Shielding Lives: Cubicle Safety Shower with ABS Closed Bowl Eye Wash

 

In industrial settings where chemical exposure risks are present, having reliable emergency decontamination equipment is crucial for providing a rapid response to a workplace accident. Hughes’ cubicle safety shower with ABS closed bowl eye wash offers a comprehensive solution for workplace safety, combining efficiency with thoughtful design.

Containment and Protection

This cubicle safety shower is designed with Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) side panels and strip screens, effectively preventing surplus splashes of chemicals and contaminated water from spreading to surrounding areas, maintaining a safer environment for other workers. The shower includes a grated sump to direct the contaminated water to a nearby drain. An optional wastewater sump pump can be provided.

Powerful and Compliant Water Flow

The safety shower complies to ANSI Z358.1-2014 guidance on plumbed-in safety showers by providing a minimum water flow rate of 20 US gallons per minute for a minimum of 15 minutes with a reliable water supply, giving thorough and rapid decontamination in emergency situations. This high flow rate ensures that harmful substances are effectively washed away from the body, reducing the risk of injury or prolonged exposure. This compliance gives employers and employees confidence in the unit's effectiveness and reliability during critical situations.

Integrated Eye Wash Station

A standout feature of this cubicle safety shower is its integral covered eye wash, which can be used simultaneously with the main shower. The eye wash bowl is protected by a lid, keeping both the bowl and diffusers clean and free from dust and pollutants when not in use. When needed, the lid can be quickly pulled down, automatically activating the eye wash and delivering 3 US gallons of water per minute.
