Ensure Sanitary Compliance for Emergency Eyewash Stations The Evac Systems Eyewash Station Cover is a simple yet critical safety accessory designed to solve a common industrial problem: dirty eyewash bowls. In dusty shops, factories, or labs, open eyewash basins often collect trash, grinding dust, and chemical residue. This cover keeps the nozzles and bowl sanitary, ensuring that when an emergency occurs, you aren't flushing an injured eye with contaminants.

Open eyewash discharge ports collect what the room produces. In a machine shop that means grinding dust and metal shavings. Outdoors it means windblown grit, rain, and insects. Either way, the first flush of an emergency should not be pushing that debris toward an injured eye.

The EVAC Systems Eye Wash Cover fits over the discharge port assembly on standard stations and keeps it clean between uses. A bottom drawstring cinches the cover closed against wind, which is what makes it work on outdoor and exposed installations where a loose drape does not stay put.

Key Features

  • Drawstring closure: Cinches at the bottom for a secure fit that holds in wind. Releases in about a second when you need the station.
  • Debris protection: Covers the discharge ports and keeps dust, shavings, and airborne debris out of the assembly between uses.
  • Built for exposed installations: Suited to outdoor stations, loading areas, and any location where a simple drape would blow off.
  • High-visibility color: Red or orange makes the station easier to spot across a shop floor or a staging area.
  • Made in the USA: Domestic manufacture

Where It Fits in Your Compliance Program

ANSI Z358.1 Section 5.1.3 requires that eyewash nozzles be protected from airborne contaminants, and that the protective device come off without a separate motion when the unit is activated. Station-integrated flip-off covers are what meet that requirement.

This cover is a maintenance measure, not a substitute for those. It protects the port assembly between uses so that the equipment stays clean and serviceable, and it must be removed before activating the station. Facilities running weekly activation checks under Section 5.5 typically remove and replace it as part of that routine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this cover make my eyewash station ANSI compliant?

No, and any cover sold on that basis deserves a second look. ANSI Z358.1 Section 5.1.3 requires that nozzle protection come off without a separate motion when the station is activated, which is why compliant stations ship with integrated flip-off covers. This drawstring cover is removed by hand before use. Its job is keeping the discharge ports clean between emergencies, which protects the condition of your equipment rather than satisfying the activation requirement itself.

Why a drawstring instead of a pop-off design?

Because it holds in wind. A cover that falls away on contact is convenient indoors but will not stay on an exposed outdoor station. The drawstring cinches the cover closed at the bottom so it stays where you put it through weather and air movement, and it releases in about a second when you need the station.

What is the EVAC Systems eye wash cover made of?

Nylon. It resists abrasion and tearing better than vinyl, which cracks and splits over time in cold weather and under UV exposure. That matters most on outdoor and unheated installations, where a vinyl cover tends to become the thing you replace every season.

Will the 10" x 11" cover fit my eyewash station?

The cover measures 10 inches by 11 inches and is sized for the discharge port assembly on standard wall-mounted and pedestal stations. Measure your port assembly before ordering. If you are standardizing across a facility with mixed equipment, send us your station models and we will confirm fit before you commit to a quantity.

Should this cover be part of our eyewash inspection routine?

Yes. Treat it the way you treat any cover on emergency equipment: remove it during the weekly activation check, confirm the discharge ports are clear, and replace it afterward. A cover that has not been lifted in six months is hiding a station nobody has tested.
