Installation & Operation Manual

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Employees who work with hazardous materials should

become familiar with the location and operation of the

nearest emergency plumbing fixture. Emergency

plumbing fixtures stations are simple to use and require

hands free operation once the station is activated.

Regular instruction regarding proper care and use will

increase confidence that the units are accessible and

function properly.

The route and area surrounding the Eye Wash should

be clear and unobstructed; the sooner eyes are flushed,

the less likelihood of damage. Eye Wash stations should

be located in close proximity to the hazard and take no

more than 10 seconds to reach. In the case of sever eye

contamination the victim may require assistance to the

Eye Wash station and help flushing their eyes.

Safety plumbing fixture equipment should be operated

weekly for a period long enough to verify operation,

clear the supply line of any sediment build-up and

minimize microbial contamination due to sitting water.

1. To start the Eye Wash, swing spray nozzle assembly

down horizontally over the basin or fully "ON" position.

Flushing should start, popping the spray nozzle caps

open.

2. Lower both eyes into flow. Both eyes should be

flushed to prevent contamination from one eye from

being delivered to unaffected eye. Personnel who

wear contact lenses should remove them immediately

prior to or during the flush to prevent the

contamination from remaining against the cornea

possibly causing unnecessary damage or pain.

3. Using thumb and forefingers, fully open eyelids and

flush eyes thoroughly for approximately 15 minutes or

until medical personnel arrive. Be prepared to let the

doctor know what type of contamination has entered

the eye.

4. When finished swing spray nozzle assembly up or

fully "OFF" position. Flushing fluid should stop. Once

flushing fluid has stopped flowing, return spray nozzle

lids to the closed position to protect from airborne

contaminates.

MAINTENANCE GUIDE:

Maintain and inspect in accordance with ANSI Z358.1-

2009

1. Check for obvious signs of wear, broken or defective

equipment. Re-paint if necessary. Replace missing or

defective equipment such as broken push paddles,

missing signs and inspection tags.

2. Remove strainer and washout any debris collected

–replace as required.

3. Operate Eye Wash nozzles swinging the spray nozzle

assembly down to place ball valve in the fully "ON"

position checking for smooth operation of valve push

paddle mechanism at the same time ensuring that the

Eye Wash spray nozzle caps pop off immediately

when actuated. If the ball valve does not operate

smoothly check the actuating assembly for binding or

missing parts. If the

position and swing back to stand by position. To

prevent Eye Wash spray nozzles from becoming

contaminated, always close nozzle lids after each

use.
