RADIOISOTOPE EXHAUST BLOWERS & FILTERS

Radioisotope Exhaust Blowers
HEMCO offers specialty exhaust blowers to
safely and efficiently vent radioisotope fume
hoods. Blowers are sized based on the hood
size and length of ducting.

Fume Hood Face Velocity cfm
Sash in full open position should be for setup of
apparatus & maintenance service only. If design
opening is at 1/2 open at 100 fpm (feet per minute),
face velocity at full open would be approximately
50 fpm.
The recommended face velocity for
efciency & safety should be 80-100 fpm.
Lower face velocity may compromise user safety.

Radioisotope Filters

Bag-In/Bag-Out filtration systems to meet
specific exhaust requirements. carbon filters are
used to absorb fumes and HEPA filters are used
to collect particulate.
