The Jamco BM-Series flammable cabinets are designed to store flammable and combustible liquids safely. Their use is an essential part of compliance in many industrial, laboratory, and workshop environments.
Here are some benefits of using these specialized cabinets:
♦ Safety: The primary benefit is increased safety. These cabinets are built to contain spills and to prevent the contents from igniting, providing a safe environment for workers.
♦ Compliance with Regulations: Storing flammable materials in a compliant manner is not just good practice; it's often required by law. OSHA and NFPA regulations may specify the use of such cabinets to ensure workplace safety.
♦ Fire Resistance: Jamco BM-Series cabinets are typically constructed with double-walled steel with insulating air space, providing fire-resistant protection to the contents inside.
♦ Leak Proof Sump: The bottom of the cabinets usually includes a 2-inch leak-proof sump designed to contain spills. This is crucial for preventing liquids from leaking out, creating a fire hazard, or causing environmental damage.
♦ Spill Containment: The shelves in these cabinets are often adjustable and include a trough design to contain spills within the cabinet, providing additional safety against potential leaks and spills.
♦ Durability: Jamco cabinets are typically made of durable materials like heavy-gauge steel, which can withstand harsh environments and provide long service life.
♦ Security: They come equipped with locks or can be padlocked, helping to prevent unauthorized access to dangerous materials.
♦ Visibility: Most flammable cabinets, including the BM-Series, have a bright yellow powder coat paint finish with large "FLAMMABLE - KEEP FIRE AWAY" labels. This makes them easily identifiable and reminds personnel of the hazards.
♦ Improved Organization: Using these cabinets helps maintain a more organized and efficient workspace by providing a designated area for flammable substances.
♦ Reduced Insurance Premiums: Sometimes, having proper safety equipment in place can reduce insurance costs because it decreases the risk of a costly fire.
♦ Ease of Access: Designed for convenience, these cabinets are often placed at point-of-use locations where flammable liquids are needed, which reduces the time spent retrieving materials from a distant storage location.
♦ Grounding Connection: To prevent static buildup, these cabinets usually include a grounding connection to ground the cabinet and its contents.
The Flammable Storage Safety Cabinet protects workers, reduces fire risks, and improves productivity by storing hazardous liquids in code-compliant safety cabinets. Any operation that uses flammable or combustible liquids can enhance safety by implementing code-approved liquid handling practices.c
