A Fume Hood is a type of ventilation device used in laboratories to contain and safely vent hazardous fumes, vapors, or dust generated during experiments or procedures. They are connected to an exhaust system that draws air and contaminants away from the hood and safely expels them outside the building or through a filtration system. It provides a protective barrier between the operator and potentially harmful substances, ensuring a safe working environment by preventing exposure to toxic or irritating chemicals. Fume Hood are used for handling and manipulating chemicals, acids, bases, and other hazardous substances that produce fumes or vapors.
