Cylinder cabinets for storing pressurized cylinders are of critical importance in terms of safety. These cabinets aim to minimize the risk of explosion, fire or leakage by ensuring that the cylinders are stored safely. There are certain technical features and safety requirements for such cabinets. In addition, certain legislation and standards are among the requirements that must be applied.
Technical Specifications of Cylinder Cabinets for Pressurized Cylinders
Material:
Cylinder cabinets
should generally be made of fire-resistant materials (e.g. steel). (For fire-resistant models, see other models)
Using stainless steel or galvanized steel increases corrosion resistance.
Ventilation:
Cabinets must have adequate ventilation to prevent the accumulation of gases inside.
Cylinder
cabinets, especially when storing explosive gases,
must have ventilation holes or a ventilation system. (Optional fan
can be added)
Separate Compartments:
Cylinder cabinets must have safety
mechanisms inside them to prevent cylinders from tipping over.
Door and Locking
Systems:
Covers must be able to be opened safely against fire or pressure build-up.
(Optional lock option is available)
Dimensions and
Transportation:
Cylinder cabinets must have sufficient space to store cylinders of various sizes.
Cabinets must be practical for transportation or relocation when necessary.
