Ductless filtering fumehoods
Model Captair Flex XL


Based on a new modular design, the Captair® Flex™ range ensures optimal operator protection by being able to adapt itself to the handling of liquid and solid toxic chemicals, separated or combined, in laboratories and clean rooms.
Captair® Flex™ offers unprecedented flexibility by fulfilling the environmental and economic needs of our modern world.

An ergonomic design
Enclosure dimensions
A wide choice of enclosures with widths starting from 311/2’’ to 707/8’’, offering a compact size and reduced depth and other models with a larger width and depth for specific applications. They allow to perform the most common manipulations even when taking into account large instrumentations and are easy to integrate in your laboratories.
Visibility
The acrylic panels offer excellent visibility of the chemical handlings performed within the enclosure. The different types of lighting offer a great functional flexibility to the users.
Front panel openings
The arm openings, oblong, trapezoid or total, are designed to allow the operator an easy access within the entire perimeter of the enclosure. The central shield, in the oblong openings version, protects the user against chemical spills.
Set up
The advanced design of the Captair® Flex™ fume hoods makes the set up and service operations easy. Ready to be installed, all components are easy to assemble and need very few tools.
Working position
The design of the new Captair® Flex™ fume hoods allows the user to work in sitting or standing position without getting tired. The work surfaces have a rolled edge to provide an area to rest forearms comfortably and the angled front sash offers the operator a comfortable viewing position.
Noise level
The low dbA (noise) level produced by the Captair® Flex™ filtered enclosures allows the user to keep his full attention on the scientific work to be performed without any hearing discomfort to himself or the laboratory staff.

Modular filtration column
The combination of molecular and particulate filtration technologies allows for the configuration of a single unit in order to meet the protection needs of laboratories. This has been rendered possible with the design of a onesize filtration cartridge which can be stacked vertically to form a multi-layer filtration column offering various combinations of filtering solutions which represents the major technological breakthrough of the new Captair® Flex™ range. This modular filtration column is therefore able to easily adapt itself to the needs of laboratories in terms of personnel protection and space requirement. The different models of the new Captair® Flex™ filtration fume hoods can be equipped with 1 to 4 filtration columns offering very high retention capacities.


Guaranteed airtightness of the filtration column
The advanced proprietary design of the Captair® Flex™ filtering cartridge guarantees users a total airtightness of the filtration column. The vertical stacking of the modular filtration column uses a gel sealing technology applied on the whole perimeter of the filtering cartridges, which ensures, by gravity, the perfect airtightness of the filtration column.

Model XL
The Flex XL series fume hoods are designed for applications and laboratories that require a larger hood area and filtration capacity. Up to 4 filtration columns can be configured according to the protection needs of the hood’s specific application. The enclosure structure is composed of an anti-corrosion metallic alloy that is protected with a thermo-hardened, anti-acid, polymer coating. The optical viewing panels are composed of 5/16 inch thick acrylic and the filtration modules are formed from rigid polypropylene. All Flex hoods are CE tested and marked.
