for

Carbon Filtered Enclosures


CAUTION
THIS GUIDE SHOULD ONLY BE USED AS SUPPORTING REFERENCE IN THE
DETERMINATION OF A CHEMICALS SAFE USE WITH LABCONCOS CARBON
FILTERED ENCLOSURE. VARIABLES IN CONCENTRATION, TEMPERATURES, PHASES
AND REACTIONS WITH OTHER CHEMICALS CONTRIBUTE TO UNCERTAINTY. A
THOROUGH ANALYSIS BY THE ON-SITE TRAINED CHEMICAL SAFETY OFFICER
MUST BE DONE FOR EACH APPLICATION.

The data included in the Chemical Guide has been compiled from current public
sources. The chemicals listed are those included in the U.S. National Institute for Oc-
cupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards, 2005. The
general recommendations for Compatibility of each chemical are an opinion, based
on the analysis of available data for chemical properties, exposure limits, odor and filter
effectiveness.

New information with the respect to chemical hazards is adopted on a continual basis.
Information contained in this Chemical Guide may become dated and therefore rein-
forces the need to research appropriateness for use at the start and at regular intervals.
For an on-line version of this guide, that is regularly updated, visit
www.laboconco.com/chemical-guide. Exposure Limits documented in the Chemical
Guide are for reference only, therefore consult the latest regulatory limits that apply to
your location and industry.

Where the Paramount Ductless Enclosure or any of Labconcos other carbon-filtered


enclosures are used with hazardous chemicals, a formal Chemical Hygiene program
must be established. The program should include education, training and maintenance
to ensure the proper application, use and performance of the product. Appropriate per-
sonal protection clothing, gloves and eye wear along with proper handling of chemicals
in fume hoods are the responsibility of the user and their employer.

DUCTLESS ENCLOSURES WILL NOT PROTECT AGAINST ALL CHEMICALS IN THE


WORK ENVIRONMENT. SPECIFIC LIMITATIONS STATED IN THE USERS MANUAL
MUST BE FULLY REVIEWED AND UNDERSTOOD BEFORE USE. FAILURE TO HEED
THE WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SICKNESS OR DEATH.

Activated Carbon (OV) Filter Adsorption Capacities


A common misunderstanding regarding the capacity of
activated carbon is that it adsorbs a predictable fixed
weight of chemicals. Chemical adsorption is a result of
the chemical concentration in the airstream attempting
to reach equilibrium with the carbon media. The ultimate
