The Protector Airo Filtered Fume Hood requires no ducting and is available in 3' and 4' widths and 31.7" and 37.7" depths. Neutrodine® Unisorb Filtration Technology offers comprehensive molecular filtration. eGuard® communication software offers real-time monitoring on the user’s phone or computer. From a remote location, data such as usage authorization, filter saturation detection, sash position and temperature may be observed and managed.

Erlab-proven Neutrodine® Unisorb Filters are the heart of GFH Filtration Technology.

Benchtop models include a fiberglass panelized liner. Models are available for carbon-only, carbon with acid sensor, carbon with formaldehyde sensor, or HEPA-only filtration. Filters are sold separately. To determine if your application is right for a Protector Airo, please request a Chemical Assessment from a Labconco specialist who can recommend the appropriate enclosure and filters for your application.
