Pedestal eyewash

A pedestal eyewash station is a safety device designed to provide immediate flushing of the eyes in the event of exposure to hazardous substances. These stations are typically installed in workplaces where employees may be at risk of eye injuries due to chemicals, dust, or other harmful materials.

### Key Features of Pedestal Eyewash Stations:

1. **Design**: Pedestal eyewash stations are usually mounted on a stand or pedestal, making them easily accessible. They often have a bowl or basin that allows for hands-free operation.

2. **Water Supply**: They are connected to a potable water supply and are designed to deliver a steady flow of water to flush the eyes effectively.

3. **Activation**: Many models feature a push handle or foot pedal that activates the water flow, allowing users to flush their eyes without needing to use their hands.

4. **Compliance**: Eyewash stations must meet specific safety standards, such as those set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). This includes requirements for water temperature, flow rate, and accessibility.

5. **Maintenance**: Regular maintenance and testing are essential to ensure that the eyewash station is functioning correctly and that the water is clean and safe for use.

6. **Location**: Eyewash stations should be located within a 10-second walk from potential hazards and should be clearly marked for easy identification.

### Importance:

Having a pedestal eyewash station in the workplace is crucial for ensuring the safety and health of employees. In case of an emergency, immediate access to an eyewash station can significantly reduce the risk of serious eye injuries and long-term damage.
