Fire-protected refrigerators for maximum fire protection
Conventional laboratory refrigerators are unpredictable sources of danger. Without protection against external thermal influences, they pose a risk to life, limb and work materials in the event of a fire.
Store flammable substances safely, even when cooled
In many laboratories, flammable media are used which must be kept in refrigerated storage. According to BG Chemie, conventional laboratory refrigerators are not intended for this purpose, due to their lack of fire resistance. According to the definition, these refrigerators are not storage facilities for flammable liquids, but are used to keep reactants (flammable liquids) ready in the work process or to carry out test procedures, e.g. crystallisation of products. Only a combination of Type 90 technology (as per DIN EN 14470-1) with a cooling system equipped with an explosion-protected interior – e.g. COOL line – offers the ability to store media in a refrigerated state in compliance with TRGS 510.
90 minutes’ fire resistance
Fire and explosion-protected DÜPERTHAL Type 90 safety storage cabinets provide 90 minutes of reliable fire resistance. This provides sufficient time for evacuation in an emergency as well as valuable time for fire fighters to take decisive action.
Functional and safe
Despite the extra level of safety, with the COOL line from DÜPERTHAL there is no need to sacrifice functionality. DÜPERTHAL’s COOL line combines laboratory cooling technology with maximum fire resistance. It goes without saying that our products are type-tested according to DIN EN 14470-1, and comply with the laboratory furniture standard DIN EN 14727, as well as DIN EN 16121 and DIN EN 16122. Effective cooling from +2 °C to +16 °C along with many additional functions create the conditions for individually optimised, safe work processes.
