Ventilation: Fume Hoods Self-Study Course # 48002
- Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
This course presents an overview of the requirements and safe work practices for the use of engineered ventilation controls (EVCs) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). EVCs addressed in this manual include fume hoods, local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems other than fume hoods, portable and in-place high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration systems. Requirements from LANL Procedure P101-16, Industrial Ventilation (non-HVACR) that address EVC certification and use, along with responsibilities of workers who use EVCs and the responsible line managers (RLMs) of such workers, are also presented. Per 101-16, 6.1, workers who use, maintain, or certify (i.e., inspect and test) fume hoods, or Persons in Charge (PICs) who oversee others in those tasks, must complete this course.
