New NEBB fume hood performance testing standard now available
NEBB’s Fume Hood Testing Committee has released the latest version of Procedural Standard for Fume Hood Performance Testing.
The purpose of the new, second edition of this standard is to establish a uniform and systematic set of criteria for the performance testing of fume hoods. Similar to the other NEBB disciplines, the Procedural Standard serves as the anchor for the program. According to NEBB, fume hoods and other safety control environments, such as bio-safety cabinets, offer a distinct set of challenges to the firms and individuals testing the field performance of these specialized containment enclosures.
