The laboratory is the base for scientific research,
Plays a very important role in the development of science and technology,
Therefore, it is the main place for experimental teaching,
It is also an important place for scientific experimental research.
As an experimental place for scientific research, laboratory safety is of paramount importance. Its scientific planning and layout can not only ensure the personal safety of laboratory workers, but also make effective and reasonable use of laboratory space, allowing workers to Work comfortably and more efficiently.
To achieve scientific planning and design of a laboratory, it is necessary to consider all aspects of use, area, number of workers, entrance and exit locations, location and placement of experimental benches, placement of laboratory equipment, etc.
1. Select the experimental bench according to the type of laboratory
In the laboratory, the experimental bench is one of the most important pieces of equipment and usually occupies the largest space. The optimal placement design of the experimental bench must not only meet the experimental needs, but also maximize the mobility of the space.
Experimental benches are generally divided into two categories: central experimental benches and experimental side benches.
The central experimental bench is arranged in the center of the space, and is most suitable in an island shape. There is enough walkway space around it to facilitate staff activities, and they can quickly access emergency equipment or safety exits. When there are definite exits on both sides or ends of the laboratory, a peninsula-shaped experimental bench can be used.
▲Application Case of Oceano Central Experimental Bench
Experimental side tables are usually used in single laboratories and are placed against the wall, with a passage in the middle of the room. The concave workbench allows staff to feel comfortable while working for long periods of time, and can also leave more space for laboratory activities.
▲Application Case of Oceano Experimental Side Table
It is worth noting that whether it is the laboratory central table, laboratory side desk, or other equipment, the setting and design must ensure the smoothness of the exit and the convenience of activities in the laboratory. It should be based on the functions and functions of the central table. The location of major fixed equipment willLaboratory partitions.
2. Open the door toward the exit
The best orientation of the entrance and exit door design is towards the exit, so that staff can easily open the door in panic. More importantly, it takes less time to push the outward-opening door than to pull it open. At the same time, the number of entrances and exits should be determined based on the risk factor of the laboratory, the number of dangerous equipment, and the degree of harm.
3. The shape of the aisle should be regular
The main channel of the experimental bench or equipment room cannot hinder the passage of people and objects, and generally requires a length of 1800mm or more. The passage should be designed to lead to the exit, because laboratory accidents are often accompanied by thick smoke and poisonous gas. In this case, if you climb out of the laboratory along the floor, the passage will lead to the exit irregularly and unreasonably. There will be no time to escape the laboratory.
4. Scientific design of work surface size and height
Scientifically design the size of the work surface and floor-standing storage cabinets, and consider the location of the passage opening to facilitate access to items on the work surface or to facilitate operations on the table. The height of the seat work surface is designed between 800-850mm.

Staff can work comfortably and improve work efficiency!
