Used AirClean Systems Shop & Facility Equipment for Sale

Who they areAirClean Systems is an American manufacturer of ductless fume hoods, chemical workstations, laminar flow hoods and containment enclosures. The company was founded in 1992 and moved its corporate headquarters and manufacturing into a facility in Creedmoor, North Carolina, which its own site describes as a 162,000 square-foot plant with in-house electronic and mechanical design, CNC machining and electronics departments. Its products are aimed at protecting the operator, the process, or both from toxic vapors, fumes, gases and particulate.

What they are known forThe core of the line is ductless containment: ductless fume hoods, polypropylene hoods with folding or sliding sash, total exhaust hoods, laminar flow workstations and clean benches, biological safety cabinets, powder containment enclosures, PCR workstations and forensic drying or fuming cabinets. AirClean states it introduced microprocessor controls into ductless hoods in 1995, brought a bonded carbon filter to the laboratory fume hood market in 1996, and made airflow sensors and gas detection standard on its ductless hoods in 1997. Its ductless units use gas-phase bonded carbon filtration with a microprocessor-based safety controller that monitors airflow and filter condition and alerts the operator when a filter is saturated.

Model series buyers search forCommonly referenced series and product families include the AC600 Series ductless chemical workstations, the Endeavour and Independence ductless fume hoods, the Polypropylene ductless hoods, the PowderSafe enclosures, the ProtectAire Class II A2 biological safety cabinet, the DuraMax HEPA-filtered vertical laminar flow hood, the ChemSafe filtered chemical storage cabinet, the DrySafe evidence drying cabinets and the CyanoSafe fuming chambers. Because the range is broad and names overlap between generations, confirm the exact model and configuration from the unit's data plate rather than from the listing title alone.

What to check when buying usedOn a used AirClean hood or enclosure, the first item is the filter: bonded carbon filters and HEPA filters are consumable, so ask when they were last changed and whether the unit was used with chemicals that saturate or degrade the media. Next, verify the microprocessor controller and airflow sensor work and that no saturation or airflow alarm is latched, and check the sash, gaskets, seals and work surface for chemical attack or cracking, especially on polypropylene units. Look at the blower and motor for noise, vibration and run hours, and inspect the interior for residue from the previous application — a hood used for powders, solvents or biological work may need decontamination before reuse.

Service, parts and supportAirClean Systems still manufactures and supports this equipment from Creedmoor, North Carolina, and states that every product is tested in house against applicable safety standards. Replacement filters, controllers and accessories are the practical questions to settle before purchase: confirm the model number, the filter type the unit takes and whether spares are still offered for that generation. If the hood is being installed in a regulated laboratory environment, check that the unit can still be certified for the airflow and containment performance your application requires.
