Polyethylene safety Cabinet for Corrosives - Store Harsh Chemicals with Confidence

31 May 2018

Research environments using many different types of chemicals have special storage requirements. Whether using acids, bases or solvents, it is critical that incompatible liquids are segregated to avoid disastrous explosions or fire. The SDS (Safety Data Sheet) should be reviewed to determine chemical characteristics and recommended storage practices.

Never worry about corrosion while storing strong acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, or nitric acids; or bases such as sodium, potassium, or calcium hydroxide in Justrite’s new, metal-free polyethylene cabinet for corrosives. With a robust design constructed of chemical-resistant, high density polyethylene, it protects against damaging container leaks or vapors when storing harsh chemicals.

Versatile in any environment, the cabinet features a recessed kick-toe for improved ergonomics when used under a counter, or use for stand-alone storage and take advantage of top work surface. A spacious interior holds up to 36, 2.5-liter bottles and includes an adjustable shelf. Leakproof sump with a big 8.5-gal capacity features a removable sump cover for easy cleaning of spills, and serves as a bottom shelf for additional storage. For expanding storage needs, stack an additional cabinet on top without taking up additional floor space. Safely store strong acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, or nitric acid; or bases such as sodium, potassium, or calcium hydroxide in this durable, HDPE (high-density polyethylene) cabinet. With no metal parts to corrode, this cabinet holds up to 36, 2.5-liter (90L) bottles, and offers chemical resistance against spills or potential damaging vapors when storing acids or bases. The shelf adjusts on 3-inch (76-mm) increments, and has a load capacity of 125-lbs (57-kgs); choose from three positions to optimize container storage. A removable yet sturdy sump cover, which also serves as a bottom shelf, conceals the fully integrated, leakproof sump with an 8.5-gal (32-L) capacity. Recessed channels in shelf and base help direct spills to the back of the cabinet and down into the sump. Three application-specific labels identify contents to safely store and segregate incompatible chemicals — ACID, BASE, and CORROSIVE. Doors open nearly 180 degrees for easy access, engage firmly with the body when closed, and accept a padlock (not included) for added security.

Versatile in any environment, use the cabinet for stand-alone storage and take advantage of the grooved top work surface. The recessed toe-kick allows the user to stand closer to the counter for improved ergonomics. Easily expand capacity without taking up additional floor space by stacking two cabinets—top cabinet offers convenient eye-level access to contents. Four pre-formed vent locations at rear provide a guide for an aftermarket vent kit (not included) in the event the application requires a pressurized vapor removal system.
