asecos K-UB-90 combination safety cabinet, 110 cm, drawer and hinged door
The asecos K-UB-90 combination safety cabinet, 110 cm, with drawer and hinged door, is indispensable for professionals in laboratory and research environments when it comes to the safe storage of hazardous substances, flammable liquids and gas cylinders. The model is characterised by its versatile design and high fire resistance, offering significantly higher protection than many other safety cabinets. With its robust construction, reliable fire protection properties and flexible interior fittings, it meets a wide range of requirements in chemical, biological and medical facilities. Well-thought-out design features and functions
This model is designed to meet a wide range of storage needs. The design allows for clear separation of substances and provides sufficient space to safely store both chemicals and sensitive media. The front section of the cabinet consists of a sturdy drawer on the left and a hinged door on the right, ensuring separate storage and easy access.
Its exceptional fire resistance of 90 minutes - confirmed by recognised test criteria - contributes significantly to the protection of people and work areas. In addition, air supply and exhaust routes are secured by valves with fusible links, while heat-resistant seals prevent the uncontrolled escape of hazardous gases or vapours. Last but not least, this model impresses with its high load capacity and versatile interior design, which can be expanded with shelves and pull-outs as required.
Technical features at a glance
- Fire resistance 90 minutes (certified according to DIN EN 14470-1)
- Reliable door and drawer construction with robust fire protection insulation
- External body dimensions: 1100 x 500 x 600 mm (W x D x H)
- Divisible interior: 470 x 450 x 500 mm on the left and right
- Integrated exhaust air connection (NW 75 mm) with low pressure difference (< 1 Pa)
- Resilient design with a maximum load capacity of 300 kg
- Flexible interior design: usable adjustment heights prepared for pull-outs and shelves
This enables both the easy storage of larger containers and smaller hazardous material containers. At the same time, the low air volume (1.0 m³/h) in 10-fold recirculation mode ensures the desired ventilation without affecting the temperature stability in the cabinet.
In addition to protection against the effects of fire, the daily handling aspects have also been carefully thought out. The drawer section allows frequently used chemicals to be removed quickly, while the hinged door provides sufficient storage space and easily accommodates several levels for hazardous substance packaging of different sizes.

- Company workshops or industrial plants where flammable solvents and gas cylinders are used
The focus is on the safe storage of critical hazardous substances and optimal organisation to prevent accidents and contamination.
FAQs
How is the cabinet ventilated?
The cabinet has an exhaust air connection (NW 75 mm). In combination with the fuse on the supply and exhaust air valves, ventilation remains stable and at the same time prevents flames from entering in the event of a fire.
What options does the interior offer?
The interior can be flexibly designed: shelves and pull-out shelves can be combined as desired to accommodate containers or gas cylinders of different sizes. This simplifies the safe separation of different substances.
Is the storage of gas cylinders permitted?
Yes, the cabinet is designed and ventilated for the storage of standard gas cylinders. The robust construction and integrated safety valves minimise the risk of uncontrolled gas leaks.
Which certifications are particularly relevant?
It complies with the requirements of DIN EN 14470-1 and DIN EN 14727, has a CE mark and was specially designed for the storage of flammable liquids and other hazardous substances.
Conclusion
The cabinet offers a well-thought-out combination of safe storage, high load capacity and optimum fire protection for a wide range of hazardous substances. Its flexible interior design, 90-minute fire resistance and certified safety components make it equally attractive for laboratory and industrial applications. At the same time, supply and exhaust air valves with fusible links and robust seals ensure a controlled atmosphere inside. Anyone who values maximum safety and needs efficient storage for a variety of substances will find this model to be a completely reliable solution.
