Hoods are manufactured depending on their real use (wall-mounted or placed in the middle of the room) and can be split into the following groups :

	V-series hoods with no filters
	F-series hoods with filters
	DP-series, double-wall hoods with no filters
	CV-series compensation hoods with no filters
	CF-series compensation hoods with filters

Possible filtration systems

	mechanic filtration with micro-stretched, corrugated, aluminium- or steel-made nets
	stainless steel labyrinth-type inertial filtration
	inertial and mechanic combined system + highly effective air filter + deodorising filter*

 

The steam-detection plenum manufacture is made with AISI 304 inox metal sheet (glazed and externally protected), 0.8 mm thick, electrically spot-welded.

Other materials and thicknesses on demand.

 

Their special shape not only improves the look but has also been conceived to make vapours detection as easy as possible, thanks to the double slanting plane ensuring a Venturi effect to the hood base.

 

When manufacturing the hood, we try to keep the number of negative angles as low as possible to ensure a better cleaning and hygiene level.

 

The upper part of the hood has one or two holes depending on the capacity, together with the relevant flange to make the coupling to the discharge piping easier.

 

The base is equipped with an outer condensation collection channel.

ACCESSORIES :

condensation discharge : diameter 3/8 grease collection basin

ladle-hanger aluminium-made calibration gates

 

 

USE

 

Hoods without filters

These hoods are especially suitable for those sectors where it is not necessary to filter the vapours produced by the underlying equipment, such as water steam, etc. and that do not abide by the parameters imposed by the recently-approved anti-pollution laws.

However, it is possible to use them by installing an appropriate filtering system onto the connection channel.

 

Hoods with filters

They are mainly used in the restaurants’, canteens’ and barracks’ kitchens, etc., where the vapours to be discharged contain high quantities of fats, easily detectable by the mechanic-type filters.

 

Double-wall hoods

These hoods are never equipped with their own filtration system ; if required, it has to be installed downstream along the discharge channel.

They are especially used when it is necessary to install the hood at more than 220 cm from the floor or to avoid to install it too far from the polluting point.

The suction all around the hood offers the following benefit, i.e. the capacities are lower if compared to the traditional hoods, thus also preventing awkward air flows from bothering operators.

 

Compensation hoods

Their operation and installation are similar to the aforementioned V- and F-series hoods, the difference being that during manufacturing we provide an external channel with gates and openings in order to feed air in the room, thus saving much energy and improving the aesthetic appearance of the hood if compared with the traditional plants.
