Description
Combustible Liquid Safe Storage Cabinets are purpose-built, highly regulated storage units specifically designed to safely contain and isolate flammable and combustible liquids. Their primary function is to protect these hazardous materials from external fire sources, contain potential leaks, and reduce the risk of fire or explosion in industrial, commercial, and laboratory settings. They are a cornerstone of fire prevention and safety compliance.
Features:
- Fire-Resistant Construction:Constructed from heavy-gauge steel (typically 18-gauge or thicker) and feature double-wall steel construction with a 1-1/2 inch (38m) insulating air space between the walls. This design provides a crucial thermal barrier to protect the contents from external heat, meeting established fire safety standards
- Self-Closing, Fusible-Link Doors: are typically fitted with fusible links that melt at a specific elevated temperature This mechanism automatically releases and closes the doors in the event of a fire, containing the fire hazard within the cabinets.
- Dual Flame-Arresting Vents: Includes dual vents on the exterior, equipped with flame arresters (usually fine-mesh screen or perforated metal). These vents prevent flames from entering or exiting the cabinet while allowing for connection to an external exhaust system to vent hazardous vapors.
- Secure Locking Mechanism: Fitted with a key lock to prevent unauthorized access, heft, or misuse of dangerous and often valuable flammable liquids.
- Adjustable Shelving: Includes adjustable, perforated steel shelves that allow for organized storage of various container sizes. Perforated designs promote airflow and aid in spill containment if liquids leak through.
