One of the leading causes of industrial fires is the improper storage and handling of flammable liquids. It is important to identify and inventory all chemicals in your workplace. Review the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for each chemical to determine characteristics and recommended storage practices.
To avoid generating toxic gases and to prevent fires and explosions, it is important to segregate incompatible chemicals. Some local regulations require positive pressure ventilation. Sysbel cabinets offer fire-baffle protected vents toconnect to these systems.
If the chemical being stored is flammable or combustible, OSHA 1910.106 applies.Your state and local codes, in all probability, are based on either the National Fire Protection Association Code (NFPA 30) and/or the Uniform Fire Code (UFC 79). Section 4.3 of the 2000 edition of NFPA covers the design, construction, and capacity of storage cabinets.
In addition to passing a fire test, NFPA further requires specific cabinet construction. Whereas both metal and wood construction are acceptable, the most popular choice in industry is metal.
A wide variety of code compliant cabinets are available in sizes ranging from 4-gallons (15 liters) to 120-gallons (454 liters).
Smaller cabinets allow solvents to be stored at worksite locations saving costly trips to a central storage room. Undercounter, wall mount and piggyback style cabinets add to safe storage, even when space is at a premium. For high capacity storage, including storage of 55-gallon drums, larger sized cabinets designed specifically to house 30-gallon (114 liter) or 55-gallon (208 liter) drums are available. It's important to note that OSHA Code 29 CFR 1910.106 states that not more than 60-gallons may be Class I and II liquids. Custom sized cabinets are also available for unique requirements.
Sysbel also offers an extensive color selection including yellow, red, blue, green, white, gray and a variety of neutrals.
