Special Features � PORTABLE � HIGH VISIBILTY

Description The portable eyewash station is ideal for low traffic or remote areas where there is the possibility of exposure to injurious or corrosive materials and there is no immediately available supply of potable water. The economical and convenient eyewash station does not require plumbing and can be wall mounted or placed on a countertop or other suitable flat surface. Ideal for use in locations such as

• construction sites

• agricultural / farm / horticultural sites

• garden and landscape centres

• petrol stations

• factories

• janitorial supply areas or any other facility where hazardous substances or chemicals are handled. A yellow eyewash pull strap provides ease of activation. Pull strap caps form an airtight seal that prevents dust and debris from collecting on the eyewash heads.

Construction The portable eyewash station features a highly visible yellow, UV protected, high-density polyethylene tank with no moving parts. The integral water reservoir holds 68 litres of water delivering gravity fed water to the eyewash heads. The tank includes integral handles on the top and sides, wide fill opening with threaded cap, highly visible identification / operation label and inspection / maintenance tag. Eyewash heads provide a minimum of 1.52 litres/minute flow rate for 15 minutes. The unit is supplied with a heavy duty stainless steel wall bracket for wall mounting and easy removal and remounting.

Water Preservative One container of concentrated water preservative is supplied with each eyewash station to increase the storage life of the water solution for up to six months.
