BoxSAFE BCTS Features
Access doors meet or exceed enforced standards and certifications
- Double bi-fold doors on the long side of the container allow full access to the hazardous storage unit. A single bi-fold doors provides access to half of the unit, while you can open both for access to the entire unit. Maximum accessibility and easy loading double-stacked pallets, chemical storage drums, and totes. Perfect for forklift loading and unloading.
- This ISO shipping container chemical storage unit delivers lockable double doors with cam closures, located on short end of the container. The access doors total dimensions measure 7’9’’ high x 7’5‘’ wide.
- A spill-proof secondary spill containment sump flooring system raises the storage-level grated flooring up from the bottom of the container’s exterior.
- This means the interior flooring is raised from the ground and there is a step up from ground to grated flooring offsetting the bottom of the door and the bottom of the floor of the unit. As such, we include an industrial-grade, heavy-duty access ramp for easy access throughout the contract period.
Secondary Hazardous Chemical Spill Containment System
- Secondary spill containment sump provides 460 gallons of storage capacity.
- This chemical storage container is engineered with a high quality secondary containment system to prevent leakage of any solid or liquid chemicals from the storage area. This system is engineered to meet or exceed the EPA’s spill containment requirements of twenty seven percent (27%) capacity. The flooring system is fabricated to meet the National Association of Architectural Metal Manufacturers (NAAMM MBG 531, “Metal Bar Grating Manual for Steel, Stainless Steel, and Aluminum Gratings and Stair Treads.”) standards and specifications.
- The 1″ deep open-grated floor enables any spilled material to fall through the grate directly into the storage sump. This lessens contamination of other material stored in the proximity, protects the locker itself, and ensures all spills are self-contained and never leaked into the environment.
- The leak-proof storage sump is fabricated of solid steel walls and floor with continuous water-tight welds, treated with a chemical-resistant coating, and engineered to provide full-coverage secondary containment sump across the interior of the locker. A high density leak-proof sump liner is provided for additional spill protection. This liner also ensures a more cost-effective cleanup in the event a spill occurs.
Flooring and Accessibility
- The total floor loading provides a minimum of 500 pounds per square foot. This raised floor of steel grating stretches over the entire storage area floor, providing a secure storage surface. This allows any spill to directly enter the liquid-tight secondary spill containment storage sump.
- Included access ramp measures 60″W x 88″L for easy loading and unloading. This ramp is fabricated from 12-gauge steel and rated for 275 lbs. per sq. ft., ideal for hand-truck carried chemical storage drums.
Optional Electrical Components & Load Center
- Our electrical components are UL-listed, single-phase, 3-wire, and have a 120/240V 100 electrical load center. The load center is mounted on the exterior of the locker, encased with a rainproof, sleet-resistant, and ice-resistant outdoor grade enclosure. It has been designed to meet with all of the requirements of the Underwriters’ Laboratories.
- All of the installation of our electrical components in the chemical storage lockers are done within the regulations of the National Electrical Manufactured Association (NEMA), National Electrical Code (NEC), and the National Fire Protection Association. This locker is well equipped with all of the electrical and motor components necessary for operation once a power source has been supplied.
Optional Explosion Proof Mechanical Ventilation
- This locker features a high-quality ventilation system required for proper chemical storage facilities. This system is designed to ventilate flammable storage areas with proper air turnover. It has a continuous minimum replacement of one cubic foot every minute. Our ventilation system is well equipped with 3-hour fire dampers, UL-listed 165-degree fusible link activation system, and a gravity flow ventilation system.
- The mechanical ventilation system moves about 6 full air changes every hour. This exhaust air is released above the locker so as not to accidentally recirculate bad air. This explosion-proof electromechanical ventilation system uses a UL-listed, Class I, Division 1, Group C and D compliant enclosed motor with non-static 12-inch diameter cast aluminum fan blade. This mechanism is externally mounted, which can be manually operated with the exterior UL fan switch prior to entering the locker.
