Emergency eye wash stations
Emergency eye wash equipment is part of a facility’s response plan. Select equipment with the person responsible for the site assessment and confirm installation requirements before making a purchase.
What to check before ordering
- Identify the exposure risks, intended users and site response requirements before comparing station configurations.
- Review the exact model’s water supply, drainage, installation and operating requirements with the facility team.
- Plan unobstructed access and clear identification. Ask a qualified site professional to assess placement.
- Include inspection, testing, maintenance and user instruction arrangements in the purchasing brief.
