Description
The Airone 1000DS is a semi-mobile ducted fume cupboard designed to support practical science teaching in secondary schools, colleges and sixth forms. Developed specifically for educational environments, it combines safe contaminant extraction with excellent visibility, helping teachers deliver engaging science demonstrations while maintaining a safe laboratory environment.
Unlike filtered fume cupboards, the Airone 1000DS is connected to an external duct system, carrying airborne contaminants safely away from the laboratory and discharging them to atmosphere. This eliminates the need for activated carbon filter replacement and provides a long-term solution for schools requiring regular practical science activities.
Designed for Science Demonstrations
The Airone 1000DS features laminated glass panels to the sides and rear, providing 360-degree visibility and allowing students to clearly observe demonstrations from multiple positions within the classroom. The semi-mobile design enables the unit to be manoeuvred into place when required and stored when not in use.
Connected via the Safelab Docking Station, the cupboard receives power, gas and water services whilst maintaining the flexibility required within modern teaching spaces.
