Spot Extractors (also known as Fume Extractor Arms or Local Exhaust Arms) are flexible, point-source ventilation devices designed to capture and remove hazardous fumes, vapors, gases, smoke, and dust directly at the source, before they can spread into the laboratory environment. They provide localized protection for personnel by preventing inhalation of harmful airborne contaminants.
Spot extractors are constructed from durable, chemical-resistant materials such as polypropylene, aluminum, or stainless steel, with transparent polycarbonate or acrylic hoods for visibility. Their flexible, adjustable arms allow users to easily position the hood close to the emission source for maximum efficiency.
