TrippNT Safety Shelf Workstation | 5S Bench 3 Shelves 2 Side Bays Tool Holders 50104

Technical Narrative

The TrippNT 50104 Safety Shelf Workstation is a procurement-grade multi-function bench organizer engineered for laboratories standardizing on 5S lean workstations where reagent bottles, wash bottles, tools, pens, pipettes, and consumables must each occupy a designated home within reach of the primary instrument. The unit consolidates seven storage functions into a single ¼″ white PVC fixture: three open shelves for bottles and box stacks, two flanking side compartments for taller items, and two pen/tool holders — all edged with 1″ safety lips that contain drips, leaks, and rolling objects before they reach the bench surface. The integrated spill-containment geometry is a meaningful feature in environments using open buffers, reagents, and pH meter wash solutions where routine drip events would otherwise stain or contaminate the bench.

External dimensions are 22⅞″ W x 14″ H x 9⅞″ D with a 5.52 lb finished weight, sized to span standard 24″ bench modules and serve as a self-contained workstation that replaces an ad-hoc arrangement of separate holders, trays, and pencil cups. The non-porous ¼″ white PVC substrate is chemically resistant to routine lab disinfectants — quaternary ammonium, 70% IPA, and dilute sodium hypochlorite — and ships fully assembled. Backed by TrippNT’s 100% Lifetime Guarantee.

Technical Specifications

Laboratory and Clinical Applications

The 50104 is deployed across regulated and research environments including academic chemistry and biology teaching labs, biotechnology R&D primary instrument benches, pharmaceutical QC titration and sample-prep stations, clinical chemistry analyzer side benches, pH meter and conductivity meter work zones, USP 797 sterile compounding prep areas, BSL-2 microbiology primary benches, environmental and water-quality testing workstations, dental laboratory material-prep areas, veterinary clinic treatment-room benches, food-and-beverage QC analytical stations, and forensic chemistry workstations. Its 1″ safety lip on all shelves is particularly valued in environments using open wash bottles, buffer solutions, and staining reagents that drip on handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What bottle sizes fit on the three shelves, and will standard 500 mL and 1000 mL wash bottles stand upright within the 14-inch height envelope?

The 14″ total height envelope accommodates the three shelf tiers and the side compartments. Individual shelf clear heights vary by tier but generally accommodate standard 500 mL (approx. 9″ total height) wash bottles, reagent bottles, and pH buffer pouches on the lower tiers, with the top shelf suited to flat-pack wiper boxes, clipboards, and notebook stacks. Taller 1000 mL wash bottles (approx. 13″) are best suited to the side compartments, which have unrestricted vertical access. Verify against the 9⅞″ D footprint for deep bottles with handle protrusions.

Does the 50104 replace the need for a separate pen cup, tool rack, and spill tray — or does it complement them?

For a typical single-instrument workstation (pH meter, titrator, conductivity meter, balance), the 50104 fully replaces separate pen cups, open tool racks, and flat spill mats, consolidating those functions into one permanent PVC fixture. It does not replace large spill containment trays for bulk solvent storage or flammable-cabinet secondary containment. For workstations requiring those functions alongside the 50104, pair it with a dedicated secondary-containment tray for the solvent storage zone.
