change, the Protector Airo may be relocated without disrupting existing heating and air conditioning systems. Furthermore, its lower height allows it to fit in spaces with ceiling heights as low as 8 feet - a full 12" less than traditional hoods.

Constructed of a glacier white powder-coated steel exterior and a chemical-resistant, fiberglass-reinforced, composite panel liner. The vertical-rising sash is a single piece of tempered safety glass with cable pulley and tracks with Clean-Sweep airflow openings. Sash stop is at 11.5" sash opening height. Sash opens to 24.4" high for loading.
It features all of the characteristics of Labconco Protector Hoods including the patented Eco-Foil Air Foil with Clean-Sweep openings to pull inflow air into the hood in non-turbulent air streams, fiberglass-reinforced panel liner, by-pass airflow design, and the ability to add electrical receptacles and service fixtures.
The patented Clean-Sweep Sash Handle and Sash Tracks bleed air away from the user’s breathing zone. These features are paired with a design often relegated to small ductless enclosures - a lower height, compact footprint that requires no ductwork!
Most of our equipment is used and reconditioned. Our technicians test all equipment to confirm that it operates properly and to the manufacturer’s specifications.
While we can’t test for a specific analytical application, we will do our best to simulate the conditions under which the equipment will be run. If you have particular testing requirements or requests please let us know and we’ll work with you to make sure these requirements are addressed during testing.
The photos above are representative. Please bear in mind that the equipment shown is currently in storage in our warehouse. In addition to testing each machine we will clean all the equipment thoroughly prior to shipment.
We often have multiple units of each model in stock. Sometimes we're unable to feature photos of every unit. At your request, we can provide photos of the equipment in your order after testing and cleaning.
