Overview

In an era where the safety and effectiveness of ventilated enclosures are paramount, the traditional methods of testing and validation are being outpaced by the complexity of new designs and the specialized requirements of modern laboratories. The ASHRAE 110 standard has long been the cornerstone of fume hood performance testing, focusing primarily on face velocity measurements. While this has served its purpose, the evolving landscape of ventilated enclosures demands a more nuanced, detailed, and actionable approach to testing.

Introducing Tri-Color Testing – a groundbreaking methodology that transcends the limitations of traditional face velocity tests by offering a highly visual and dynamic containment testing process. Designed for modern laboratories, Tri-Color Testing is not only more meaningful but also straightforward and affordable.

Workshop Highlights:
 

• The Tri-Color Concept: Dive deep into the foundations of Tri-Color Testing, understand its genesis, and how it builds upon and expands the principles of ASHRAE 110. Learn about the unique visual cues that make this method superior in assessing the effectiveness of fume hoods and other ventilated enclosures.

• Beyond Traditional Testing: Discover how Tri-Color Testing offers a more comprehensive analysis of containment performance, especially in special situations involving unusual hoods or ventilated enclosures that do not conform to standard designs.

• Dynamic Containment Testing Demystified: Engage with the concept of dynamic testing and how Tri-Color Testing provides a vivid, intuitive understanding of airflow patterns, leakage, and containment under real-world conditions.

• Actionable Insights: It's not just about testing; it's about what you do with the results. Learn how to interpret the outcomes of Tri-Color Testing in a way that informs safety protocols, design improvements, and compliance strategies.

• Hands-On Experience: Participate in live demonstrations and hands-on sessions led by experts in the field. Witness firsthand the simplicity and effectiveness of Tri-Color Testing on a variety of ventilated enclosures.

• Networking and Discussion: Connect with professionals, enthusiasts, and experts in the field. Share experiences, discuss challenges, and explore innovative solutions in the realm of laboratory safety and containment testing.
