Compact lab exhaust blower
Mixed-flow high-plume dilution blower is a self-contained exhaust system for institutional and industrial laboratories. The Vektor MD features a discharge nozzle that entrains additional ambient air to mix with the potentially hazardous exhaust fumes. The additional air dilutes the lab effluent and increases the discharge flow and velocity, displacing the exhaust high above the roof and away from building makeup air systems—without the need for unsightly exhaust stacks.

Where do they put all those lumens?
Being smaller than even incandescent alternatives makes new screw-in T2 Spiral compact fluorescent lights from GE a big deal. They are the industry's smallest T2 CFLs—available exclusively from GE and offered in 10-, 13-, and 15-watt versions.
T2 Spiral CFLs produce 870 lumens and compare favorably with both GE's 13-watt T3 (825 lumens) and 60-watt incandescent equivalent (840 lumens) that some hotels are still using. GE Consumer & Industrial Input No. 250 at BDCnetwork.com/quickResponse
