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.
Key Features
- Auto-Release Design: Engineered to "pop off" instantly when the push-plate or foot pedal is activated. It does not hinder the operation of the unit in an emergency; the water pressure or the user’s motion knocks it aside effortlessly.
- Contaminant Protection: Covers the entire bowl and nozzle assembly, blocking dust, metal shavings, and airborne debris that can clog the aerators or cause secondary eye infections.
- Universal Fit: Designed to fit over standard round eyewash bowls (approx. 10-12 inches diameter) found on most Bradley, Haws, and Speakman units.
Why It Matters ANSI Z358.1 standards require that eyewash nozzles be protected from airborne contaminants. A dirty eyewash station is a liability. This cover provides a cost-effective way to meet compliance and ensure that your safety equipment is actually safe to use when seconds count.
How to Use
- Install: Drape the cover over the eyewash bowl.
- Secure: Fasten the hook-and-loop (Velcro®) strap around the pipe or drain to keep it from getting lost, while leaving the main cover loose enough to disengage.
- Activate: In an emergency, simply push the activation flag/paddle. The cover is designed to be pushed off or washed away by the water flow instantly.
Technical Overview The cover is made from durable, easy-to-clean vinyl. It attaches via a retention strap so it hangs nearby after activation, preventing it from being thrown away or lost.
