QMP Mobile Acid and Alkali Cupboard

QMP Mobile Acid and Alkali Cupboard

The QMP mobile acid and alkali cupboard provides lockable, clearly identified storage for corrosive substances used in laboratories, workshops, schools, maintenance departments and industrial workplaces. Castors allow the cabinet to be repositioned between suitable indoor work areas when controlled mobile chemical storage is required.

The cupboard combines powder-coated steel construction with an adjustable spill-retaining shelf, an integral liquid-tight sump and secure two-point locking. Warning labels help identify its intended use, while the mobile design can position stored substances closer to authorised work areas and reduce unnecessary manual handling.

Using a Mobile Chemical Storage Cupboard

Select and use the cupboard according to the substances, container sizes, safety data sheets and controls identified through the workplace COSHH assessment. A specialist cabinet can support chemical-storage procedures, but it does not create COSHH compliance by itself.

Containers should be closed, stable, correctly labelled and compatible with their contents before the cupboard is moved. Acids, alkalis and other incompatible substances should be segregated according to their safety data sheets and workplace risk assessment.

Suitable Applications

Mobile acid and alkali cupboards are suitable for controlled use in science laboratories, research facilities, manufacturing sites, maintenance areas, workshops and facilities-management departments. Movement should be limited to authorised personnel using a clear, level indoor route.

QMP Mobile Acid and Alkali Cupboard Specification

The QMP mobile acid and alkali cupboard provides lockable, clearly identified storage for corrosive substances used in laboratories, workshops, maintenance departments, schools and industrial workplaces. Castors allow the cupboard to be repositioned on suitable level indoor floors where controlled mobile chemical storage is required.

Model CA109046MWXX includes an adjustable spill-retaining shelf, an integral liquid-tight sump and secure two-point locking. Select and use the cupboard according to the substances, container sizes, safety data sheets and controls identified through the workplace COSHH assessment.

Spill Containment and Storage

The adjustable spill-retaining shelf and integral sump help restrict the spread of minor leaks within the cupboard. These features do not replace compatible containers, regular inspections, suitable absorbent materials or an established workplace spill-response procedure.

Do not exceed the stated 50 kg shelf load. The load must be distributed evenly across the shelf, and heavy containers should be positioned to maintain cupboard stability.

Moving the Cupboard

Only authorised personnel should move the cupboard. Before movement, confirm that all containers are closed, stable, correctly labelled and suitable for transport. The intended route should be level, unobstructed and appropriate for the loaded cupboard.

Do not move the cupboard while containers are open, damaged, leaking or likely to become unstable.

Chemical Compatibility

The cupboard should not be treated as universal storage for every hazardous substance. Review the safety data sheet for each proposed chemical and confirm that the containers, cupboard and other stored substances are compatible.

Acids and alkalis should normally be segregated because incompatible substances may react dangerously. Flammable liquids, oxidising chemicals and other specialist substances may require separately selected storage.

COSHH and Workplace Assessment

A mobile chemical storage cupboard can support controls identified through a COSHH assessment, but it does not establish compliance by itself. Employers must also assess exposure risks, manage access, provide suitable labelling and maintain appropriate handling, inspection and emergency procedures.

Ordering and Delivery

Before ordering, confirm the cupboard dimensions, available floor space, doorway widths and intended movement route. Delivery is normally made kerbside to an accessible mainland UK address, and the cupboard may arrive palletised.
