Laboratory Control:

fume hood controllerControl of fumes within laboratories and reseach centers is critical toward ensuring employee safety.

While the individual rooms must be controlled, the fume hoods are always of greatest concern given the toxic nature of the fumes. To maximize safety, proper ventilation, temperature and air velocity must all be maintained while energy usage is also considered.

For air velocity control within a fume hood, Triatek employs both a sash and sidewall sensor. In fact, Triatek was a pioneer in using both types of sensor. Use of both sensor allows for an initial rapid response to maximize containment when a sash is opened while also providing a mechnism to throttle back air flow velocity once an operator stands in front of the fume hood. By using these two sensors, Triatek fume hood controllers maximize safety while also helping to minimize energy required by the fume hood itself.

A Total Lab Solution

While Triatek controllers have multiple inputs and outputs providing a number of wiring options, no one controller can work for every application. Therefore, Triatek offers both a LON and BACnet version in addition to a standalone fume hood monitor.
