Pedestal-Mounted 8.0 GPM Eye/Facewash with Stainless Steel Bowl

Product Description

Pedestal-Mounted Eye/Facewash with Stainless Steel Bowl

The Encon® 01045502 eye/facewash provides a free-standing installation for locations requiring simultaneous flushing coverage for the eyes and face. UV-resistant ABS dual-stream heads are mounted on a chrome-plated brass wye assembly above a Type 304 stainless steel bowl. ABS float-off covers secured with stainless steel bead chains help protect the flushing outlets from dust and contamination when the unit is not in use.

Two self-adjusting regulators support a controlled and even combined flow of 8.0 gpm (30.3 L/min) across flowing pressures from 30 to 70 psi (206.8 to 482.6 kPa). The single-motion stay-open ball valve allows the eye/facewash to remain activated without requiring the user to continuously hold the stainless steel push plate.
