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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
Do you want to enhance the safety of your grossing station? Formaldehyde exposure is a safety concern in histology and pathology laboratories. Rooster™ Airflow Alarms and Monitors from Degree Controls are designed for use with grossing stations and fume hoods. The Monitor100 grossing station airflow monitor continuously tracks airflow levels to help ensure that ventilated […]
