Aquarion® Self-Contained Portable Eyewash With Heated Option

Product Description

Self-contained heated cartridge-fed eyewash solutions are ideal for facilities and work areas where plumbed potable water is not readily available and freeze protection is important. Encon’s Aquarion® Heated Self-Contained Cartridge Fed Eyewash builds on the AQ100 platform with an internal 120v heater and an external insulated jacket to help retain heat while maintaining the same compact, slim-profile cartridge-fed design.

The AQ100H130 is designed to deliver a non-injurious dual stream of water at 0.4 gpm (1.5 lpm) for 15 minutes or longer. The unit stores two 3.7-gallon saline solution cartridges, which are sold separately, and uses an enclosed tray design to help protect the eyewash heads from airborne contaminants when the unit is in the ready position.

Housing

Yellow polyethylene housing designed to hold up to two 3.7-gallon saline solution cartridges. The highly visible yellow ABS eyewash incorporates front graphics to indicate activation method, maintenance, and operational information.

Heater

Internal 120v heater with heat shield designed to help retain heat within the eyewash unit for cold-weather or freeze-protection applications.

Insulated Jacket

Removable high-visibility yellow insulated cover with snap closure. The jacket helps retain heat and adds thermal protection to the cartridge-fed eyewash assembly.

Power

11 ft (3.35 m) 16/3 Type SOWA/SOOW cord supplied with the unit.

Tray & Nozzles

The enclosed tray helps protect the eyewash heads from airborne contaminants when the unit is in the ready position. A single pull-down motion activates the tray and allows full user access to the dual streams of flushing fluid. Spent fluid is directed to a discharge port, where an optional drain tray can be provided. ABS plastic dual-stream heads install directly into the tray and deliver a non-injurious dual stream of water at 0.4 gpm (1.5 lpm).

Performance

This heated self-contained cartridge-fed eyewash is third-party certified to ANSI Z358.1 and is designed to deliver a non-injurious dual stream of water at 0.4 gpm (1.5 lpm) for 15 minutes or longer.

Cartridges

The AQ100H130 stores two saline solution cartridges, which are sold separately. The cartridge-fed design helps keep flushing fluid clean and ready for use while allowing easy handling and installation by one person.

AQ120S – Two 3.7-gallon sterile saline cartridges

Applications

This heated self-contained cartridge-fed eyewash is well suited for remote facilities, temporary work zones, warehouses, maintenance areas, outdoor service locations, and other environments where emergency eyewash capability is needed but plumbed potable water is not available. The insulated jacket and internal heater make it a practical choice where added thermal protection is required.

Activation & Use

The eyewash is activated by a single pull-down motion on the tray. When activated, the tray moves to an open position to allow immediate user access to the flushing streams while helping direct spent fluid to the discharge port.
