Frequently Asked Questions
How does the BS22YP differ from the BS44YP?
The BS22YP is a compact half-height cabinet (22 gal, 35" tall, 1 shelf) that fits under standard countertops, while the BS44YP is a full-height freestanding cabinet (44 gal, 65" tall, 3 shelves). Both feature the same FM Approved self-close fusible link mechanism and OSHA/NFPA Code 30/UFC 79 compliance. Choose the BS22YP for under-counter installation or space-constrained areas.
What is the advantage of self-close over manual close for a smaller cabinet?
In a compact under-counter or lab environment, a self-close cabinet provides passive fire protection without relying on personnel to close the doors during an emergency. The fusible link automatically seals the cabinet at 165°F, containing flammable vapors and liquids even if the area is evacuated.
What chemicals can be stored in the BS22YP?
The BS22YP is rated for Class I and Class II flammable liquids up to 60 gallons total per storage area, and Class III combustible liquids up to 120 gallons. Common examples include acetone, IPA, MEK, and other flammable solvents.
Can an additional shelf be added?
Yes — the optional GS134 additional adjustable galvanized shelf can be added to increase storage capacity within the cabinet.
