Great link, thanks Bob.

 

Outside of just venting, if you're going to replace corrosives cabinet, it is also not a bad idea to find ones that are made out of corrosion-resistant materials (I'm a big fan of the polymer ones that are available from various vendors)

Hello,

We have an acid cabinet which is ventilated. The ventilation for the cabinet is too low to measure and as a result the cabinet has corroded. We are replacing the cabinet. Does anyone know what the appropriate flow rates are for such a cabinet storing mineral acids would be?
