Encon’s Combination Emergency Shower and Eyewash Equipment provides the user with both a full body penetration as well as a localized orbital area coverage in one station. They feature self-regulating, fully dispersed, flow patterns from the eyewash, facewash, and shower heads. Encon’s unique design also ensures that the flow of fluids is non-injurious; covering body and facial regions while utilizing varying hydraulic pressures from the water supply source.
The Encon 01050273 wheelchair accessible combination shower and eye/facewash is a floor-mounted, plumbed emergency fixture that combines a 30 gpm overhead drench shower with an 8.0 gpm eye/facewash in a type 304 stainless steel bowl. This accessible combination unit is built with schedule 80 hot dip galvanized steel piping, chrome-plated bronze stay-open ball valves, and stainless steel actuators with actuation graphics for clear operation in emergency-use areas.
This unit is configured for free-standing installation with schedule 80 hot dip galvanized steel piping, a flanged floor mounting plate, and 1 1/4 in. NPT supply and waste connections. The shower valve is 1 in. and the eye/facewash valve is 1/2 in., both supplied as chrome-plated bronze stay-open ball valves with chrome-plated balls and stainless steel valve stems.
The eye/facewash assembly uses ABS plastic dual-stream heads with float-off covers secured by stainless steel bead chains. The heads are mounted on a chrome-plated brass wye and set in a type 304 stainless steel bowl. Stainless steel actuators with actuation graphics are provided for both the shower and the eye/facewash.
The shower delivers 30 gpm through a self-adjusting regulator, while the eye/facewash delivers 8.0 gpm total through two self-adjusting 4.0 gpm regulators. This regulated flow is designed to maintain a constant and even dual-stream flushing pattern under 30–70 psi hydraulic conditions. The showerhead delivers a minimum 20 in. diameter pattern to the target area 60 in. above standing level, and the unit is specified to provide a non-injurious stream of water for 15 minutes or longer.
This wheelchair accessible combination unit is suited for industrial plants, process areas, utility spaces, and other facilities where both full-body drenching and eye/face flushing may be required and an accessible emergency station layout is needed.
