3. Introduction
This manual describes the correct 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.

4. Product
 Product architecture
The UBeFlex®shelving system consists of posts and a spacer set. A spacer set consists of 4 connecting elements that join the posts
together. You need 2 posts and 1 spacer set to build 1 column. In addition, possibly also spacer locks and a back reinforcement kit are
added (see maximum capacities p. 4).
