Installing the Hood on a Supporting
Structure and Work Surface
The Protector Hood is heavy! Use caution when lifting or
moving the unit.
La Hotte Protecteur est lourd! Prudence en soulevant ou en
déplaçant l'objet.
When installing the Protector
Fume Hood onto a chemically-
resistant work surface or
benchtop, ensure that the
structure can safely support the
combined weight of the fume
hood and any related equipment.
The work surface should be at
least as wide as the hood to
properly support it. Position
front edge of fume hood 1.7"
past front edge of worksurface.
Lower base cabinets or
casework is placed flush with
front edge of worksurface as
shown in Figure 3-2.
The work surface should be
smooth and durable, such as a
chemically-resistant epoxy resin.
The surface should be nonporous
and resistant to the acids,
solvents, and chemicals used in
conjunction with the Protector
Fume Hood. The work surface
should also contain a dished
recessed area for containing
primary spills.
NOTE: Labconco recommends
supports by others for
underneath the work surface
at time of installation.

The Protector Pass-Through Hood is normally wired for 115 Volt, 50/60 Hz, 20
Amp or 230Volt, 50/60 Hz, 10 Amp electrical service. Check the I.D. plate
behind the front panel for voltage verification. The number of circuits varies
depending on the model. All of the electrical connections are terminated at the
field wiring terminal box for hook-up by a qualified electrician. We recommend
each circuit be a dedicated branch circuit. However, if wired together the
maximum load allowed is the sum of individual outlets plus the rating of the unit
(i.e. 2 Amps). The single point internal junction box is used for the connection of
the lights, blower, and duplex outlets. Refer to the wiring diagram for your
Protector XL in Appendix C: Protector Pass-Through Specifications.
The fume hood is required to be grounded to the MAINS protective earthing ground
for safe operation. Using a ring terminal sized for a 10-24 machine screw, connect
the MAINS ground conductor to the grounding lug marked with the protective
earthing symbol, . Only MAINS ground conductors should be connected to the
protective earthing ground lug, no other conductors should be connected to this
grounding lug. Using wire nuts connect the MAINS supply conductors to the fume
hood supply wires. Insure that the wires are connected as per the appropriate wire
color codes for the input voltage. For 115V Phase (Hot) is black and Neutral is
white, for 230V Phase1 is brown and Phase2 is blue. Refer to the wiring diagram for
your Protector XL in Appendix C: Protector Pass-Through Specifications.
