INSTALLATION
MODULAR FUME HOOD
™
NOTE: The best way to assemble a Modular Fume Hood XL is to
place a stack of pallets under each corner of the hood and
one or two additional stacks under the loose ends of the
cross-profiles.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended to lift a Modular Fume Hood XL
using two fork-lift trucks. Make sure to lift the hood by the
profiles, not by the roof panels.
In case a standing hood XL is to be positioned in a corner:
• Position the hood roughly using two fork-lift trucks.
• Put some pallets on the forks of one fork-lift truck.
If necessary, use additional beams.
• Lift the hood in the middle and place it on the final position.
MOUNTING POSSIbILITIES
- Standard: hanging by chains (chain links min. 0.3 in./8 mm; to
be sourced locally)
- Option: standing on legs + floor mounting set
- A combination of both (e.g. 2 2 legs)
For a hanging mounted configuration, check that the roof is
strong enough. Weights of Modular Fume Hoods are listed in the
S31225-77 tables published on the following pages.
Refer Assembly Reference Section of the manual for detailed
information.
Use proper material to mount the chains. If
necessary: consult the architect of the building.
