Fire Insulated & FM-Approved Chemical Cabinet for Flammable Liquids
This robust fire-insulated chemical cabinet, model BKS210, is designed for the safe storage of flammable liquids in demanding environments such as workshops and industrial settings. The cabinet is FM-approved according to FM Approval Standard 4922, ensuring a high level of protection, although it is not classified according to EN 14470-1. Its smart construction with double steel walls and a 38 mm insulating air gap provides reliable fire resistance. The self-closing doors activate automatically at 74°C (165°F) thanks to built-in fusible links, minimizing risk in the event of a fire.
Key Features and Specifications

Application and Important Information
The cabinet is primarily intended for the storage of flammable liquids and aerosols. It is not suitable for acids or bases without additional corrosion-resistant inserts. Please note that an FM approval is not the same as an EN 14470-1 classification. If your operations require a specific verified fire resistance time (e.g., 30, 60, or 90 minutes), we recommend a cabinet certified according to EN 14470-1.
