Down Flow Benches

Down Flow Benches are utilized in the weighing and sampling of small amounts of potent compounds. 

The design intent is similar to that of the Down Flow Booth, to provide a sustained airflow straight down to the work surface.  This action takes any powder down and away for the technician performing the weighing activity.  The air flow can be recirculated back in to the lab /process room, or it can be once through air exhausted outside. 

The air flow is adjustable, to allow the proper facial velocity to be set. 

The bench sizes match those of standard fume hoods, but can be provided in any custom sizes or orientations required.  This downflow bench can be provided with a snap in glove port panel to turn this into a completely isolated system. 

Features
  • Designed for lab scale and bench top applications for the control of dust
  • Maintained facial velocity across the front to ensure powders do not escape
  • Can have an integrated granite or other scale surface to provide stability and isolate equipment vibration
  • Down Flow Benches are available in recirculatory or once-through airflow systems
  • Epoxy Coated Mild Steel or SS 304 / 316 / 316L construction available
  • HEPA or ULPA filtration
  • Hazard Class Electricals available
  • Variety of controls and instrumentation options to meet your needs
