Core Benefits
- Modular by design — configure the lower cabinet system, control placement, and airflow type independently, so the unit fits your lab layout instead of forcing a redesign around it
- European-style alloy profile structure — a durable main frame that supports long-term structural integrity across demanding lab environments
- Scalable specifications — add or adjust modules as your project budget and requirements evolve, without paying for capacity you don’t need
- Verified safety performance — designed and manufactured under the ASHRAE110-2016 standard, with a sash balance requiring less than 0.3KG of lifting force for smooth, low-effort operation
- Superior visibility — explosion-proof glass on three sides keeps the work zone visible from multiple angles, supporting both safety oversight and day-to-day usability
Why This Product Matters
Fixed-configuration fume hoods often force a compromise: the lab either overpays for features it won’t use or settles for a layout that doesn’t match its actual workflow. The JH-FC028 removes that trade-off. Its modular lower cabinet system lets facilities and procurement teams choose from floor, movable, acid-base, drug, or fire-proof cabinet options—building out the exact storage and safety configuration each project calls for. Combined with configurable CAV or VAV airflow control, the unit adapts to labs handling variable ventilation demands, rather than requiring a hood swap down the line.
Who It’s For
The JH-FC028 is ideal for procurement teams, lab planners, and contractors managing diverse laboratory projects where flexibility, safety, and scalability are critical. This includes applications such as university teaching laboratories, research institutions with multidisciplinary setups, and large-scale, multi-room facility projects requiring tailored configurations. It is particularly well-suited for laboratories undergoing renovations or facility expansions, where adaptability to evolving requirements eliminates the need for costly upgrades.
Additionally, the JH-FC028 meets the needs of chemical research labs prioritizing safety and usability, pharmaceutical labs handling sensitive compounds that require specific storage solutions, and industrial R&D facilities where modularity aligns with project-phase budgeting. Buyers benefit from its adaptability to current needs while ensuring future-proof configurability, enabling seamless updates or reconfigurations without a completely new fume hood.
Key Features
Modular Lower Cabinet System
Choose from floor, movable, acid-base, drug, and fire-proof cabinet options to match specific storage and chemical-handling needs—configurable at the point of order.
Configurable Control Systems
Control panels can be installed on the sides or front of the unit, giving lab planners flexibility to match control placement to bench layout and user workflow.
CAV and VAV System Options
Select constant air volume (CAV) or variable air volume (VAV) control depending on the lab’s ventilation demands and energy efficiency goals.
Three-Sided Explosion-Proof Glass
Extends visibility across three sides of the hood, supporting safer supervision and easier monitoring of work in progress.
Low-Effort Sash Operation
A sash balance system requiring less than 0.3KG of lifting force ensures smooth, consistent operation throughout the unit’s working life.
Corrosion-Resistant Construction
1.2mm cold-rolled steel plate with anti-corrosive epoxy powder coating protects the structure against the chemical exposure typical of active lab environments.

FAQ
Q: Can the lower cabinet configuration be adjusted post-installation?
A: The modular design is best configured during production to meet your project needs, ensuring compatibility and operational efficiency. However, you can make future adjustments or additions with compatible cabinet modules. Share your layout or future requirements, and our team can advise on feasibility and options.
Q: Are the cabinets customizable for specific chemical storage needs?
A: Yes. Each cabinet type is tailored for different storage purposes — acid-base storage cabinets for corrosion-resistant solutions, drug cabinets for controlled substances, and fire-proof cabinets for flammable materials. Specify your requirements during the order process, and we’ll recommend the optimal combination.
Q: Can the control panel placement be changed after the unit is installed?
A: While the control panel placement is fixed based on your order configuration, new panels can be added or relocated during modifications or upgrades. We recommend detailing your workflow and bench layout during the customization phase to avoid changes later.
Q: Which types of labs benefit most from the modular design?
A: Labs that require adaptability, such as university research facilities, multi-discipline institutions, and pharmaceutical production sites, gain the most from the JH-FC028. Its modularity ensures seamless integration within both existing and evolving laboratory setups.
Q: Is it easy to integrate this fume hood into an existing ducted system?
A: Yes. The JH-FC028 is compatible with standard ducted ventilation systems. We provide technical support and custom fitting options to ensure smooth integration with your facility’s current exhaust infrastructure.
Q: What is the typical lead time for delivery and installation?
A: Standard configurations are ready for production immediately, with a typical lead time of 6–8 weeks, including shipping. Custom projects or modifications may extend timelines, but we provide precise schedules upon order confirmation.
Q: What’s the difference between the CAV and VAV airflow options?
A: CAV maintains a constant air volume regardless of sash position, while VAV adjusts airflow based on sash height, offering greater energy efficiency in labs with variable usage patterns. Our team can help determine which suits your facility’s ventilation setup.
Q: Does the JH-FC028 meet international safety standards?
A: Yes. The unit is designed and manufactured under the ASHRAE110-2016 standard, with SGS-tested performance documentation available for procurement and compliance review.
Q: Can dimensions be customized for a specific lab layout?
A: Yes. Custom dimensions and configurations are part of our standard manufacturing process. Submit your technical drawings or room layout when requesting a quote.
