Product Description

The DownDraft Fume Extractor is the ideal workstation for safe, healthy histology, cytology, and pathology tasks. Why use a bulky conventional fume hood when the DownDraft Fume Extractor offers a compact, portable, ductless and installation free alternative? The DDFE also offers a small investment in comparison with conventional pathology workstations and uses low cost pelletized activated carbon, NOT expensive custom filters. Downdraft just makes sense for common, heavier-than-air fumes from like Xylene.

Features:

Perforations in stainless steel work tray balance air flow - even when many are blocked by bottles, slides, etc.

Hardly noticeable airflow required for most applications; plenty of extraction power though, by variable speed centrifugal fan.

Activated carbon contained in cassette drawer; quick interchange and reloading. Effective against most fumes common to clinical and life sciences laboratories.

Digital timer shows elapsed time, with warning light.
