12 – Gallon Yellow Laboratory Explosion – Proof Safety Cabinet – The Preferred Choice for Safe Storage of Hazardous Chemicals
. Applicable Scenarios – The “Safety Guardian” for Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories
Focusing on the storage scenarios of hazardous chemicals in various laboratories, it precisely safeguards the safe storage of small – batch hazardous chemicals:
Research Laboratories: In scientific research scenarios such as material development and small – scale experiments, there is often a need to store small amounts of flammable solvents (such as ethanol, acetone) and combustible reagents (such as kerosene). The 12 – gallon small – capacity safety cabinet can be flexibly placed next to the experimental bench or in a corner to store these hazardous chemicals in classification. It prevents fires or explosions caused by reagent mixing and leakage, providing safety guarantees for the small – scale experimental stage of scientific research.
Teaching Laboratories: In the chemistry teaching laboratories of colleges, universities, and vocational schools, students’ experiments involve the use of a variety of hazardous chemicals, and the single – time dosage is small. The yellow safety cabinet can be used as a supporting safety storage device for teaching to store flammable and combustible chemicals (such as gasoline for combustion experiments) used in experiments. The striking color constantly reminds students to pay attention to safety, and at the same time, it standardizes the storage of chemicals, facilitating the safe conduct of teaching experiments.
Quality Inspection Laboratories: When conducting small – batch quality inspection and component analysis of products, a small amount of hazardous chemicals (such as flammable standard solvent) are used. This safety cabinet can be stored near the quality inspection operation area for easy access. Moreover, through its explosion – proof and leakage – proof design, it ensures that these hazardous chemicals do not leak during storage and do not cause safety accidents, guaranteeing the smooth progress of quality inspection work.
II. Core Advantages – Three – Fold Protection of Warning, Explosion – Proof, and Leakage – Proof
(I) Eye – Catching Yellow for Safety Warning
The cabinet body adopts a striking yellow design, which is very prominent in the laboratory environment. Yellow, as an internationally recognized safety warning color, can attract the attention of laboratory personnel at the first time, constantly reminding that “hazardous chemicals are stored here, and operations need to be cautious”, strengthening the safety awareness of laboratory personnel, and reducing safety risks caused by negligence at the visual level.
(II) High – Quality Steel for Explosion and Fire Prevention
Cabinet Material: High – strength high – quality steel plates are selected and processed into shape with precision. The thickness and strength of the steel plates have been strictly tested, featuring excellent impact resistance and deformation resistance, and can withstand a certain external impact to prevent chemical leakage caused by cabinet damage.
Fire – and – Explosion – Proof Structure: A professional fire – and – heat – insulating layer is configured inside. When the laboratory encounters dangerous situations such as open fire and high temperature, it can effectively block the transfer of flames and heat, delaying the spread of fire to the inside of the safety cabinet, and preventing the hazardous chemicals inside the cabinet from being ignited and exploded. It buys time for the evacuation of laboratory personnel and emergency treatment, greatly improving the safety of hazardous chemical storage.
(III) Precision Design for Leakage Prevention and Risk Control
Leakage – Proof Trough: An integrated leakage – proof trough is set at the bottom of the safety cabinet. In case of chemical container leakage, the liquid can flow into the trough, avoiding the spread of leaked substances to the laboratory floor, corroding equipment and polluting the environment. At the same time, it facilitates the subsequent centralized collection and treatment of leaked liquid, reducing safety hazards.
Sealed Cabinet Door: The cabinet door adopts a sealed design, equipped with high – quality sealing rubber strips and reliable locking devices. After closing the cabinet door, a good sealed environment can be formed, preventing the volatile gas of chemicals from leaking into the laboratory air, protecting laboratory personnel from harmful gas exposure, and also preventing the accumulation of flammable and explosive gases in the laboratory space from causing explosions.
III. Product Specifications and Details
(I) Compact Specifications for Flexible Adaptation
Capacity: 12 gallons (approximately 45.4L), suitable for storing small – batch hazardous chemicals, meeting the chemical reserve needs of daily small – dose experiments and tests in the laboratory. Compared with large – capacity safety cabinets, it saves more space and can be flexibly placed in corners, next to experimental benches, etc. in the laboratory, adapting to the space layout of different laboratories.
Overall Dimensions: [Length × Width × Height, to be supplemented according to actual conditions, e.g., approximately W430×D430×H890mm, etc.]. The compact size design does not occupy too much laboratory space, and at the same time, it ensures a reasonable storage hierarchy inside, facilitating the classified storage of different hazardous chemicals.
(II) Thoughtful Details for Practical Safety
Adjustable Shelves: Equipped with adjustable internal shelves. Laboratory personnel can flexibly adjust the position of the shelves according to the size and height of chemical containers, realizing the classified and layered storage of different hazardous chemicals such as flammable and combustible ones. It avoids dangerous reactions caused by the contact of different chemicals, making the storage more orderly and safe.
Anti – Static Treatment: The surface of the cabinet body is anti – static treated, effectively eliminating static accumulation. In the laboratory environment, static electricity may cause the combustion and explosion of flammable chemicals. This design reduces safety risks from the details and ensures the safety of the hazardous chemical storage process.
Clear Markings: In addition to the yellow warning appearance, the surface of the cabinet body is clearly marked with Chinese and English warning signs such as “Flammable” and “Hazardous Chemical Storage”, which complies with international general safety standards and laboratory management regulations, further strengthening the safety reminder and contributing to the compliant operation of the laboratory.
IV. Customization Services – Exclusive Small and Precise Safety Storage Solutions
Although it is a 12 – gallon small – capacity safety cabinet, flexible customization services are still provided to meet the personalized needs of the laboratory:
Color Enhancement: In addition to the standard warning yellow, according to the safety color management requirements or the overall style of the laboratory, different shades of the same color system (such as a deeper warning yellow) can be customized, or it can be matched with the colors of other safety equipment in the laboratory to achieve more precise visual warning and style unification.
Optimization of Internal Configuration: Special – material layered shelves (such as corrosion – resistant shelves for storing small amounts of strongly corrosive chemicals) can be customized, and separators can be added (to achieve more precise classified storage of small containers), so that the small – capacity safety cabinet can also adapt to the storage needs of special hazardous chemicals.
Customized Markings: Exclusive markings of the laboratory (such as the laboratory name, safety slogan) and special hazardous chemical warning signs (for specific hazardous chemicals commonly used in the laboratory) can be customized on the surface of the cabinet body, improving the recognition of the safety cabinet and the pertinence of safety management.
