A combination eye wash shower is a safety fixture that combines both an eye wash station and a shower within a single unit. This type of fixture is commonly used in industrial settings, laboratories, and other work environments where there is a risk of chemical exposure or other hazardous substances getting into the eyes or onto the body.Here are some key features and considerations of combination eye wash showers:Eye wash station: The eye wash component typically consists of two spray heads that deliver a flow of water to rinse chemicals or foreign objects from the eyes. It is important that the eye wash spray heads are positioned at the correct height and angle to effectively flush the eyes while allowing the user to keep their eyelids open.Showerhead: The showerhead provides a large volume of water for rinsing the body in case of chemical splashes or skin contamination. It should be situated above the user’s head and have a wide spray pattern to ensure thorough coverage.Activation mechanism: Combination eye wash showers often have a foot pedal, pull handle, or push plate system to activate the flow of water. This allows the user to activate the fixture hands-free in an emergency situation.Water temperature control: Some combination eye wash showers come with thermostatic mixing valves that allow for control over the water temperature. This ensures that the water being delivered is within a safe range, preventing scalding or drastic temperature changes.Compliance with safety standards: It is essential to ensure that any combination eye wash shower you choose meets the relevant safety standards and regulations, such as ANSI/ISEA Z358.1-2014.Regular maintenance and testing of the combination eye wash shower are crucial to ensure it functions properly when needed. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for maintenance, inspection, and flushing frequency to keep the unit in optimal condition.
