Javier, I would refer you to: 1) Your local Fire Marshal; 2) NFPA-45 "Standard on Fire Protection for Laboratories Using Chemicals" 3) NFPA-99 "Standard on Fire Protection for Health Care Facilities" 4) CDC/NIH "Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories" 5) The Semiconductor Safety Association As others have said, where you are (what fire jurisdiction you are under) and precisely what kind of laboratories you are dealing with are primary decision criteria in answering your question.
