Description
DCL 1200 CR: Extreme Chemical Resistance for Heavy-Duty Lab ApplicationsThe POL-EKO DCL 1200 CR is a robust floor-standing fume hood built for laboratories that perform aggressive chemical synthesis or handle high-concentration acids. The “CompactLine” design optimizes floor space while maintaining a spacious 1150 mm wide internal working area.Advanced Ceramic Protection (CR Variant):Unlike standard fume hoods that use epoxy-coated steel or phenolic resin linings, the CR model is outfitted with 8 mm Buchtal large-size ceramic tiles on the side and back walls. This lining offers the highest level of protection against:Aggressive Acids: Including high-temperature perchloric or hydrofluoric acid applications.Thermal Stress: Excellent resistance to heat generated by hot plates or exothermic reactions.Ease of Decontamination: The non-porous ceramic surface is easy to clean and does not absorb chemical residues.Superior Airflow and Safety:Double Rear Wall System: Features exhaust slots at both the top and bottom to ensure that vapors both lighter and heavier than air are extracted without turbulence or “dead zones.”Precision Monitoring: Comes standard with the Schneider FM 550 monitoring set, which provides real-time face velocity readings and audible/visual alarms to ensure operator safety per EN 14175.Ceiling Safety Flap: An integrated decompression flap provides safety in the event of a sudden pressure increase in the working chamber.Ergonomics and Integrated Utilities:The fume hood is designed for daily ease of use, featuring a counterbalanced toughened glass sash with a safety lock at 500 mm. The front panel includes two 230V electrical sockets and two BROEN water valves. A suspended ceramic sink ($280 times 80 text{ mm}$) is integrated directly into the monolithic ceramic worktop.Primary Applications:Inorganic Chemistry: Working with strong mineral acids and bases.Trace Metal Analysis: Sample digestion in clean-room style ceramic environments.Pharmaceutical R&D: Synthesis of sensitive compounds requiring a highly stable, inert workspace.Industrial QC: Testing of materials under harsh chemical conditions.
