Classroom Demonstration Hood
HEMCO’s Classroom Demonstration Hood is ideal for classroom experiments and demonstrations due to its viewing visibility from all four sides. An instructor can perform a science demonstration while the class can gather around and safely observe. The hood can also be used as an individual student workstation or vented storage enclosure. A hinged viewing window or optional horizontal sliding glass panels allow for easy access and user safety. An integral exhaust blower safely exhausts fumes and odors. A vapor-proof light is factory installed.
