Labconco Corporation has combined its patented fully-featured Protector Hood design with Erlab’s GreenFumeHood (GFH) Technology to deliver a multi-use fume hood that requires no ducting. The Protector Echo delivers safety, energy savings, and adaptability to ever-changing laboratory spaces.

To most lab workers, even those who spend much of their days at or near fume hoods, these safety enclosures are part of the furniture or infrastructure. A hood is a hood is a hood—except when processes require special services or utilities. While many hoods are indeed production-level, off-the-shelf products, almost any productivity- or safety-enhancing feature may be added to standard models.

Lab glassware washers offer an excellent solution for laboratories that need to clean dirty labware including beakers, test tubes, Erlenmeyer flasks, cylinders, and BOD bottles. Technicians may be unsure whether dirty plasticware can also be cleaned in a glassware washer, leading them to hand wash the equipment which can be extremely time consuming. Lisa Choplo, Application Specialist at Miele Professional, addresses the most common concerns users have about cleaning plastics in a glassware washer.
