Product Description
Combination eyewash stations combine a shower and an eyewash station in one unit. The shower provides a full body rinse to prevent injury after exposure to hazardous materials. Eye washes flush irritants from the eyes to treat and prevent eye damage. These workstations are used in laboratories, chemical plants, paper mills and other environments where potentially hazardous chemicals or materials are present. When installed near areas where hazardous chemicals or materials are handled, they allow quick emergency access.

Introduction
A foot-operated safety shower eyewash is a type of emergency eye and skin care equipment that is designed to provide immediate relief in the event of an accidental exposure to hazardous materials. The eyewash is typically installed near hazardous materials handling areas and is activated by pressing a foot-operated switch on the bottom of the unit. The eyewash provides a continuous flow of flushing fluid to the eyes and face in order to quickly remove any hazardous material that may have come in contact with the skin or eyes. The eyewash is usually connected to a water source, but can also be used with a tank of flushing fluid.
Background
Foot operated safety showers are designed to provide immediate relief in the event of an accidental exposure to hazardous materials. The eyewash is typically installed near hazardous materials handling areas and is activated by pressing a foot-operated switch on the bottom of the unit. The eyewash provides a continuous flow of flushing fluid to the eyes and face in order to quickly remove any hazardous material that may have come in contact with the skin or eyes. The eyewash is usually connected to a water source, but can also be used with a tank of flushing fluid. The eyewash is typically equipped with an adjustable spray nozzle to provide a uniform stream of flushing fluid, and is available in both single- and double-eyewash models.
Design
A foot-operated safety shower eyewash is typically made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel or high-density polyethylene. The eyewash is designed to ensure a continuous, high-pressure supply of flushing fluid to the eyes and face. The eyewash is equipped with a foot-operated switch that is activated when the user presses down on the switch with their foot. This switch is designed to ensure that the eyewash is activated immediately, providing the user with the most effective and timely relief from a hazardous material exposure.
Installation
Foot-operated safety shower eyewashes should be installed in a location that is convenient and accessible to personnel who may be exposed to hazardous materials. The eyewash should be installed at a height where personnel can easily access the eyewash without having to bend over or reach up to activate the switch. The eyewash should also be installed at a height that is appropriate for the user’s eye level. The eyewash should be attached to a water source to ensure a continuous supply of flushing fluid. The eyewash should also be equipped with an adjustable spray nozzle to provide a uniform stream of flushing fluid.
Maintenance
It is important to regularly inspect and maintain foot-operated safety shower eyewashes to ensure that they are in proper working order. The eyewash should be inspected for any signs of wear or damage, and the foot-operated switch should be tested to ensure that it is working properly. The flushing fluid supply should be checked to ensure that it is adequate and the nozzle should be adjusted to provide a uniform stream of flushing fluid. The eyewash should also be cleaned and sanitized on a regular basis to ensure that it is free of any bacteria, dirt, or debris.
Conclusion
A foot-operated safety shower eyewash is an important part of any hazardous materials handling facility. The eyewash is designed to provide immediate relief in the event of an accidental exposure to hazardous materials. The eyewash should be installed in a convenient and accessible location and inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that it is in proper working order. The eyewash should also be connected to a water source and equipped with an adjustable spray nozzle to provide a uniform stream of flushing fluid.
