Acid-base storage cabinets are special cabinets designed for the safe storage of chemical substances. These cabinets are used especially for the storage of corrosive, hazardous chemicals such as acids and bases and must have features that comply with safety standards. Here are their general features:
1. Material
• Chemical-resistant material: Made of chemical-resistant materials such as polypropylene (PP) or stainless steel.
• Corrosion resistance: Especially resistant to acid vapors.
2. Ventilation System
• Natural or mechanical ventilation: There are ventilation holes or systems to exhaust the vapors of chemicals.
• Exhaust connection point: Can be connected to external ventilation systems to protect the ambient air.
3. Sealing
• Sealed gasket: Covers are usually sealed to prevent chemical vapors from leaking out.
• Liquid collection basin: There is a leak-proof tray or basin at the bottom to collect chemical spills.
4. Cover and Locking Systems
• Lockable covers: There is a locking mechanism to prevent unauthorized access.
• Fire-resistant feature: Covers or cabinets that provide fire resistance can also be preferred.
5. Dimensions and Shelf System
• Adjustable shelves: Shelf heights can be adjusted to store chemical containers of different sizes.
• Capacity: Storage capacity varies according to need, offering options from small laboratories to large storage areas.
6. Safety Standards
• Labeling: Appropriate warning signs (e.g. "Corrosive", "Non-flammable") must be present for hazardous chemicals.
• Compliance with standards: Must comply with international safety standards such as CE, EN 14470-1 or OSHA. (In fire-resistant versions)
7. Additional Features
• Resistance to ignition sources: Thermal insulation or safety measures against explosion risk.
• Portability: Lightweight and easily portable models are also available.
