Laboratory and Medical Spark Safe Fridge Freezers

Spark safe refrigeration exists for one reason: flammable solvents give off vapour, and an ordinary fridge has a thermostat, a light switch and a fan motor inside the cabinet — any of which can arc.

Spark free and spark safe cabinets move those components out of the storage space or seal them, so vapour and ignition never meet. Where flammables are stored, this is a workplace safety requirement rather than a specification preference.

The range covers laboratory refrigerators and top-mounted freezers, with the temperature stability, logging and alarms clinical and research storage need.

Nuline supplies it. See the Nuline NLMS1000/2 spark free laboratory refrigerator and the NHFTS600 top mounted spark safe freezer.

Confirm your requirements against the relevant Australian Standard for your facility before ordering — the classes are specific and we can help match a cabinet to them.
