Set up a clean air environment for working with sensitive samples in small-scale experiments. The Ossila Laminar Flow Hood is a simple-to-use, benchtop system designed to easily integrate uniform air flow into your lab capabilties.
Unlike many other laminar flow hoods, the system is fully equipped as standard with a HEPA filter, pre-filter, environmental sensors, control interface, UV light, and tray. Plus, the flat-pack design means you can assemble the hood according to your experimental needs:
- In the horizontal orientation, achieve clean laminar air flow with minimal turbulence for enhanced sample protection against external contamination.
- The vertical orientation can accommodate bulky equipment and reduces cross contamination between samples that are easily disturbed, like powders.

Laminar Flow Hood Features
Fully Equipped and Flexible
Get set up straight away with a complete system which includes all the useful components as standard. Plus, the flatpack design means you don't need to decide on a configuration before purchasing. Assemble as a horizontal or vertical laminar flow hood depending on your experimental requirements (or switch between them, if needed).
High Purity Air
Guarantee a clean air workspace with a H13 grade HEPA filter which captures over 99.99% of all airborne particulates. High air purity as low as ISO Class 5 is easily achieved and maintained using the smart air sensing technology.
Smart Air Sensing Technology
Receive live updates about the environment and filter saturation from the advanced air quality and pressure sensors. The smart air sensing technology ensures the motor is operating at an optimal speed, alerts you to upcoming filter changes, and warns you if the air flow changes.
Low Operating Costs
Keep energy usage to a minimum and reduce your operating costs. The laminar flow hood is equipped with low energy lighting, infrared motion sensors for running in standby mode, a UV LED with variable timer settings, and back pressure sensing to monitor HEPA filter saturation.
