The Metal Fume Hood Built for Demanding Labs — Not Just to Pass a Test
Leakage rate ≤ 0.05 ppm at 0.5 m/s. Fully customizable. Engineered for high-temperature environments where PP hoods fall short.
Most Fume Hoods Leave Safety Gaps.
This One Doesn't.
Lab safety officers and procurement teams face the same recurring problems. Here's how the YMEN series addresses each one.
PP Hoods Fail Under Heat
Polypropylene hoods warp and degrade in high-ambient-temperature environments. Metal casing stays structurally stable where PP cannot.
Unknown Leakage Rates
Many hoods quote "safe" without proof. The YMEN series is independently tested to ASHRAE 110-2016 — leakage is documented at ≤ 0.05 ppm.
One-Size-Fits-All Doesn't Fit
Different labs need different worktop chemistries, liner materials, and base cabinets. The YMEN series is configurable across every major dimension.
Weak Frames Under Heavy Equipment
Most hoods carry load via the cabinet shell. The YMEN uses an independent structural frame under the hood for superior loading capacity and rigidity.
Designed Around the Chemistry, Not Around the Price Point
Every construction decision on the YMEN series has a functional reason behind it.
ASHRAE 110-2016 Compliant
Leakage ≤ 0.05 ppm at 0.5 m/s face velocity — tested, not estimated.
Independent Structural Frame
Hood-independent frame delivers stronger load capacity and long-term dimensional stability.
Arc-Design Air Foil
Curved CRS steel airfoil guides airflow smoothly into the hood, reducing turbulence at the sash face.
Marine-Edge Worktop
Raised perimeter edge prevents chemical spills and water from reaching the floor.
160 mm Aluminum Handle
Heavy-duty lab-class aluminum profile handle, custom-length at 160 mm for firm, ergonomic sash control.
TIFF Touch Screen Panel
English-language TIFF touch-screen control panel — intuitive monitoring at a glance.
900+ Lux LED Lighting
Dual 18W LED lamps deliver over 900 Lux on the worktop surface for clear visibility.
Tempered Glass Sash
1.5 mm aluminum-framed sash with 5 mm tempered glass. Max opening height: 720 mm.
Choose Your Width. Specs Don't Compromise.
Three standard widths (1200 / 1500 / 1800 mm) — same build quality, scaled air capacity.
