Operating the Vertical-Rising Sash
Because of the Protector XLE Hood counterbalanced sash mechanism, it will take
only a few pounds of force to move the sash up or down between the fully closed
position and the 18" open position. You can operate the sash smoothly with one
or two hands positioned any where along the handle. The vertical-rising sash may
be raised to a maximum 28" operating height, but the sash will automatically
close back to the 18" opening position unless locked in the full open position.
The airflow requirements should be sized for the 18" operating height.
Operating the Blower
Your Protector Fume Hood utilizes a remote style blower, which can be activated
by turning the blower switch to “ON.” You can validate the hood performance by
watching smoke drawn into the hood face opening.
Operating the Lights
Your Protector Fume Hood utilizes a factory-wired fluorescent light to illuminate
the hood interior. Simply turn the light switch to “ON” to operate.
Working in Your Protector XLE
Planning
• Thoroughly understand procedures and equipment required before
beginning work.
• Arrange for minimal disruptions, such as room traffic or entry into the
room while the hood is in use.
