3. Introduction

This manual describes the correc t use, installation and safety instructions of the UbeFlex®

Belintra shelving system.

The UBeFlex® storage system is used in the medical sector, and can be used on a highly versatile

basis, thanks to the modular set-up with D-type, DIN-type or W-type columns, possibly in

combination with shelves, in various departments of healthcare facilities. It can be used in both

sterile (storage of sterile sets) and non-sterile environments. From CSSD/SPD via the pharmacy

to the kitchen and cold storage. The shelving system was developed with quick assembly,

ergonomics, design, hygiene and modularity in mind. The set-up is accessible from both sides.

A shelving consists of 2 shelf profiles onto which plastic shelves with a length of 12 inch are

placed. The length of the shelving determines the number of shelves. In each case, the available

lengths of a complete shelving are a multiple of 12 inch, up to a maximum of 72 inch. A shelving

with a length of 36 inch (as in the above illustration) has 3 shelves. The shelves are made from

plastic (polypropylene).

 Stationary or movable

The UBeFlex® posts are available both

stationary and movable, in connection with

floor cleaning. The stationary posts are

fitted with height-adjustable feet. This is to

absorb minor differences in height in the

floor surface. They make sure the rack can

be placed completely level by being slid in

and out.
