Is your fume cupboard or laminar flow cabinet effective at removing contaminates?
Are your workers trained in the correct use to ensure exposure is controlled?
Do you have certification for your fume cupboard to show that it is effective at removing contaminates?
Good maintenance and regular testing ensures that existing flow cupboards continue to remove contaminations in the air before people breathe them, meaning a safer workforce and cleaner environment. It is a legal requirement that any employer who uses laminar flow cabinets must ensure it is operating effectively and is serviced by skilled professionals, and that’s where we can help.
The Australian Standard 2243.8 Fume Cupboards requires that spray booths meet specified air movement requirements and be tested to an agreed schedule.
Test reports clearly and concisely identify all measurement results along with schematic diagrams of individual systems to identify test point locations and recommendations for remedial action deemed necessary to ensure the continued effectiveness of the system
Where applicable the following methods of investigation / measurement are made on each system:
- Smoke Test
- Face Velocity Tests
- Physical Inspection of Components
- Lighting Levels
- Noise Levels
