These cupboards are ideal when perchloric, hydrofluoric or other corrosive substances are used.

​

Water wash fume cupboards are built in standard configuration and have two options Main fed supply or Re circulatory.

Mains fed water wash fume cupboards have a water front control on the service plate and dump directly to a waste connection. Extracted air passes through a knitmesh housing to remove moisture before discharging to atmosphere.

Re circulatory type fume cupboards work when the fume cupboard is switched on and the water is recycled via a holding tank and pump. Extracted air passes through a knitmesh housing to remove moisture before discharging to atmosphere

​​

Both types of fume cupboards are manufactured to UK Standards BS EN 14175.
