Maximum working space, low energy usage and excellent containment are all on offer with the APEX fume cupboard.

The radius profile frontal design of the APEX fume cupboard range provides a smooth curved entrance and the high-level glass panel gives full viewable access to the internal chamber. Both the APEX-2 and APEX-3 operate at low volume flow rates down to 0.3 m/s.

The APEX-2 has a single skin chamber which can accommodate a much wider worktop than a conventional twin skin design. For example, an 1800 mm wide APEX-2 has a wider internal chamber than a 2000 mm wide traditional fume cupboard. The APEX-2 fume cupboard also has a generous working height and depth, and the glass sides make for a lighter work space.

The APEX-3 offers the benefits of the APEX-2, with a twin skin side wall to allow service outlets to be side-mounted.

The Apex fume cupboard range is certified to BS EN 14175. The key Robustness of Containment Protection Factor (PFR) reading is 1,500,000 for an 1800 mm wide version at 0.3 m/s face velocity
