INTRODUCTION
Air Science Fume Box ductless
enclosures are designed to protect
the user from chemicals, vapors or
powders during low-volume chemical
manipulations by effectively containing
low concentrations of noxious fumes,
vapors or powders.
AIR SCIENCE
MULTIPLEX FILTRATION
TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM
The Fume Box utilizes
the exclusive Air Science
Multiplex filtration system,
a unique configuration
that includes a pre -filter
and main filter to create
a chemical, physical or
combination architecture
to adsorb, neutralize or
trap the target chemical or particulate while
constant negative
pressure removes vapors
and particulates from
the user’s breathing
zone. Clean, filtered air is
returned to the laboratory, eliminating the need
for external ducting and
minimizing loss of treated,
conditioned air from the
facility.
• An electrostatic
polyester fiber pre -filter
with 95% particulate
arrestance intercepts
larger particulates
to help extend carbon
and HEPA/ULPA
filter life.
• The activated carbon
filter adsorbs organic
odors and hazardous
vapors such as xylene
and toluene.
• A HEPA filter can be
added for particulate
control.
MULTIPLEX
SYSTEM FILTERS
• Pre-Filter. The electro-
static pre -filter protects
the main filters from
aerosols, dust and
particulates with
filtration efficiency
superior to 95.5%
down to 0.5 microns.
• Main Filter. Activated
carbon FILTCO™
sourced. A single
carbon filter containing
chemically-formulated
activated carbon
granules is selected
when ordering to
accommodate a
specific vapor or family
of vapors.
• HEPA Filter. A selfcontained Camfil Farr
HEPA filter is designed
to physically capture
particles larger than
0.3 microns.
Air Science carbon
filters are based on
enhanced, activated
carbon particle formulations from specially
selected, naturally
occurring raw material
superior to wood or other
organic sources. The
carbon is treated to attain
the proper porosity and
aggregate surface area
and to react with several
ranges of aerosolized
chemicals moved
through the filter by an
air handling blower.
Made in
the U.S.A.
This Product Exceeds OSHA, ANSI and Other International Standards.

PRODUCT FEATURES:
A. Main On/Off Switch: High qualit y rocker On/Off
C. Electrostatic Pre-Filter: The 99.5% effective electro-
static pre-filter is accessible from inside the chamber to
contain the release of any par ticulates that it traps.
D. Color: The cabinet is white with blue trim;
side and back panels are clear.
E. Enclosed Filtration Chamber: Main filters can
be carbon and/or HEPA/ULPA to fit a variety of containment needs.

Fume Box, AP60H shown with Multip lex filtration system.
Room air enters from the front of the cabinet through the pre-filter where larger particles
are trapped, increasing the service life of the main filter.
The Fume Box maintains a constant face velocity of 100 fpm in compliance with U.S.A.
and international standards for safety and performance. Contaminated air is pulled
through the Multiplex filtration system where activated carbon adsorbs chemical vapors
and/or particulates if HEPA/ULPA filters are used. Clean air is returned to the room.
A. The main filter is e asy to replac e. The filter clamps tightly against the filter gasket
to prevent filter bypass and to maintain filter integrity.
Intake
The Fume Box incorporates an energy-efficient
ebmpapst™ permanently
lubricated direct drive
centrifugal blower for
maximum operational
savings, low noise and
minimal vibration.
FILTER SUMMARY
FormulaDescription
GP Plus!The most widely used filter in the range, primarily for solvent, organic, and alcohol removal.
ACRIodine and methy l iodide vapors. I t is frequ ently used for iodinatio n reactions
with low level radioactive iodine.
ACMMercur y vapor.
AMMRemoves vapors from dilute ammonia solutions and to remove low molecular weight amines.
SULDesigned to remove hydrogen sulphide and low molecular weight mercaptans.
CYNRemoval of hydrogen cyanide. Many cyanide c ompounds will evolve HCN gas if acidified,
so this filter is normally specified if working with any cyanide compound.
FORDesigne d to oxidize formald ehyde and glutaral dehyde fumes.
It is widely used in hospital pathology laboratories.
ETHDiethyl ether is adsorbed on activate d carbo n, but because of its low boiling poi nt, local
heat adsorption can reduce the capacity of the filter. Special impregnation allows a chemical
reaction which increases the filter capacity.
EDUDesigned to handle chemicals normally used in a university level chemistry curriculum.
MILAs the name implies, this filter is designed for military applications involving war gasses.
HEPA/UPLAPowders and particulates.
This Product Exceeds OSHA, ANSI and Other International Standards.
