Construction

The Red-E Cabinet is constructed of a
minimum thickness of 14 gauge steel
and is free standing. The standard paint
finish is bright red and black. The front
doors of the enclosure are fully hinged
(and removable) and open nearly to the
cabinet floor level allowing easy access
to the couplings when connecting the
water supply and drain. Pre-drilled
holes on tabs along the base of the
cabinet provide an anchor point for the
cabinet to be secured to the floor when
required. Industrial grade rollers at the
bottom of the cabinet are standard.
Internal controls that provide functions
to reset a system after operation - for
example, the alarm test valve or main
drain valve - are individually tagged for
easy identification. All prefabricated
piping is Schedule 40 steel.
A splash-resistant drain cup is pro-
vided that ensures water does not
splash into the cabinet during flow
testing. The discharging water can be
observed through a clear tube attached
to the drain cup. It is designed with a
fail-safe feature allowing water to over-
flow in the event the drain is blocked.
