Labconco Echo 8' Floor-Mounted Filtered Fume Hoods provide the interior height needed for bulky apparatus with no ducting required. These hoods feature fully-closing, vertical-rising sashes. eGuard® communication software offers real-time monitoring on the user’s phone or computer. From a remote location, data such as usage authorization, filter saturation detection, sash position, and temperature man be observed and managed.

The Echo uses Neutrodine® Unisorb Filters, the most comprehensive, safety-driven carbon filter available. This single molecular filter type can easily absorb most chemicals and mixtures, taking the guesswork out of filter selection. Erlab-proven Neutrodine Filters are the heart of GFH Filtration Technology.

Floor-Mounted models include a fiberglass panelized linjer and three exterior depths: 37.7”, 43.7”, and 55.7”. Models are available for carbon-only, carbon with acid sensor, carbon for formaldehyde sensor, or HEPA-only filtration. Filters are sold separately.

Floor-mounted hoods are shipped partially unassembled and require some field assembly (not provided). They are shipped on 2-3 pallets, requiring placement of lower and upper portions, installation of corner posts, baffles, header, and sashes, and connection of piping and electrical (if included).

Required accessories (not included): Neutrodine® Unisorb Filters (except HEPA only models which require HEPA filters). Number of filters required is determined by the width of the hood.
