- With the mode switch in the “AUTO OPEN” position
the Automatic Sash Positioning System shall operate
as follows on the upper sash:
- With the lower sash closed to floor and when
a laboratory technician is sensed in front of
the fume hood, the upper sash shall open in less
than 3 seconds to a working height of 18 inches
±1 inch (specify for installation).
- Once the sash has risen, the laboratory
technician shall be able to manually move the
sash to a higher or lower position without
releasing any type of sash locks.
- Once NO moving objects are sensed in front
of the fume hood, the control module shall delay
60 seconds (adjustable), then slowly close the
sash in less than 10 seconds.
- During sash closure, if an object is sensed
in the path of the sash, the amber light
illuminates and the sash stops without making
contact with the object. When a laboratory
technician is sensed in front of the hood, the
sash will re-open allowing the removal of the
object.
- Upon power or instrument air failure the
upper sash shall be manually movable.
- During equipment change out with the lower
sash is raised, a red light is illuminated and
the Automatic Sash Positioning System is
disengaged allowing the upper sash is able to be
manually movable.
- With the mode switch in the “PUSH BUTTON”
position the Automatic Sash Positioning System shall
operate as follows on the upper sash:
- With the lower sash closed to floor
and when a laboratory technician is sensed in
front of the fume hood and the “Push to Open”
button is activated, the upper sash shall open
in less than 3 seconds to a working height of 18
inches ±1 inch (specify for installation).
- Once the sash has risen, the laboratory
technician shall be able to manually move the
sash to a higher or lower position without
releasing any type of sash locks.
- Once NO moving objects are sensed in front
of the fume hood, the control module shall delay

manually movable.
- Additional options for this Automatic Sash Position
System
- Object Alarm: while the amber light is
illuminated an audible alarm sounds.
- Sash Interference Dry Contact: while the
amber light is illuminated a dry contact closes
for remote monitoring by building systems.
- Automatic Fume Hood
Light: when a laboratory technician is
sensed in front of the fume hood a 10Amp SPST
dry contact will close allowing the fume hood
light to be illuminated.
