Fume hood systems are used in laboratories to remove chemical vapors, gases and thermal effects. The use of gas and water taps in these systems is extremely important in terms of providing a safe working environment. Here are the details about the use of gas and water taps in fume hoods:

Gas Taps

Purposes of Use:

• Gas Source Control: To safely manage the flow of flammable or reactive gases.

• Ignition: Can be used in some applications where the gas may be flammable.

Features:

• Fast On/Off: Ability to quickly and safely control the gas flow.

• Sealing: Equipped with sealing elements for a safe connection.

• Fire Safety: Safety features specially designed for flammable gases.

Water Taps

Purposes of Use:

• Cleaning and Cooling: For cleaning or cooling the equipment used in the fume hood.

• Flame Extinguishing: Water source that can be used in emergency situations.

Features:

• Easy Access: Design that allows the water flow to be opened and closed quickly.

• Different Flow Options: Adjustable according to use with low and high flow options.

Usage Instructions

1. Installation: Taps should be installed in an ergonomic position on the fume hood.

2. Connection Check: Make sure that gas and water connections are leak-proof. Regular checks should be made.

3. Usage: Move slowly when opening or closing taps. Avoid sudden movements.

4. Emergency Preparation: In case of a possible gas leak, the tap should be kept in an easily accessible place to close immediately.

Safety Precautions

• Ventilation: Make sure that ventilation is sufficient with the fume hood system.

• Personal Protection: It is recommended to wear protective glasses and gloves during use.

• Emergency Procedures: It is important to know the emergency plans to be implemented in case of gas leakage or fire.

Safe use of gas and water taps in fume hoods increases the safety of the laboratory environment and minimizes possible hazards.
