Airone 1000RS Mobile Ductless Fume Cabinet for Schools & Colleges

The Airone 1000RS is a mobile ductless fume cabinet designed for science teaching environments in schools and colleges. It provides a flexible solution for practical chemistry demonstrations where a fixed ducted fume cupboard may not be suitable, practical or cost-effective.

With no requirement for external ductwork, the Airone 1000RS can be moved into position when required, connected to the Safelab Docking Station, and stored safely when not in use.

Need a mobile fume cupboard for a school or college science space?

Best suited for

The Airone 1000RS is best suited for schools and colleges that need a flexible fume cupboard for science teaching and classroom demonstrations.

It is particularly suitable for:

  • Secondary school science departments
  • Colleges and sixth forms
  • Chemistry classrooms
  • Practical demonstration areas
  • Prep rooms and shared teaching spaces
  • Sites where fixed ductwork would be difficult, disruptive or expensive
  • Schools that need a fume cupboard that can be moved between rooms

Product overview

The Airone 1000RS mobile ductless fume cupboard is a space-efficient and cost-effective teaching resource for school and college science departments. Once connected to the Safelab Docking Station, the cabinet can be positioned where it is needed for demonstrations, then stored in the classroom or elsewhere when not in use.

Because the Airone 1000RS is ductless, there is no requirement for external ducting or associated building works. This makes it a practical choice for education settings where flexibility, visibility and minimal disruption are important.

The design of the cabinet gives students a clear view of practical demonstrations from all sides, while the high-capacity carbon filter helps support safe use in suitable school chemistry applications.

Mobile ductless vs fixed ducted fume cabinbets

The right fume cabinet depends on how the space will be used. A mobile ductless fume cupboard is often suitable where flexibility and minimal building work are important. A fixed ducted fume cupboard may be more suitable for laboratories where regular practical work takes place in one dedicated location.
