The Eagle CRA-71 /corrosive under-counter safety cabinet has
two manually closing doors, one adjustable shelf, and an epoxy
powder finish, and can be used to store safety cans containing up
to 22 gallons of s or corrosive liquids. The cabinet is made
of 18-gauge galvanized steel, which is resistant to rust, dents,
and certain s. Gauge is a measure of thickness (the lower
the gauge, the thicker the material). The top, sides, doors, and
bottom of the cabinet are double-walled, with 1-1/2 inches of
space between the walls, to reduce the risk of fires. The blue
epoxy powder finish resists heat, wear, corrosion, and certain
s, though the cabinet is not recommended for use with
sulfuric, nitric, or hydrochloric .
The three-point key lock and button latch help keep the cabinet
doors securely shut. The doors are attached to the cabinet with
continuous piano hinges, which are more secure than typical butt
hinges. The door sill is 2 inches high to help keep out moisture.
The shelf is supported by four brackets and can hold up to 350
pounds. Shelf and bottom trays help contain spills and are made
of polyethylene, which is resistant to certain s, s,
and corrosive liquids. Two 2-inch vents allow internal vapors to
escape. Each vent has a fire baffle and cap to help prevent
liquids inside the cabinet from igniting. A ground connection
facilitates grounding and helps prevent static sparks. Four
adjustable feet enable the cabinet to be leveled. A safety
warning label in English, French, and Spanish alerts users to the
cabinet's contents.
The cabinet measures 35 x 35 x 22 inches (H x W x D), weighs 205
pounds, and can store up to 22 gallons of s or corrosive
liquids. (H is height, the vertical distance from lowest to
highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to
right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.)
It meets Occupational Safety and Administration (OSHA)
Standard 1910.106 and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
Code 30 for the safe storage and handling of flammable liquids.
Hazardous storage cabinets are used to store, organize, and
segregate safety cans containing flammable or hazardous liquids.
Some cabinets are made of galvanized steel and are double-walled
to reduce the risk of fires. Others are made of polyethylene,
which is resistant to certain s and corrosive liquids.
Cabinets may have standard hinged doors that close manually or
self-closing hinged or sliding doors that close automatically.
They can be color-coded: yellow for flammables; red for
combustibles; blue for corrosives; green for pesticides; silver
or light neutral for laboratory materials; and white or gray for
other waste or outdoor lockers. Certain cabinets are FM Approved
and meet National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and
Occupational Safety and Administration (OSHA) standards
for the storage and handling of flammable liquids. Hazardous
storage cabinets are used in a variety of commercial and
industrial environments and can also be suitable for home use.
