Why is a Type 90 fireproof cabinet necessary for fire prevention? First, let's talk about the origin of Type 90. When it comes to Type 90, we have to mention the EN 14470-1 standard. EN 14470-1 is a safety standard for storing chemicals established in Europe in April 2004. Most people in China are familiar with FM safety certification, but few are familiar with EN 14470-1 standard. In fact, EN 14470-1 standard is much higher than FM standard. The EN 14470-1 standard includes three main safety basic requirements: reducing fires caused by chemicals stored in safety cabinets, and improving the protection of these materials in the event of a fire. The latter also establishes a fire resistance time (FR, unit: minutes) to reduce the emission of chemical gases into the environment and retain the leakage of chemical gases inside the cabinet. EN14470-1 includes four categories - flame retardant times of 15, 30, 60, and 90 minutes - to meet the different needs of EU member states. This standard is not fully acceptable to every member state, as the new standard cannot replace existing national regulations for the handling of flammable liquids in some EU member states. In the event of a fire, it is necessary to ensure that the chemicals stored in the safety cabinet do not pose additional risks and prevent the spread of the fire for no less than 15 minutes.

Why choose a 90 minute fire-resistant one?

At the beginning of the fire, the staff began to flee and the fire alarm was activated.

Leave for 5-10 minutes: The staff are mostly outside the danger zone. But at this moment, firefighters are on their way.

10-15 minutes away: At this time, firefighters arrive.

A regular fireproof cabinet has a fire resistance of 10 minutes, by which time the fireproof cabinet has become ineffective. The combustibles inside are no longer protected, and there is a possibility of new combustion and explosion.

At this point, the firefighters have arrived and are starting to extinguish the fire. The risk is high, and if firefighters encounter this type of fireproof cabinet, they will pay a higher price in terms of their lives. The Tianjin fire has demonstrated this point. For enterprises, they will pay more compensation while their reputation is damaged. Carrying the name of the company responsible for the safety incident.

Why stay for 90 minutes?

The safety cabinet is fire-resistant for 90 minutes and will not lose its protective function within 90 minutes. Combustible materials can be safely stored in the Type90 safety cabinet for 90 minutes, so that they do not burn and the loss and damage of the entire fire are minimized. At the same time, firefighters have enough time to understand the material situation in the laboratory and extinguish the fire.
