Fume Hood CompactLine DCL 1800 CR

POL-EKO Fume Hood CompactLine DCL 1800 CR The DCL 1800 CR is a premium 1.8-meter wide laboratory fume hood engineered for demanding chemical environments. It features a robust galvanized steel structure, a monolithic ceramic worktop with a raised marine edge, and Buchtal ceramic internal walls. Equipped with a Schneider air-flow monitoring system (EN 14175 compliant), a dual-exhaust back wall system, and energy-saving LED lighting, it provides a safe, acid-resistant environment for large-scale experiments. The unit includes integrated water and electrical utilities, a ceramic sink, and a counterbalanced toughened glass sash with additional sliding panes.

Description

The POL-EKO DCL 1800 CR is designed for laboratories that require a massive, 1750 mm wide internal working space to accommodate large apparatus or multiple simultaneous processes.5 As the “CR” (Ceramic) version, it is specifically built to withstand the harsrors of inorganic chemistry and intensive heat applications.Advanced Ceramic Protection:The internal working chamber is lined with 8 mm Buchtal large-size technical ceramic tiles.6 This glazed ceramic finish provides superior advantages over standard finishes:Unmatched Acid Resistance: Ideal for high-temperature work with concentrated mineral acids (e.g., sulfuric, nitric, or perchloric acid).Thermal Endurance: Withstands high-temperature hot plates and exothermic reactions without risk of cracking or chemical absorption.Durability: The non-porous surface ensures that even after years of use with volatile reagents, the chamber remains easy to decontaminate.Safety and Airflow Management:Double Rear Wall System: This design utilizes exhaust slots at both the top and bottom of the chamber.7 It ensures that vapors?whether lighter than air (like hydrogen) or heavier (like solvent vapors)?are effectively removed without creating turbulent “dead zones.”8Precision Monitoring: Every unit is equipped with a Schneider FM 550 airflow sensor.9 This system provides a real-time digital display of face velocity and triggers audio-visual alarms if airflow drops below safe levels (complying with PN-EN 14175).10+1Security Features: The toughened glass sash features a safety lock at 500 mm and a fail-safe system to prevent uncontrolled falling.11 A safety flap in the ceiling provides decompression in the event of a sudden pressure spike.12+1Integrated Utilities & Ergonomics:The DCL 1800 CR is a complete workstation. The monolithic ceramic worktop features an integrated ceramic sink ($280 times 80 text{ mm}$). The front panel is equipped with two BROEN water valves and two 230V electrical sockets.13 The workspace is illuminated by energy-saving LED lighting, which is physically separated from the chamber by a glass pane for safety and longevity.14Primary Applications:Industrial Chemical Synthesis: Handling large volumes of corrosive reagents.Inorganic Research: Acid digestions and trace metal analysis.Large-Scale Pharmaceutical R&D: Batch testing and pilot-scale chemical processing.Advanced Materials Testing: Curing and thermal testing of large components.

Specifications

Fume Hood CompactLine DCL 1800 CR Specs

The DCL 1800 CR is the largest standard-width laboratory fume hood in the CompactLine series from POL-EKO. The “CR” designation signifies an internal chamber lined with Buchtal large-size technical ceramic tiles, providing the highest level of thermal and chemical resistance.
