Safety Wash Equipment

On-Site® Gravity-Fed Eyewash and Transport CartSafety Wash Equipment devices like eyewash stations and emergency showers are intended to rapidly remove dangerous substances from the body or eyes in the case of an accident or exposure. These are essential for reducing accidents at work where poisonous or corrosive material handling occurs.

Combination Emergency Shower and EyewashKey Components and Types:

Emergency Showers: Provide a continuous flow of water to drench the entire body, washing away hazardous substances. 
Eyewash Stations: Specifically designed to flush the eyes and face with a gentle stream of water, removing chemicals and debris. 
Eyewash and Eye-Face Wash Units
Combination Units: Combine both safety showers and eyewash stations, offering comprehensive protection. 
Drench Hoses: Handheld devices are to flush specific areas of the body and are particularly useful when a full shower or eyewash station is not accessible or appropriate. 

Combination Emergency Shower and EyewashRequirements and Standards:

Accessibility: Must be easily accessible within a 10-second travel time from the hazard, with clear and unobstructed pathways. 
Water Flow and Temperature: Eyewash stations need a minimum flow rate (e.g., 0.4 gallons per minute for 15 minutes) and water temperature between 60°F and 100°F. Safety showers must deliver a sufficient flow for a specific duration (e.g., 30 gallons per minute for 15 minutes). 
Installation and Maintenance: Installation must adhere to standards like ANSI Z358.1 with regular inspections and upkeep to ensure proper functionality. 
Signage and Lighting: Clearly marked with highly visible signage and well-lit for easy identification and use.
