Room Pressure Control | Safe Laboratory Environments
Exceptionally safe, efficient environments for laboratory professionals.
The challenges most commonly faced in ventilation for laboratory environments involve the safety of the personnel, energy efficiency, flexibility for changing the design on the fly, thermal comfort, suitable operation conditions, and reliability of the complete delivery.

Importance of fast response time (the time in which stable control velocity is reached after the hood opening has a significant effect on the exposure)
Once the response time exceeds 3 seconds (equals 1s on the X-axis) the exposure risk increases significantly
After 5 seconds from the sash movement, the maximum concentrations at the hood opening may reach the exhaust concentration
