asecos UB-T-90 safety base cabinet, 59 cm, depth 50 cm, right-hand door hinge
The asecos safety base cabinet has been specially developed for use in laboratories and research facilities to safely store flammable, corrosive or other hazardous substances. With a width of 59 cm and a depth of 50 cm, this robust cabinet can be integrated under work surfaces or laboratory tables to save space. Compared to similar solutions on the market, it impresses with its high-strength materials, a tested fire resistance of 90 minutes and extensive equipment options for efficient, safe and organised storage.
Features and benefits
This under-bench cabinet is designed for durability and meets the highest safety requirements. Its compact design means it can be used even in confined spaces. The door is hinged on the right, which allows for versatile installation and ensures optimal access to the contents. In addition, the design offers the following features:
- Fire resistance for 90 minutes: ideal for storing chemicals and flammable substances. - External dimensions of 590 x 500 x 600 mm and internal dimensions of 470 x 380 x 500 mm: sufficient space for the safe storage of a wide variety of containers.
- Exhaust air connection with a diameter of 75 mm (NW 75): enables connection to an external exhaust air system to effectively remove vapours.
- Low pressure loss of less than 1 Pa in the cabinet: reduces the risk of unwanted overpressure or underpressure in sensitive work areas.
- Load capacity up to 300 kg: also suitable for storing heavy containers or multiple containers.
- Well-designed interior: floor drip tray, pull-out tray and perforated plate insert ensure leak-proof, durable and well-ventilated storage. - Empty weight of 115 kg: robust design and high-quality steel body ensure stability and accident protection.
In addition, the pull-out tray provides optimum access to stored substances. The perforated plate insert allows air to circulate inside the cabinet to minimise vapours and odours and increase safety. The combination of exhaust air connection and ventilation system is a decisive advantage, especially for sensitive or reactive substances.
Certifications and standards
The asecos UB-T-90 safety base cabinet, 59 cm, depth 50 cm, right-hand door hinge, meets all requirements of European standards for the reliable storage of hazardous substances. These include:
- DIN EN 14470-1: Standard for safety cabinets for the storage of flammable liquids in laboratories.
- DIN EN 14727: Standard for laboratory furniture, which defines the requirements for design and safety.
- CE marking: confirms that all essential requirements of the relevant EU directives are met.
These specifications guarantee that the cabinet has undergone all necessary tests and inspections and is therefore approved for professional use in demanding working environments.
Application examples
Thanks to its high safety standards, this model is suitable for almost all areas that require the storage of hazardous or flammable substances. Typical locations include:
- Chemical laboratories: storage of acids, solvents and other potentially flammable substances.
- Medical facilities: storage of medicines or disinfectants that require increased caution due to their composition.
- Research facilities: Storage of samples, reagents or laboratory chemicals with safe fire protection and optimal ventilation.
- Industry and workshops: Storage of lubricants and adhesives as well as other hazardous substances used in the production process.
The sturdy floor collection tray prevents liquids from escaping, for example in the event of leaks of particularly reactive substances such as hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid and flammable solvents. The pull-out tray makes it easier to handle containers and also reduces the risk of spillage.
FAQs
How can the cabinet be installed correctly?
It is placed directly under a worktop or laboratory table. The door hinge on the right-hand side allows it to be integrated perfectly into different room situations.
What types of substances can be stored safely?
The cabinet is primarily suitable for flammable liquids, acids, bases and other chemicals. Highly irritant or toxic substances can also be stored safely when used properly.
How does the ventilation work?
Continuous ventilation is ensured thanks to the front exhaust air connection, integrated perforated plates and pull-out modules. A 75 mm exhaust air connection allows connection to a central exhaust system so that potentially hazardous vapours do not remain in the room.
What happens in the event of a fire?
With a fire resistance of 90 minutes in accordance with DIN EN 14470-1, the base cabinet can protect its contents for a defined period of time in the event of a fire. This significantly reduces the risk of flammable substances feeding the fire.
Are there any specifications for load capacity?
The maximum load capacity is 300 kg, so that both heavy containers and large quantities of various containers can be stored safely without compromising stability.
Conclusion
With the asecos UB-T-90 safety base cabinet, laboratory managers, researchers and industrial users benefit from a reliable solution for the legally compliant storage of critical substances. Its robust materials, practical interior fittings and tested fire resistance comply with all standards for maximum safety. This cabinet is therefore a well-designed, space-saving and future-proof investment that significantly increases safety and efficiency in everyday laboratory work.
