Radiochemistry fume hood

Ensure precise containment and filtration during radiochemical processes, safeguarding both operators and substances with advanced protective measures, critical for sterile injectable pharmaceuticals production and radioactive tracer applications.

Contains and Filters Radiopharmaceutical Emissions

The FHR Radiochemistry Fume Hood from Comecer is expertly engineered to provide robust containment and filtration in radiopharmaceutical and nuclear medicine processes. This hood offers high efficiency with its double-walled aspiration and filtration system, integrating absolute and activated carbon filters within its structure to mitigate hazardous emissions effectively. It supports applications in radiochemistry and aseptic pharmaceutical environments, producing end-products like technetium-99m diagnostic agents and gallium-68 radiolabeling kits. Designed for both liquid and gaseous handling, it features remote controls for fluid management, ensuring sterile and controlled processes.

Constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel with a Scotch-BriteTM finish for durability and corrosion resistance, the workbench is equipped with safety enhancements like a Plexiglas sliding door for front access and a raised edge to prevent spillage. The FHR hood also ensures operational safety and efficiency with its built-in electric gear case for liquid waste discharge and automatic water flow interruption feature.

Meeting stringent CEI standards, this equipment includes two electrical outlets and a manometer for filter status monitoring. It aligns with GMP requirements, making it suitable for installations in hospital pharmacies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and nuclear medicine facilities. The inclusion of user-friendly features, like a diaphragm keyboard and photoelectric sensors for foot-activated water control, further facilitate seamless integration into your laboratory or processing environments.
