8.1
Intended use of the equipment
PolySafe Depots Type K are suited to the storage of water-polluting substances in all water-polluting clas-
ses WGK 1-3 in accordance with WHG / VAUwS (Water Hazard Law / Ordinance on Facilities for Handling
Substances Hazardous to Water) with a flashpoint over 100°C, which are stored in approved containers,
either indoors or outdoors. Fluids in accordance with DIBt media list 40-1.1 with a reduction ratio A

= 1.0
require no special proof of sealing and resistance, which also applies to the following materials groups:
aqueous solutions of organic acids up to 10%, mineral acids up to 20 % as well as acid hydrolising salts in
an aqueous solution (ph<6) apart from hydrofluoric acid and oxidising acids and salts, inorganic alkalis as
well as alkali hydrolising salts in an aqueous solution (pH > 8), with the exception of ammonia solutions
and oxidising solutions of salts (eg hypochlorite), solutions of inorganic non-oxidising salts with a pH value
between 6 and 8.
The shelving rack is suitable for the storage and dispensing of small containers. When dispensing, the
protruding spill pallet gives a high degree of additional safety.
The spill pallets should be used exclusively within the performance parameters listed in 4 "Technische
Daten".
8.2
Misuse
