Carbon filters have pre-determined retention capabilities. Your supplier should be able to predict the chemical volume in grams or milliliters that can be retained by the filter prior to any measureable desorption taking place.

The below chemical listing provides the user with filter recommendations to help ensure the safe use of a ductless fume hood equipped with activated carbon filters. Enter the chemical name used in your application to find the recommended filter.

The list is developed as a guideline to assist in the safe operation of ductless fume hoods and the control of health hazards. Actual values achieved may vary based on environmental and operational conditions.
