What is Gas cabinet?

A gas cabinet is a metal enclosure used to provide local exhaust ventilation for nearly all gases used or generated in semiconductor, solar, MEMS, NANO, solar photovoltaic, manufacturing, and other advanced technologies.The main purpose of a gas cabinet is to contain potential leaks in the piping and fittings at the gas cylinder connections.The cabinet must be exhausted through a specially designed fan and exhaust system.The cabinet exhaust system draws the leaked harmful gas out of the cabinet.If it is a flammable gas, the cabinet will suppress the flame for a period of time.Newly refurbished gas holders and unrefurbished old gas holders can be used as required.

Features

Gas cabinets are available in the market in a variety of different cylinder configurations such as 1, 2 and 3 cylinder designs.They can be new, used or refurbished.Depending on the specific gas, a gas cylinder cabinet can perform many functions.These features include gas sensors, sprinkler heads, excess flow sensors, automatic operation with automatic purge, and excess pressure sensors.They shall comply with the Uniform Fire Code Code and National Fire Protection Association requirements.They need to comply with the specifications of the Compressed Gas Association and the Semiconductor Equipment and Materials Association.It's also important to know if a cabinet is OSHA compliant.OSHA provides additional safety precautions involving the use of gas cabinets. In the absence of finite specifications or unknowns, the user or designer should seek the assistance of impartial advisors.Because of the thorough process used in professional restoration and testing to ensure that all systems meet manufacturer specifications,refurbished gas cabinets may be more useful than non-refurbished used gas cabinets. Depending on the type of gas in the cylinder, different types of gas cabinets are available.Automated gas cabinets with multiple sensors are useful and fulfill many other requirements.Gas cabinets can also be built specifically for a company's needs at a lower cost.Gas cylinder fire safety requires the use of gas cabinets. Requirements vary by state. Many states do not have advanced regulations for hazardous industrial gases because there is little or no use of such gases in the state.
