UNIQUE DESIGNFEATURES
Good designs can beimproved and updated,and that includesEmergency SafetyShowers. The main designchanges with the modelsin this range concern theouter casing which is nowrotationally moulded fromunbreakable whitepolyethylene rather thanfabricated from grey uPVCor polypropylene tube. Inaddition to improvedimpact resistance, thisimproves visibility, so thatthe shower stands out ina pipework environment.
The Shower and BodySpray operatingmechanism has also beenre-designed. Previoustriangular or circular pullhandles have beenreplaced with a moreeasily operated panic bar,which incorporates a testhandle. The test handle isparticularly useful whenthe unit has to be testedweekly - as stipulated inthe American NationalStandard (ANSI Z358.11998). In addition to anew style stainless steelfoot treadle, the unit hasa Light Box fitted to thetop as standard. Whenthe optional light is fittedthis illuminates the signsfor greater visibility ondull days and at night. Diffusers also shine lightdownwards to ensure theoperating mechanism andshower area are well lit atall times.
A further developmentwithin the range is thenew styleEyebath/FacewashFountain. This moderniseddesign includes innovativefeatures such as enhancedgraphics, integralshatterproof mirror andraised splashguard.
The modular design thatmade our previous rangeof Heated Outdoor Unitsso successful has beenretained to ensure easyaccess to the valves. Thispermits easy removal andreplacement of anymodule if it becomesdamaged.

The Temperature Controlled(TC) Emergency Safety Showeris intended for outdoor usewhere the water requiresheating. It has a 300 litre tankand 3kW heater and regardlessof the ambient temperaturewill deliver tepid water for theANSI recommended minimumperiod of 15 minutes. Waterfrom the heated tank is mixedwith the mains fed cold supplythrough a high flow ratethermostatically controlledvalve to maintain atemperature of between 25 -35°C.
In addition to delivering waterat the required temperaturethrough its own shower head,the TC unit can also supplyheated water to otherEmergency Showers via asecond outlet from the tank.This means that severalshowers within an area canmeet the temperature andduration criteria stipulated inthe ANSI standard.
The standard unitconsists of aheated tank,overhead showerand side mountedeyebath with protectivelid. If preferred, it can besupplied without theeyebath.
Alternatively, the unit can besupplied without the showeror eyebath and simply used tosupply heated water to othershower and eyebath units.
