asecos SL-CLASSIC-UB acid and alkali base cabinet, 110 cm
The asecos acid and alkali base cabinet has been specially developed for professional use in laboratories, research facilities and healthcare settings. It is designed for the safe storage of numerous hazardous substances, including corrosive acids and alkalis. Compared to other safety cabinets, this model offers the advantage of a well-thought-out design in a compact form, making the best possible use of the available space. At the same time, it impresses with its high resistance and practical protection for users and the environment.
Features and advantages
The robust housing is designed to reliably isolate aggressive chemicals. Due to its design, the cabinet is suitable for a wide range of requirements in the field of hazardous substance storage. This provides users with a variety of applications for safely storing different substances and complying with legal requirements. In addition, the integrated exhaust air connection (NW 75 mm) ensures the safe removal of vapours and gases.
- Compact dimensions: 1100 x 570 x 600 mm (external dimensions) - Separate interior compartments: 2 x 485 x 550 x 530 mm (internal dimensions) - Drip tray and pull-out shelf to minimise the risk of leakage
- Exhaust air connection (NW 75 mm) for efficient ventilation
- Air volume 30 times: 9 m³/h, pressure loss in the cabinet: 10 Pa
- Sturdy hinged doors with secure locking mechanism
- Empty weight of 55 kg for easy installation
The drip tray and pull-out shelf make it easier to organise containers with hazardous substances. This is particularly important when different chemicals need to be stored at the same time. The solid cabinet construction prevents the risk of cross-contamination and increases the protection of personnel and the laboratory environment.
The housing and doors are designed to withstand daily use in demanding work areas. The hinged doors can be securely locked to prevent unauthorised access. This ensures maximum safety, for example when storing highly reactive acids such as sulphuric acid or corrosive bases such as sodium hydroxide.
Please note that the base cabinet is supplied without interior fittings. This allows laboratory managers to customise the interior to their requirements and integrate additional shelves or compartment inserts as needed. To ensure trouble-free operation, regular maintenance of the exhaust air function is recommended, which contributes to a safe working environment.
Certifications and standards
The model meets the requirements of important guidelines for chemical storage and laboratory safety. The design, which complies with DIN EN 14470-1, ensures protection during the storage of flammable liquids, while DIN EN 14727 ensures that the cabinet also meets the highest safety requirements as laboratory furniture. This makes it ideal for all areas of application where a tested and reliable storage solution is required.
Application examples
The versatility of this model is evident in its numerous possible uses. Whether in university chemical laboratories or pharmaceutical facilities, compliance with safety standards is mandatory everywhere. This base cabinet is suitable for, among other things:
- Storage of acids and alkalis, for example sulphuric acid and sodium hydroxide - Storage of solvents such as acetone or methanol - Long-term storage of aggressive reagents in research laboratories - Safe storage of medical substances in clinics or doctors' surgeries
FAQs
How is the exhaust air connected correctly?
To safely remove vapours and odours, we recommend connecting to an external exhaust air system. The designated exhaust air connection (NW 75 mm) enables efficient ventilation and extraction.
Is flexible interior fittings available?
The enclosure is supplied without interior fittings as standard. Users can freely select additional accessories, such as additional shelves or mounting systems, and integrate them as required.
What measures increase safety when handling corrosive substances?
It is important to always place corrosive substances separately in drip trays. Regular checks of the seals and adequate exhaust air ensure maximum protection.
Can flammable chemicals also be stored?
The cabinet complies with standards that apply, among other things, to the storage of flammable liquids. However, individual specifications regarding storage and fire protection must always be observed.
Conclusion
With its well-thought-out design, tested safety standards and flexible equipment, this under-bench cabinet offers a reliable and efficient solution for acids, alkalis and other hazardous substances. Specialists in laboratories, healthcare facilities and research institutions benefit in particular from the robust construction and optimum protection against uncontrolled reactions or vapours. This makes the model a future-proof investment that fully complies with both legal requirements and safety standards.
