Connecting to the Optional Filter Packs

Both HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) and activated carbon filter pack
assemblies are available for use with the Protector Radioisotope Hood. Please
contact your local EPA or NRC office for manufacturers of exhaust filters
appropriate for use with radio-chemicals. The HEPA filter assembly can be used
to remove most particulate forms of radio-chemicals being used today. The
activated carbon filter is used in the removal of gaseous form radiochemicals and
can be used in conjunction with the HEPA filter, depending on the materials being
used inside the fume hood. The filters themselves should be located as close as
possible to the hood to expose as little of the ductwork system as possible to the
radiochemicals being used. Consult your company Safety Officer directly for
specific filter ratings on radiochemicals being used.

IMPORTANT WARNING: Used filters contain hazardous
material. Observe all federal, state and local EPA regulations
for their handling and disposal.

AVERTISSEMENT IMPORTANT: Les filtres usagés
contiennent des matières dangereuses. Respectez tous les
règlements de l'EPA fédérales, étatiques et locales pour leur
manipulation et l'élimination.
