Optical Laboratory

We were approached by a main contractor who were refitting an optical laboratory to supply and install a walk in cold room.

The lay out of the premises made the use of a Modular room an ideal solution. We used an 80mm modular design with a reinforced floor with a non-slip polyester finish.

The cold room was installed first, following which the rest of the laboratory was built around it, blending it in to the walls for a neat finish.

An 800mm x 2000mm hinged door was used to allow for ease of access, fitted as standard with a Yale type lock and an internal anti panic release button. Nylon coated, 3 tier, 450mm deep shelving was installed to 3 sides.

Finally we installed a 2kw refrigeration system to maintain a temperature of +1/4°c, using a J & E Halls condensing unit with a Univap evaporator. A control panel with LED temperature display and alarm functions was positioned to the front of the room and together with internal lighting the job was completed and commissioned within a week.
