INTRODUCTION 

General Description 

 
The Labconco Canopy Hood is designed for special purpose functions in which heat, steam or 
odors are generated.  Large or bulky apparatus such as tissue processor, steam baths or open 
Kjeldahls can be used in conjunction with the Canopy Hood.  The epoxy-coated superstructure has 
an integral baffle to increase slot velocities and enhance the overall capture efficiency of the hood. 
 

Performance 

 
All component parts of the Canopy Hood are epoxy-coated except the baffle support brackets 
which are stainless steel.  The baffle design enhances perimeter air velocities and capture 
efficiency.  Static pressure loss through the hood shall not exceed .64 inches at 907 CFM and 1.25 
inches at 1,360 CFM for the 4-foot unit.  Static pressure loss through the 6-foot unit shall not 
exceed .90 inches at 1,289 CFM and 1.65 inch at 1,934 CFM. 
 
It is not intended that this hood be used with flammable or explosive atmospheres unless equipped 
with explosion proof components and installed in accordance with all pertinent electrical codes.
