Containment & Safety Cabinets

We recommend that all sampling valves and sampling systems are supplied complete with a safety cabinet housing the sample bottle. A cabinet offers these advantages over a sampler with an unprotected sample bottle:
• Fumes are extracted from the cabinet if it is connected to a vacuum extraction system as we recommend.
• Protection for the glass bottle from external damage.
• Protection from any spillages which could occur.
• Levels of isolation from the sample depending upon cabinet design.

Standard Design
We offer a standard design of cabinet which is manufactured from 316 stainless steel offering good corrosion protection from the elements.

The standard cabinet has these features:
• Hinged front opening door with laminated safety glass window.
• Vent flange in side, 1”NB ASME 150 complete with blank flange which can be connected to an extraction system.
• Drain connection in base of cabinet complete with ½”BSP plug.
• Tunded base to contain spills.
• Removable perforated tray in base for easy cleaning.
• Large door catch, easily opened and closed even when wearing thick gloves.
• The cabinet can be rotated around the base of sampler so the window provides the best view to the operator.
• The cabinet is 280mm High 190mm wide and 140mm deep suitable to house bottles up to 250ml.
