asecos S-PHOENIX Vol. 2-90 safety cabinet, 60 cm, left-hand door hinge

The asecos S-PHOENIX Vol. 2-90 safety cabinet, 60 cm, left-hand door hinge, is used in laboratories and medical facilities to store hazardous substances safely. It impresses with its robust construction, certified fire resistance and numerous protective mechanisms. This model outperforms many other solutions on the market and meets the highest standards of safety and quality.

Detailed expertise for maximum safety

This cabinet solution is specially designed to store flammable liquids, gases and chemicals in accordance with the relevant standards. A key advantage is its 90-minute fire resistance in accordance with DIN EN 14470-1. Thanks to this feature, hazardous substances remain protected for a sufficiently long time even in the event of a fire, ensuring the safety and structural integrity of the cabinet contents.

The tightness and fire resistance are further enhanced by high-quality fire protection insulation and secure door seals. Optimised exhaust air flow via integrated valves also minimises the escape of hazardous vapours and ensures a constant supply of fresh air. This makes the cabinet suitable not only for traditional chemical laboratories, but also for numerous industrial and medical applications.

Key design and performance features

After thorough testing and comparison with the manufacturer's specifications, the most important technical data can be summarised as follows:

- Fire resistance: 90 minutes in accordance with DIN EN 14470-1
- External dimensions (W x D x H): 600 x 615 x 1968 mm
- Empty weight: 255 kg
- Integrated exhaust air connection (NW): 75 mm
- Air volume 10 times: 4.1 m³/h
- Maximum load capacity: 600 kg
- Secure door seals and fusible links: prevent toxic vapours from escaping

Further design details include a sturdy door mechanism, folding doors for space-saving use and a floor drip tray to catch any spilled liquids. This means that substances such as acids, bases or highly flammable solvents can also be stored in the cabinet. For even greater ease of use, a transport base is available as an option so that the total weight can be moved efficiently.

Relevant certifications and standards

The model has been developed to comply with all European standards and guidelines for the safe storage of hazardous substances. In particular, the CE mark confirms compliance with important EU requirements, while DIN EN 14470-1 regulates fire resistance. A comprehensive range of tests has also been carried out with regard to load and stability. This ensures that specialists from laboratories and research facilities, testing laboratories or production departments can store materials in a compliant, controlled and certified manner. Areas of application in laboratory and industrial environments The cabinet is used in all work areas where potentially hazardous substances are present. Typical applications include: - Storage of flammable solvents such as ethanol or acetone. - Storage of various acids and bases, such as hydrochloric acid or potash lye. - Storage of pressurised containers such as gas cylinders (e.g. for mixed gases containing argon). - Temporary storage of highly volatile substances for chemical analysis. In addition, this safety cabinet is used in research facilities, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies to protect employees and premises from hazards and to comply with legal requirements.

Frequently asked questions

How does the ventilation in the cabinet work?

The integrated valves ensure active supply and exhaust air flow. At elevated temperatures, fuses melt, automatically blocking the exchange of vapour and air, thereby preventing the escape of toxic gases or smoke gases.

What fittings are included inside?

The cabinet offers a combination of shelves, storage shelves and perforated metal shelves, as well as a drip tray. Some elements are optional and can be individually configured as required to accommodate different sizes of containers, bottles and tanks.

Can the cabinet be transported when loaded?

For safety reasons, it is recommended that the cabinet be emptied before transport to prevent damage or accidents. However, an optional transport base is available to facilitate movement of the cabinet and allow it to be moved freely with a pallet truck.

What is the maximum load capacity per shelf?

Depending on the selected shelf design, a high load capacity of up to 600 kg per shelf can be achieved. Additional information on this can be found in the manufacturer's information, which is kept up to date.
