Earthquake-proofcabinets for the storage

of flammable liquids

Q-SR-90 ShockResistant120 cm

No matter whether in an industrial, laboratory or trade setting – there is a ubiquitous need for flammable liquids that are used on a daily basis, and which must be stored correctly and safely.

To meet this demand, asecos offer special safety storage cabinets that are tested and constructed to EN 14470-1 as long-lasting, high-quality products.

In regions that are prone to earthquakes it is especially important that flammable liquids are stored safely and protected from shocks. In the event of a fire caused by an earthquake, the safety storage cabinet prevents the liquids

stored inside from fuelling the fire. In many regions around the world there are areas that are prone to earthquakes.

They are divided into 5 earthquake risk zones: Zone 0 (minor earthquakes) to Zone 5 (very large earth quakes, which cause destruction over large areas).

The Q-SR-90 ShockResistant cabinet provides protection in two re spects: certified to EN 14470-1 and GR-63-CORE-4, it meets the requirements for a 90 minute fire resistance as well as guaranteeing the highest degree of earthquake resistance for installation up to Zone 4.

Earthquake-proof storage of flammable liquids — what points should be noted?

EN 14470-1

Tested in accordance with the provisions of EN 14470-1, the Q-SR-90 ShockResistant provides fire resistance of at least 90 minutes. In the event of a fire, this minimises the danger arising from flammable liquids, thus providing the time needed for rescue and evacuation.

GR-63-CORE-4/ATIS-0.600.329,2008/ETS 300 019

If a product is to be certified for earthquake resistance to the high est safety standards, it must be tested for compliance with the relevant standards from the field of telecommunications. Why? Since commu-nications must be guaranteed in the event of an earthquake, it is here that the strictest test conditions are laid down. The Q-SR-90 ShockResistant complies with precisely these provisions of GR-63-CORE-4 / ATIS-0.600.329,2008 / ETS 300 019 and thus guarantees earthquake resistance for all risk zones. The basis for this testing is always the most severe earthquake that has ever been measured worldwide.

Tested safety that you can rely on!

Driven by this desire, asecos developed the first safety storage cabinet

with 90-minute fire resistance for the storage of flammable liquids in

1994. At that time, the product was revolutionary since only fire-

resistant storage rooms offered the same level of protection.

The innovative technologies that were invented in the following years

later set new standards and trends.

Wherever in the world there is a demand for first-class safety storage

cabinets, asecos experts are sure to be close at hand. Throughout the

world, customers benefit from selected partner companies and local

asecos representatives. In Europe, asecos are represented by branch

offices in the Netherlands, France, Spain and Great Britain.

300 employees develop and produce our products exclusively in the

German town of Gründau, where the asecos headquarters are located.

From here, asecos deliver safety storage cabinets to over 80 countries

all over the world.

Enthusiasm and inventiveness have made asecos the globally

leading manufacturer of EN 14470-1/-2-compliant safety

storage cabinets.
