PVC Supply-Pipe Mounted 3.5 GPM Eyewash with Yello-Bowl®

Product Description

PVC Supply-Pipe-Mounted Emergency Eyewash with Yello-Bowl®

The Encon® 01038301 emergency eyewash provides a corrosion-resistant supply-pipe-mounted configuration for applications requiring PVC piping. UV-resistant ABS dual-stream heads are positioned above a high-visibility ABS Yello-Bowl® and include ABS float-off covers secured with stainless steel bead chains to help protect the flushing outlets from dust and contamination when the unit is not in use.

A self-adjusting regulator supports a controlled and even 3.5 gpm (13.2 L/min) dual-stream flow pattern across flowing pressures from 30 to 70 psi (206.8 to 482.6 kPa). The single-motion stay-open ball valve allows the eyewash to remain activated without requiring the user to continuously hold the stainless steel push plate.
