Sperian’s Fendall 2000 portable, sealed-cartridge eye wash station has been designed exclusively for the company’s new sterile saline emergency eye wash solution to create a 100 per cent sterile delivery system, says Sperian. It features nozzles and tubing that remain sealed until the unit is activated. It includes an activation alarm that signals when someone has turned on the unit and is in need of help, and a self-contained waste-water containment system that captures waste water without the risk of spills, the company says. The unit works with one sterile saline cartridge that has a shelf life of up to two years, Sperian adds. www.fendall.com

It includes Preservafree Buffered Eyewash Solution, which matches the chemistry of human tears to make it soothing to the eyes, the company says. The single wall stations can accommodate either a 16-oz. or a 32-oz. eye wash bottle. www.bradleycorp.com

EyeSafe turns faucet into emergency eye wash |
|
EyeSafe faucet-mounted eye wash converts any faucet into an emergency eye wash station without interfering with normal faucet operation, the product’s manufacturer Guardian Equipment says. The EyeSafe unit can be installed at any sink, close to where accidents might occur. Outlet heads are mounted three inches apart and deliver a soft, aerated flow of water, the company says. Heads angle forward toward user and the angle can be adjusted to permit full coverage and avoid splashing. To activate the eye wash, simply pull the knob, and the water pressure keeps eye wash in operation, leaving user’s hands free, the firm explains. Guardian Equipment notes that the EyeSafe unit is intended solely as a supplemental unit to dedicated, plumbed eye wash equipment installed in the workplace. www.gesafety.com

Encon Safety Products’ Heated Aquarion adds freeze
protection to Aquarion’s original features, as it incorporates an insulating
blanket and a 120VAC internal heater
with controlled thermostat to 50° Fahrenheit (10°C), the company says.
The Heated Aquarion allows for easy installation and simple maintenance, Encon
says, adding that one person can assemble and install the entire station easily
and quickly. Once installed, the fluid cartridges, hoses and eyewash nozzles
remain accessible for verification of ready-to-use status. Encon claims
Aquarion’s PVC coated nylon shell, Thinsulate insulation and PVC liner offer
excellent thermal and moisture protection while providing high visibility to
the emergency eyewash.

Bradley Corp. has introduced a new barrier-free recessed mounted drench shower and
eyewash for areas where maximizing space is a concern including facilities such

or grasping is required to operate it. The drench shower exceeds minimum water
flow of 20 gallons per minute (GPM) at 30 pounds per square inch (PSI) and the
eyewash exceeds minimum water flow of 0.4 GPM at 30 PSI.
