Applications for the Quantum QUS224CL
The Quantum QUS224CL is designed for organized storage of small parts, components, supplies, and inventory in suitable commercial, industrial, service, and facility environments. Its clear body, stack-and-hang configuration, and molded labeling area support organized access to frequently handled items.
Application note: Always compare the stored item's dimensions and weight with the QUS224CL's inside dimensions and 30-lb. load capacity before use.
Parts and Component Storage
The QUS224CL can be used to separate small parts and components into dedicated storage locations. Its clear construction allows users to identify contents without having to remove the bin from its storage position.
The molded-in ID label slot can provide additional identification for individual bins and their assigned contents.
Maintenance and Service Areas
Maintenance departments can use the QUS224CL to organize replacement components, hardware, supplies, and other smaller items used during routine service work.
The front, back, and side grips provide convenient handling points when bins need to be moved or repositioned.
Warehouses and Inventory Areas
Warehouse and inventory areas can use the QUS224CL to organize smaller products and components into dedicated storage locations. The clear body supports visual identification, while stacking allows available vertical storage space to be used efficiently.
For hanging installations, verify that the louvered panel or rail is compatible with the rear hanger and suitable for the intended storage load.
Workshops
Workshops can use the QUS224CL for organizing hardware, components, maintenance supplies, and other items that need to remain separated and accessible.
The stack-and-hang design allows the storage arrangement to be adapted to the available workspace.
Manufacturing and Production Areas
Manufacturing facilities can use organized bins to separate smaller components and supplies near appropriate workstations or inventory areas. The clear construction makes it easier to identify stored contents during replenishment and routine operations.
Commercial Storage Areas
The QUS224CL can be used in commercial storage areas where small inventory items need to remain organized and easy to locate. Its narrow 4-1/8-inch outside width can be useful where available storage space is limited.
Medical and Supply Storage
The clear construction can be useful for appropriate supply organization where visual identification is important. The manufacturer identifies the bin as autoclavable up to 250°F and resistant to extreme cold.
Facilities should verify that the bin's material, cleaning procedures, load capacity, and dimensions are appropriate for their specific storage requirements.
Food Service and Ingredient Organization
The QUS224CL is made from polypropylene and is part of Quantum's Clear-View storage-bin range. It can be considered for suitable food service or supply organization applications when the specific use, cleaning process, storage conditions, and facility requirements are appropriate.
Customers should verify application-specific requirements before using the bin for food-related storage.

Stacking Applications
When using the QUS224CL in a stacked configuration, place the bins on a stable and suitable surface. The wide stacking ledge and anti-slide lock are designed to help maintain stability and reduce forward shifting.
Hanging Applications
The built-in rear hanger allows the QUS224CL to hang from compatible louvered panels or rails. Verify the supporting system before installation and make sure it is appropriate for the intended storage load.
Temperature and Cleaning Considerations
The manufacturer identifies the QUS224CL as autoclavable up to 250°F and resistant to extreme cold. Customers should evaluate the actual temperature, cleaning method, and environmental conditions of the intended application before use.
Storage Layout Considerations
When planning a storage system, determine whether the QUS224CL will be stacked or hung and allow sufficient space for handling.
Plan Your Storage Layout
For effective organization, measure the items against the inside dimensions, confirm the 30-lb. load capacity, and determine whether the bins will be stacked or hung before installation.
