Flammable Safety Cabinets, Type 90 – CM Line Models for Reliable Laboratory Protection
Flammable Safety Storage Cabinets, Type 90 from Labor Security Systems offer certified and dependable storage for flammable liquids and solids in South African laboratories. These TÜV Certified cabinets comply with EN 14470-1, EN 16121, EN 16122, and SANS 54470-1. They are tested to resist fire for up to 90 minutes, ensuring the highest level of protection.
Certified Safety with Built-In Ventilation
To ensure safe operation, each cabinet features a dual-valve natural ventilation system. This enables air exchange at least 10 times the cabinet’s volume per hour, significantly reducing the risk of gas buildup. Additionally, you can connect the system to an air suction motor and add a charcoal filter to capture harmful vapors—protecting lab personnel from exposure.
Intelligent Fire Response Systems
In a fire event, the cabinet activates multiple automatic systems to isolate its contents and prevent flame spread. These include:
- Doors that close automatically at 50 °C
- Safety valves that seal at 70 ± 10 °C
- Intumescent seals that expand to block heat and flames
- The Ignis-Lock system that secures the doors during emergencies
Together, these features help safeguard both staff and stored materials.
Robust Construction and Practical Design
CM line cabinets use eco-friendly insulation and are built for durability and fire resistance. Tall models like the AC 600 CM and AC 1200 CM offer capacities between 100 and 160 litres. Undercounter versions—AC 600/50 CM, AC 900/50 CM, and AC 1200/50 CM—store between 15 and 30 litres. Drawer-equipped options (CM D and CM DD) improve organization and access.
Each unit comes with tray-style shelves and a spill collection basin for added safety. Moreover, the palletized base (with cover) simplifies delivery and installation, making these cabinets suitable for both new builds and retrofits.
