Asecos cabinets for vastly superior protection over single or double wall steel cabinets to BS 476

Mar 19 2024

Asecos cabinets are designed and built to comply with BS EN 14470-1, and offer vastly superior protection over single or double wall steel cabinets to BS 476.

These cabinets minimise the risks associated with storing flammable substances by protecting the contents for a tested length of time. Consideration has been given to the time required not only for personnel to leave the area in the case of a fire, but also to emergency services response times.

Fire resistance is defined as the time taken for the temperature inside a cabinet to increase by 180K at any measured internal point. As a result, each cabinet is classified as Type 30 or Type 90. During the design process, all cabinets offered by Asecos have been fully tested in accordance with BS EN 14770-1, and certified by an independent materials testing institute.

The range includes:

G-Line Gas Cylinder Cabinets for the storage of pressurised gas cylinders in working areas according to EN 14470-2 and TRGS 510, and unique on the market, the gas cylinder cabinet with a 60cm width for the storage of two 50 litre steel gas cylinders, or two 40 litre aluminium gas cylinders with a diameter of 230mm.

UB-Line GS-tested safety storage under-bench cabinets for unrestricted storage of flammable hazardous materials in work areas in accordance with EN 14470-1 and TRGS 510, with a fire resistance of 90 (Type 90) or 30 (Type 30) minutes.

S-Line GS-tested safety storage cabinets for unrestricted storage of flammable hazardous materials in work areas in accordance with EN 14470-1 and TRGS 510, with a fire resistance of 90 (Type 90) or 30 (Type 30) minutes.

V-Line safety storage cabinets with vertical drawers for unrestricted storage of flammable hazardous materials in working areas according to EN 14470-1, with a type-tested fire resistance of 90 minutes (Type 90).
