FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Laboratory valves are shut-off fittings for water and technical gases, compliant with international safety standards.

See also: all offer categories.

The valves handle water, flammable and non flammable gases, and vacuum.

They are mounted on the worktop, the frame or the wall. The colour coding of the media follows laboratory standards, and the gas valves carry a three zone marking to EN 13792.

They differ in the marking of the medium and in the sealing materials chosen for the particular gas.

Oxygen fittings take only oxygen compatible grease, because hydrocarbon or silicone grease risks auto ignition. Leak tests on gas lines are done by a licensed technician at least once a year.

A floor plan or the room dimensions, a list of workstations and details of the services are all we need to prepare a quote.

The layout and the visualisation are ready before the quote, so it is clear what you are paying for. The office works Monday to Friday, 7:00 to 15:00.

    Fume hoods and ventilation

    Do all laboratory fume hoods provide the same level of safety? Key parameters worth paying attention to

    Choch most fume cupboards on the market look similar, their effectiveness in protecting the operator varies drastically. An aesthetic casing can be misleading and does not reflect the precision of the systems responsible for retaining toxic gases. Real safety is determined solely by the internal airflow architecture and engineering details. When choosing a device, technical parameters should be analyzed rather than visual design. Full protection is guaranteed only by a workstation where modern laboratory furniture interacts closely with the ventilation system. The LabAirTec model by Renggli proves that the key to success lies in advanced airflow research and certified solutions.

    Laboratory fume hood - how to choose the right model for the type of research and applicable standards?

    Choosing the right laboratory fume hood is one of the most important decisions when designing and equipping a modern research space. This device not only serves as a central point for protecting personnel from harmful vapors, but it is also crucial for maintaining the reproducibility of results and the purity of the analyses themselves. For a chemical fume hood to perform its task flawlessly, its specification must precisely match the profile of the research being conducted, the specifics of the reagents used, and the rigorous criteria of international safety standards.

    How to choose and design valves for demineralized water?

    Dedicated laboratory fittings for pure water prevent secondary contamination of the medium. Standard laboratory installations can release minerals, making chemically inert components necessary. A properly selected deck-mounted laboratory faucet made of PP eliminates this risk, protecting samples. What to avoid when choosing fittings for demineralized water? Above all, random sanitary components. Appropriate laboratory equipment protects the investor from losses, which is why it is worth relying on professional B2B advisory. The lack of minerals makes water destructive to traditional metals.
