Vertical Laminar Flow Hood for Consistent Air Flow
A clean, contaminant-free environment for conducting sensitive experiments with ease and comfort
Overview | Specifications | Features | Gallery | In the Box | Accessories | Resources and Support
The Ossila Vertical Laminar Flow Hood provides a simple-to-use, clean air working environment. Ideal for samples that are easily disturbed, like powders, the high purity vertical air flow reduces material cross contamination.
Built to accommodate bulky equipment, such as a spin coater or a UV ozone cleaner, it is suitable for a wide range of sensitive experiments. The interchangeable design lets you switch between horizontal and vertical setups. This flexibility ensures you have the best configuration for your working requirements.
Unlike other models, our laminar flow hoods come fully equipped with a pre-filter and HEPA filter, sensors, control electronics, and tray. Plus, the built-in UV light helps to maintain the cleanliness of the system.

Vertical Laminar Flow Hood Features
High Purity Air
The H13 grade HEPA filters capture over 99.99% of all airborne particulates. High air purity is easily achieved and maintained, with ISO classifications as low as ISO Class 5, using our smart air sensing technology.
Low Operating Costs
Equipped with low energy lighting, infrared motion sensors for running in standby mode, UV LED with variable timer settings, and back pressure sensing to monitor HEPA filter saturation. Together, these features keep energy usage to a minimum and reduce operating costs.
Smart Air Sensing Technology
A range of sensors monitor air quality and pressure to provide live updates about the environment and filter saturation. The smart technology allows the motor to operate at an optimal speed, alert you to upcoming filter changes, and warn you if the air flow changes.
Fully Equipped
Unlike other manufacturers, our vertical laminar flow hood is offered with all the useful components as standard. The price you see is the price you pay for a fully operational laminar flow hood. There are no hidden costs or charges before you have a working system.

Why Choose a Vertical Laminar Flow Hood?
Improved User Protection and Comfort
The air flow within the vertical laminar flow hood is directed towards the floor of the workspace, not the user. This is particularly useful if you are working with substances, such as powders, which can cause irritation.
Accommodates Bulky Equipment
The vertical air flow also enables you to work with larger equipment without interrupting the stability of the laminar flow. This orientation allows maximum adaptability to your experiments without compromising the clean air environment.
Low Levels of Cross Contamination
In the horizontal orientation, contaminants are swept across the work surface, risking contamination of your other samples. Yet in the vertical orientation, contaminating particles are partially trapped at the workspace floor, reducing material cross contamination.
Vertical vs Horizontal Laminar Flow Hood
The difference between a vertical and horizontal laminar flow hood is the direction of air flow through the workspace.
