Subject: house hold refrigerators in labs with flamables
X-To: DCHAS-L Discussion List

Can house-hold refrigerators (non-explosion proof) be safely used in labs that store and/oruse flammables such as acetone and pet. Ether?

 

Would there be a threshold amount(say 500 mL) below which it could be safe? 

 

I was wonderingif there is a written standard for this somewhere that I could use to answer these questions in labs where policies are being considered.
