[3dem] plasma cleaner question

[Morgan, David Gene]

Hi,

This is for any of you who have a plasma cleaner.  What have you done about venting the "exhaust gases" from the device?

We are moving our Fischione plasma cleaner into a new area sample prep area.  In the old location, we were able to connect the exit port of the cleaner directly into the exhaust snorkel where a fume hood was once connected.  In our new location, that will either be impossible or will require a connection that spans many meters and passes through multiple walls.

I am wondering how necessary people think it is to vent directly into some sort of building exhaust system.  Any thoughts?

As always, thanks in advance for your comments and ideas.
