Titan SCY-45 45-Gallon (170 L) Flammable Liquid Safety Cabinet

Overview

The Titan SCY-45 is a UL-listed and FM-approved flammable liquid safety cabinet engineered for secure, code-compliant storage of Class I, II, and IIIA flammable liquids in laboratories, pharmaceutical production areas, quality control facilities, and industrial R&D environments. Designed in accordance with NFPA 30 (Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code), OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106, and ANSI Z358.1 standards, this 45-gallon (170 L) cabinet features double-walled 18-gauge steel construction with a 1.5-inch air gap for thermal insulation, self-closing three-point latching doors, and dual 2-inch adjustable leveling feet for stable floor placement. Its integrated spill containment sump—capable of retaining up to 2 gallons (7.6 L)—ensures secondary containment compliance during accidental leakage or container failure. The cabinet operates without external power and requires no ventilation ducting unless mandated by local fire codes or facility-specific hazard assessments.

Key Features

• Double-wall 18-gauge steel construction with 1.5-inch insulating air space for enhanced fire resistance (tested to withstand 10-minute exposure at 1,000°F / 538°C per UL 1275)
• Self-closing, three-point stainless-steel latch system with automatic door closure activated by fusible link (melting point: 165°F / 74°C)
• Leveled base with two 2-inch adjustable leveling feet and pre-drilled anchoring holes for seismic or high-traffic zone installation
• Spill containment sump with 2-gallon (7.6 L) capacity, sloped floor design, and removable galvanized steel tray for easy cleaning and residue inspection
• High-visibility fluorescent warning labels compliant with ANSI Z535.4 (including “FLAMMABLE – KEEP FIRE AWAY” and GHS pictograms)
• Integrated grounding lug with 10 AWG copper wire connection point to prevent static discharge ignition risks
• Door-mounted adjustable shelf (16.5″ W × 20.5″ D) and optional secondary shelf kit for optimized vertical storage configuration

Sample Compatibility & Compliance

The SCY-45 accommodates standard laboratory and industrial containers—including 1-, 4-, and 5-gallon metal or HDPE safety cans, glass reagent bottles (up to 4 L), and UN-rated plastic jerricans—without compromising internal clearance or airflow. It meets mandatory requirements for storage of acetone, ethanol, methanol, hexane, toluene, ethyl acetate, and other common solvents used in HPLC mobile phase preparation, extraction protocols, and synthetic chemistry workflows. Regulatory alignment includes full conformance with NFPA 30 Chapter 9 (Storage Cabinets), OSHA 1910.106(d)(2), and local fire authority interpretations requiring maximum 60-gallon aggregate capacity per cabinet for Class I liquids. Optional third-party certification documentation (UL/FM test reports, material SDS compatibility summaries) is available upon request for GLP/GMP audit readiness.

Software & Data Management

As a passive mechanical safety device, the SCY-45 does not incorporate embedded electronics, firmware, or data logging functionality. All operational parameters are governed by fixed physical design—no calibration, software updates, or network connectivity are required. Maintenance records, inspection logs, and compliance verification documentation (e.g., monthly door-latch function checks, grounding continuity tests, sump integrity verification) may be managed via facility-wide EHS platforms such as Intelex, ETQ Reliance, or SAP EHS. Titan provides a printed User Manual with detailed maintenance schedules, inspection checklists, and regulatory reference crosswalks aligned with ISO 45001:2018 occupational health and safety management systems.

Applications

• Secure interim storage of flammable solvents between analytical instrument usage (e.g., GC, HPLC, FTIR sample preparation zones)
• Point-of-use containment in QC/QA labs handling raw materials, reference standards, or stability study samples
• Controlled dispensing stations in formulation development labs where solvent transfer occurs under fume hood supervision
• Compliant storage adjacent to chemical synthesis workbenches in academic or contract research laboratories
• Backup containment for solvent inventory in cGMP manufacturing suites operating under FDA 21 CFR Part 211 and EU Annex 15 guidelines

FAQ

Does the SCY-45 require ducted exhaust ventilation?

No—per NFPA 30 Section 9.5.2, flammable liquid cabinets are designed as self-contained units and do not require forced-air ventilation unless specified by local jurisdiction or facility risk assessment.
Can the cabinet be anchored to the floor or wall?

Yes—pre-drilled anchoring holes are provided at the base; seismic anchoring kits compatible with IBC 2021 and ASCE 7-22 load criteria are available as accessories.
Is the grounding lug sufficient for static dissipation in high-humidity environments?

Yes—the 10 AWG copper grounding conductor meets ANSI/ESD S20.20 requirements for static control when connected to a verified earth ground point with ≤25 ohms resistance.
What is the recommended inspection frequency per OSHA?

OSHA recommends visual inspection prior to each use; Titan advises documented monthly functional checks of door closure, latch integrity, sump condition, and grounding continuity.
Are replacement parts (e.g., fusible links, shelf supports) available separately?

Yes—Titan maintains a spare parts catalog including UL-listed fusible links (165°F), stainless-steel hinge pins, and powder-coated steel shelf components with 5-year warranty coverage.
