Before you install your Storage Cabinet, you need to
prepare your site for installation. Carefully examine the
location where you intend to install the Storage
Cabinet. You must be certain that the area is level and
of solid construction. In addition, your Storage Cabinet
should be adjacent to a vent connection to allow for
venting to the exterior of the building, if so desired.
Otherwise, it is typical to vent the Storage Cabinet
through the work surface and fume hood, which is
supported by the Storage Cabinet.

Vent Installation – Acid and Standard
Base Cabinet
Chapter 3: Getting Started
To ventilate the Acid Storage Cabinet and the Standard
Base Storage Cabinet properly, first decide which of the
two vent connections in the back of the cabinet that you
intend to use. The lower vent connection should be
used for heavier than air vapors and the upper vent
connection should be used for lighter than air vapors to
obtain the best results within the cabinet structure.
Vent Kit, P/N 35911, allows the Acid Storage Cabinet
or Standard Base Cabinet to be vented directly into a
Protector® Laboratory Hood. Run the vent line
through the work surface into the fume hood or connect
through separate duct system to the outside. The vent is
sized for 2" diameter nominal plastic pipe.

To ventilate the cabinet properly remove both the
exterior and interior barrel plugs from the vent
connection that you are venting.
The lower vent connection should be used for heavier
than air vapors and the higher vent connection on the
back wall should be used for lighter than air vapors to
obtain the best fume removal within the cabinet.
The cabinet vent connections are designed to accept 2"
diameter threaded metal pipe material, which can be
purchased locally. Once the connection on the back of
the cabinet has been completed, remove both the
internal and external plugs from the remaining vent
connection to allow for proper airflow from the cabinet.

access. Attach the filler panel angle directly to the back
wall of the cabinet structure using the four #8 sheet
metal screws that hold the back panel in position. Next,
attach the filler panel to this angle by the three #8 sheet
metal screws provided.
