Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Ductless Fume Hood, and how is it different from a ducted fume hood?
A Ductless Fume Hood is a self contained safety enclosure that filters chemical fumes using internal carbon and molecular filters, then recirculates clean air back into the lab. A ducted hood, by contrast, exhausts contaminated air outside the building through ductwork. Ductless units need no external venting, making them faster to install and more energy efficient.
Is ACMAS a genuine Ductless Fume Hood manufacturer, or just a trading company?
ACMAS designs and manufactures its Ductless Fume Hoods in house, we are not a reseller. Our units are built to ASHRAE 110, EN 14175-3, AFNOR NF X 15-203, BS 7989 and BS 7258 standards under CE and ISO certified manufacturing practices.
Can the Ductless Fume Hood be customized to specific technical requirements?
Yes. We can customize these equipments as per the technical specifications you provide, including working chamber size, socket type, filter grade, coating, and airflow configuration, to match your exact application.
What sizes of Ductless Fume Hoods does ACMAS offer?
Our standard range includes 4x2x2 feet, 5x2.5x2.5 feet, and 6x3x3 feet models, with fully custom sizes also available on request.
Does ACMAS supply and export Ductless Fume Hoods outside India?
Yes, as an established Ductless Fume Hood manufacturer, supplier and exporter, we ship to research institutions and industrial buyers across India and internationally.
How often does the filter need to be checked in a Ductless Fume Hood?
Our units include a programmable timer that alerts the user every 60 hours of operation to perform a saturation detection test on the molecular filter, ensuring filtration performance never quietly drops.
Which industries commonly use Ductless Fume Hoods?
Chemical research labs, pharmaceutical quality control departments, university teaching laboratories, semiconductor cleanrooms, and general analytical facilities all rely on Ductless Fume Hoods wherever hazardous or noxious materials are handled.
