Congratulations!
By choosing Captair® Flex™ ductless filtering fume hoods, you have

chosen an efficient, reliable way to ensure safety.
Your Captair® Flex™ filtering fume hood guarantees that you are
protected when working with chemicals that pose an inhalation risk for
the user.
Your fume hood functions based on the recirculation of filtered air, which
makes it possible to use high-efficiency filters to trap toxic particles
and molecules and to recycle this air within the laboratory. The air
downstream from the hood’s modular filtration column, which uses the
new Flex™ technology, is thus free of all chemical pollutants.
Nevertheless, the effectiveness of this system is directly dependent

upon it being used correctly and monitored by its users. Your
laboratory may also benefit from ergonomic, economic, and ecological
advantages provided by the Captair® Flex™ fume hood throughout its
life cycle.
Designed to protect the user,

the environment and your budget.
Do you want to work in a 100% safe environment year after year?

A careful reading of this manual is a must!

Your new Captair® Flex™ ductless filtering fume hood

offers several advantages from day one:
Protect the environment

Since no ductwork is required, a captair ® Flex™ filtered
enclosure totally eliminates the direct discharge of
pollutants into the atmosphere and therefore contributes
to the protection of the environment. Furthermore, a
captair ® Flex™ filtered enclosure does not generate any
pollution linked to energy production unlike a traditional
ducted fume hood.
Eliminate installation costs

The installation of a captair ® Flex™ filtered enclosure is
€
quick and easy. There is no need for a ductwork linked
to an air supply / air extraction system, in comparison to
traditional ducted systems. A single electrical outlet is all
that is needed to make it work Its setting up can be realized
€
at any time, without any complex forward planning. Do not
hesitate to compare this cost to a traditional ducted fume
hood cost.
Achieve significant energy savings

Ductwork air balance is essential to the proper operation of
a traditional ducted fume hood however; it is also the source
of very important energy consumption. In fact, captair ®
Flex™ filtered enclosures do not generate any energy costs
associated with the use of expensive extraction systems
or conditioned air supplies. Operational costs remain at a
minimum even when taking into account filter changes.
Benefit from the use of an immediately

€
available unit, easy to relocate.
Captair ® Flex™ filtered enclosures can be moved depending
on the protection needs of the laboratory and can be easily
relocated without disturbing room air balance.

AFNOR NF X 15-211: 2009 standard

Appointed by the AFNOR, the Union de Normalisation de la Mécanique (UNM), composed of a college of
experts (INRS, national organizations, professional syndicates), has established the AFNOR NF X 15-211 :
2009 standard. This standard applies to filtration fume hoods (also named recirculatory fume hoods or
ETRAF) designed for research, analysis, education works,…. for all laboratories where chemicals subjected
to professional exposure limit values (OEL or TLV) are manipulated. This text imposes performances
criteria linked to:
Filtration efficiency
Containment efficiency
Air face velocity
As well as a specific documentation attached with each filtration fume hood.
The classes established by the standard

* : The particulate filter must be at least of H14 type according to the NF EN 1822-1 standard
** : The filters for vapours must be submitted to two successive performance tests with Cyclohexane and Isopropanol for the filters designed to retain
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC). Another test for the acid vapours is carried out with Hydrochloric acid.
The filtration efficiency

It is defined by the filter capacity to retain noxious molecules manipulated within
the enclosure and qualifies the quality of the recirculated air at the filter exhaust.

Air face velocity

It represents the fume hood capacity to create a dynamic barrier between
the operator and the handling.
For filtration fume hoods with fixed front panel, the air face velocity at any point of the front
openings must be between 0.4 and 0.6 m/s.They must be equipped with a permanent monitoring
system for the air face velocity which also acts as a real time containment indicator.
The documentation
Filtration fume hoods must be delivered with a booklet containing an
exhaustive list of chemicals, certified by the manufacturer, that can be
handled into the filtering fume hood in the conditions described in the
AFNOR NF X 15-211: 2009 standard.The following information must be
indicated in the booklet for each chemical listed:
• The chemical name, its formula, its CAS number, its boiling • The maximum quantity

• The type of saturation detection system for the filter(s) • The name of the test laboratory having
performed the test
Erlab® has created its own booklet called the CHEMICAL LISTING.This booklet contains a list of
approved chemicals indicating analysis data for about 700 molecular substances commonly used
in laboratories. This booklet is delivered with each unit, as per the requirements of the AFNOR
NF X 15-211: 2009 standard.

Monitoring air face velocity
The anemometer provided with your Captair® Flex™ fume hood allows the user to
constantly monitor the face velocity.
If the anemometer is not installed during assembly, please install this device according to
the steps listed in the installation instructions provided with your fume hood.
Leveling bubble
Range of movement
of the air speed
indicator strip.
When reading the face velocity, first be sure to check that the leveling bubble on the
anemometer is positioned correctly. To ensure proper movement of the strip, the anemo-
meter must be level. The air face velocity must be between 0.4 and 0.6 m/s (as required
by AFNOR NF X 15-211: 2009 standard).
What should you do if the strip does not move or if its movement is irregular?
First of all, verify that the fume hood’s ventilation system is turned on.
If the strip’s movement is highly irregular, verify that the strip is correctly positioned in
the housing located within the anemometer as shown in the diagrams below. The two
pins of the strip must be correctly positioned in the support slots.

parameters set for the sensor, make it possible to detect saturation of the main filter.
How do you modify the settings of the sensor ?
Before turning on your Captair® Flex™ fume hood for the first time, verify that the de-
tector setting corresponds to the code provided by the erlab® laboratory after analyzing
and validating your application. This configuration was factory-set using the information
provided.
This information is available at any time on your Valipass® form,

REPLACING THE FILTERS
Your device is equipped with FLEX™ technology that was configured to the user’s pro-
tection needs when the device was purchased. The design of the column is thus directly
dependent on the applications carried out in the enclosure. These applications may
change over time.Your FLEX™ technology can therefore be reconfigured if your fume
hood is used for applications other than those anticipated when the device is first set up.
The table below summarizes all possible Flex™ technology configurations for your de-
vice.

The column is guaranteed to be airtight:
The design of the filtration cartridges guarantees that

the filtration column is completely airtight. The vertical
stacking principle of the modular filtration column uses a
gel-based joint technology that, when applied to the peri-
meter of all of the filtration cartridges, ensures a perfect
seal of the entire column thanks to gravity.
Be sure that the filters are positioned as shown in this

THE «REVOLVING» SYSTEM
This simple concept involves placing one chamber equipped with a molecular detection
system between two filters having the same capacity. When the main filter is saturated,
the molecules are directed to an identical back-up filter that is placed just above the
detection chamber.
This system prevents all molecules from being released into the environment since they
are automatically absorbed by the back-up filter. The back-up filter replaces the main
filter when the main filter has reached its maximum saturation point. A new filter is then
installed in place of the back-up filter. This cycle may be repeated indefinitely.
Compared to traditional filtration systems, the “revolving filter” concept increases the
retention capacity of the filter by 25% and decreases replacement costs by 25%.

Replacement Hepa filter procedure
Before the maintenance:

• The customer must send a list with all manipulated products in the enclosure and all the information useful to determine the toxicity
of those which will allow the technician to determine individual security equipments needed
• No staff in the room and all manipulations need to be stopped
• The laboratory must be mechanically or naturally aerated during the intervention
Individual security equipments needed:

• overall + mobcap + bloomers
• particulate mask
• goggles
• laboratory gloves
This procedure has been made for HEPA filters located on the low part of the filtration column and
dedicated to the filtration of powders coming from the enclosure.
Following the Chronological order is imperative:
1. Switch on the Ductless Fume Hood

2. Fix the particles trapped by the Hepa filter by spraying the air lacquer (non inflammable) by crossed and repeated
movements (to be done into the hood) on the lower face of the filter
3. Let dry for 5 minutes with the ventilation turned on
4. Switch off the ventilation, unplug the unit electric cable, the fan electric cable (or cables if several filtration
columns) and the sample silicon pipe
5. Take off, cautionary, molecular filters (if any) and the fan box
6. Unwrap, cautionary, the new filter. Keep the plastic protection and the box to bag the used filter. The plastic
protection must be placed on a flat surface close to the intervention spot.
7. Take off the used Hepa filter, lay it on the plastic protection, dirty face down.
8. Wash the filter housing with laboratory clothes impregnated with cleanser liquid. Wash the internal enclosure
with the same way by fogging.
9. Wrap the used filter with used clothes and gloves. Close the plastic protection air tight with large scotch tape. If
the plastic protection is damaged, do not hesitate to warp it again in an additional air tight bag.
10. Bag the sealed filter into the new filter’s box and close it with scotch tape.
[Used filters must be disposed through an appropriate process, valorizing chemical wastes]
11. Install the new HEPA filter and reinstall the main molecular filter (if one), the column of filtration and the back-up
filter (if one). Be sure that different layers are perfectly piled up with blades perfectly introduced into gutter.
Note that it must form a perfect parallelepiped.
Note that, in that process dedicated to the HEPA filter, molecular filter change is not considered
12. Reconnect pipes and electric cables, switch on the fume hood. Security control of the air face velocity according
to the method described by the NFX 15-211 : 2009.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CHECKING THE MECHANICAL PARTS
Hinges:
Hinges must be properly attached and should not jam; they must allow the front panel of
the hood to be instantly and easily lifted upward.
Acrylic parts:
These parts must be clean; white streaks or spatters indicate rather heavy use of acid
(hydrocholoric acid) or products handled at a high temperature. Ensuring the transpa-
rency of the panels is a part of regular maintenance for the enclosure.
CLEANING THE ENCLOSURE
The enclosure must be cleaned on a regular basis.
This can be done using several different methods:
- Using soapy water then rinsing with clean water and drying with a smooth, non-abra-
sive paper towel.
- Using a commercial pH neutralizer and drying with a smooth, non-abrasive paper towel.
- Using a commercial window cleaner.
Metal-plated parts:
These parts should be inspected and must be free from any sign of corrosion.
Verify that there is no stagnant water in the retention tray.
Clean the retention tray if necessary.
