- The document discusses Paramount® Ductless Enclosures, which are self-contained work stations that use carbon filters to protect operators from harmful vapors without requiring ductwork. They utilize energy-efficient motors and patented containment features. - Carbon filters use granulated coal carbon or coconut shell carbon to chemically adsorb vaporous/gaseous contaminants. Properties like molecular weight and vapor pressure affect filtration efficiency. - The enclosures have a digital control center with vapor sensor and airflow monitor to maintain safety. Stackable filters accommodate different chemicals. Construction is chemically resistant and durable.

Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Activated Carbon vs. Treated Carbon Filters Activated Carbon Treated Carbon Organic Filters Acid/Sulfur • # Carbons Formaldehyde/Formalin • Molecular weight Ammonia/Amine • Adsorption only Radioisotope Incomplete saturation Mixed Bed Stripping from media • Treated with chemical 100% activated carbon • Neutralization • Complete saturation • 75% treated/25% activated
- 6. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Self‐contained work stations that use carbon filters to protect operator from harmful vapors Require no ductwork and can be moved from lab to lab Utilize energy‐efficient motors (ECM) Patented containment features Stackable filters for multiple chemical applications Digital control center with vapor sensor and airflow monitor
- 7. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Energy efficient ECM motor uses less energy, runs cooler and quieter. Patented containment enhancing design features ensure operator protection from fumes, vapors, gases and particles. LCD display with digital control center, Safety‐First™ Vapor Sensor and Smart‐ Flow™ Airflow Monitor to monitor filter breakthrough and air speed to maintain user safety at all times.
- 8. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Smart-Flow System adjusts motor Accommodate seven filter speed automatically—maintains types to cover a wide Quieter, cooler and more constant airflow at calibrated value variety of needs energy-efficient ECM impeller Upper Containment Sash Foil directs contaminants away from Fluorescent light user’s breathing zone illuminates interior. Patented Clean-Sweep™ Air Foil Patented rear baffle Side-entry air foils Ergonomic angled sash and patented sloped Optional clear safety glass front baffle provides 360º visibility Safety-First™ Vapor Sensor Upper Dilution Air Supply sweeps clean air to back of the sash Filter efficiency performance independently verified by University of Kansas
- 9. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Seven different stackable filters can be combined to handle different chemicals at the same time. Solid and durable construction. Available in multiple widths, depths and heights.
- 10. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Energy Savings Recirculation of filtered, tempered air eliminates energy waste associated with traditional, ducted fume hoods. The ECM motor and light fixture in a 3′ Paramount unit use only 65 watts — about as much energy as one 60 watt light bulb! (Previous 3’ model used 330 watts) Reduced Heat Load 3’ unit heat load of 222 BTU/hr Previous 3’ model heat load of 1126 BTU/hr Noise Reduction 3’ ranges 46‐62dbA vs. previous model 65dbA 6’ ranges 57‐66dbA vs. previous model 68dbA
- 11. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Containment enhancing features Patented slotted rear baffle promotes horizontal laminar flow reducing turbulence Upper Containment Sash Foil directs contaminants away from the operator’s breathing zone
- 12. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Containment enhancing features Side Entry Air Foils promote horizontal flow and direct airflow into the enclosure work area Aerodynamic airfoil with Clean‐Sweep™ openings directs air into the enclosure and across the work surface
- 13. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Containment enhancing features Upper Dilution Air Supply purges the top of the chamber and bathes the area behind the sash in clean room air
- 14. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Digital Control Center LCD Screen Display Filter type Filter life Airflow Alarms/alert messages Blower, Light, and Task timers Touchpad and screen at eye level
- 15. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Smart-Flow™ Airflow Monitor Maintains constant airflow Displays face velocity on LCD Display Visible/Audible alarms are displayed on LCD display
- 16. Paramount® Ductless Enclosures Safety-First™ Vapor Sensor Detects chemical breakthrough and filter saturation Visible/Audible alarms are displayed on LCD display Vapor sensor optimal detection concentration 1‐10ppm vs. current sensor calibrated at 50ppm. Two sensors allow safety backup monitoring of breakthrough. Accurate detection of breakthrough maintains operator safety. Early alert detects initial breakthrough and provides warning message to user that approximately 5‐10% filter life remains.
