Airflow is Essential for Critical Containment Engineering controls are used to protect laboratory workers. Examples include exposure control devices (ECDs) such as chemical fume hoods and biosafety cabinets (BSCs), which are ventilated to contain harmful toxins and odors, and safeguard against fume releases into the room. These critical containment cabinets differ in design, and airflow […]
Do you need to retrofit the airflow monitor in your Class II biosafety cabinet? Biosafety cabinets need the ability to monitor airflow and present airflow status to the user. By NSF/ANSI Standard 49 requirements, a biosafety cabinet must have audible and visual alarms that indicate a loss of exhaust airflow. The Rooster Airflow Alarm with […]
It’s time to upgrade your fume hood. For years, professional organizations have recommended the use of airflow monitors for laboratory safety. The Rooster Monitor100 is the top fume hood monitor and indicates whether or not overall system airflow is low. If you have new hoods that did not come with airflow monitors preinstalled, need a […]
Are you manufacturing seals or sealing solutions? When manufacturing rubber products such as seals, O-rings, and gaskets, ventilation is used to remove fumes and debris from the air. To work safely, fume extraction systems need regular maintenance and a full-time airflow monitoring system. Continuous Monitoring One rubber product supplier has implemented the Rooster Monitor200 airflow […]
Do you want to improve laboratory safety? If your fume hood does not have a means to verify airflow, or uses a legacy magnehelic gauge, the addition of the Rooster Airflow Alarm is recommended. A properly functioning fume hood is often the most important engineering control in a laboratory; the Rooster Alarm continuously tracks fume […]
Do you need an airflow monitor for your laboratory construction or renovation project? The primary function of a fume hood alarm is to warn laboratory personnel of potentially unsafe levels of airflow. The Rooster series of airflow monitors allows you to easily achieve that level of airflow safety. We have solutions for new fume hood […]
Not everyone uses Degree Controls sensors in the same way, and OEM applications often have unique requirements. To meet the needs of our customers, we provide configuration options for our airflow switches and sensors. You can select features like air velocity profile or trip point, supply voltage, analog output, digital communication, and mechanical length. In […]
We promised you more, and we’ve delivered. For 2024, the Rooster airflow monitor has new features for improved airflow safety and better fume hood performance. The Rooster Monitor100’s closed-loop control system allows users to maintain a face velocity setpoint. The analog output control signal indicates velocity, and EH&S managers can now choose from a linear […]
Do you need to optimize cooling for your telecom enclosure? Thermal analysis for electronic products is critical throughout the design process, however it can be time consuming to get a comprehensive understanding of thermal behavior. Choosing the right sensors and data acquisition system makes a positive impact on the amount of time and effort required […]
Do you need to upgrade ventilation for your primary clarifiers? WWTPs (Wastewater Treatment Plants) keep water safe and protect our environment. For control of the toxic and corrosive gases released during wastewater treatment, as well as reliable equipment operation, effective ventilation is needed. Engineers specify the S-Series (S300/S400/S500) probe-style flow switch to monitor ventilation airflow, […]
