Does this cabinet meet DSEAR requirements?

How much weight can the shelves support?

Can I remove the sump for cleaning?

No, the sump is an integral, non-removable part of the cabinet base to ensure complete containment.

How do I adjust the shelf height?

The shelves are adjustable on 25mm pitches, allowing you to reposition them to suit the height of your specific containers.

Is the cabinet lockable?

What are the dimensions of the cabinet?

The cabinet measures 182.9cm in height, 91.5cm in width, and 45.7cm in depth.

Troubleshooting

The cabinet doors do not align correctly

Ensure the floor is level. Use shims under the base corners if the cabinet is leaning, which often causes the frame to rack.

The lock is difficult to turn

Check that the door is pushed fully closed so the two-point locking bars can engage cleanly. Apply a small amount of dry lubricant to the lock mechanism if it remains stiff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Place the cabinet on a perfectly level, solid floor to ensure the double doors hang correctly and the locking mechanism functions smoothly. Before loading materials, verify that all chemical containers are tightly sealed and compatible with the cabinet's storage guidelines. To maintain the unit, wipe down the exterior with a dry cloth periodically to keep the yellow finish clean and visible. Periodically inspect the sump for any collected liquid; if a spill is detected, use appropriate hazardous waste absorbent materials to clear the area immediately. Do not attempt to modify the cabinet, as this may compromise its regulatory compliance rating.
