Model 8520 Freeze Protected Shower and Eye/Face Wash

FEATURES & BENEFITS

CONSTRUCTION

1-1/4" stainless steel 304 pipe stanchion along with stainless steel 9" (22.9cm) diameter floor flange, provide an unsurpassed durability in a long lasting product.


QUALITY CONTROL 

Entire unit is pre-built and pressure tested to ensure a  leak free installation. 


VALVES 

Eyewash and shower ball valves are designed to make  the flushing of contaminants occur with the simple pull  of a lever or push of a stainless steel flag. Both valves  come equipped with 316 stainless steel ball and stem  to provide greater protection against corrosion and  breakage.  


TEMPERATURE CONTROL 

Thermostatically controlled heat traced cable provides  the energy needed to keep the combination shower and eye/face wash at an optimal temperature. 25mm insulation and anti-UV plastic jacket further prevent  freezing down to temperature levels as low as -30° F  (-34.4° C) to maintain optimal functioning conditions.


SHOWER HEAD 

ABS plastic drench showerhead uses  a hydrodynamic design to give equal distribution of  water throughout the entire footprint of flow.


EYE/FACE WASH

ABS plastic eye/face wash head uses an inverted directional laminar flow to sweep contaminants away from the vulnerable nasal cavity.
