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 want a better HVAC system? The S100 is an air velocity switch with an adjustable set point that monitors airflow and operates an output relay and indicator LED. The flow monitor provides an economical way to detect a change or loss of air velocity caused by obstructed or leaky ductwork, a damper that’s […]
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 […]
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 […]
Interested in upgrading your laboratory? Upgrading laboratory equipment and ventilation systems leads to increased efficiency, enhanced safety, and regulatory compliance. Not only do Rooster fume hood monitors ensure that fume hoods have adequate containment for airflow safety and compliance, but lead times are short. One of our HVAC partners just completed an upgrade project for […]
Are your fume hoods equipped with airflow monitors? The Rooster Airflow Alarm is a real-time continuous fume hood performance monitor. It protects users by constantly measuring air velocity and indicating whether fume hood airflow is within safe design limits. Installing a fume hood flow alarm also allows you to meet industry standards and guidelines which […]
