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
switch controls unit power.
B. Steel Support Frame: The chemical resistant
epoxy coated steel frame adds mechanical strength.
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
Formula Description
GP Plus! The most widely used filter in the range, primarily for solvent, organic, and alcohol removal.
ACI Plus! Neutralizes volatile inorganic acid vapors.
ACR Iodine and methy l iodide vapors. I t is frequ ently used for iodinatio n reactions
with low level radioactive iodine.
ACM Mercur y vapor.
AMM Removes vapors from dilute ammonia solutions and to remove low molecular weight amines.
SUL Designed to remove hydrogen sulphide and low molecular weight mercaptans.
CYN Removal 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.
FOR Designe d to oxidize formald ehyde and glutaral dehyde fumes.
It is widely used in hospital pathology laboratories.
ETH Diethyl 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.
EDU Designed to handle chemicals normally used in a university level chemistry curriculum.
MIL As the name implies, this filter is designed for military applications involving war gasses.
HEPA/UPLA Powders and particulates.
This Product Exceeds OSHA, ANSI and Other International Standards.
