15 Gallon Portable Eyewash/Drench Hose Unit
APPLICATION: Self-contained heated eyewash and/or drench hose. Unit delivers over ten gallons (37.9 liters) of water for fifteen minutes, thus complying with the provisions of ANSI Z358.1-2009 for eyewashes. Unit is heated and insulated to endure sustained low or freezing temperatures over long periods of time. Unit is fully freeze-resistant, and tempered, for both in-door and out-door environments. Unit is ideal for use where a continuous supply of potable water is not available, especially in remote plant areas, low traffic and/or low hazard areas.
TANK AND JACKET: 15 gallon stainless steel pressurized tank. Tank has built-in carrying handles, air intake fitting, pressure gauge and pressure relief valve. Tank has approximately 10 gallons (37.9 litters) usable capacity.
HEATING ELEMENT: Heating element is made of silicone rubber and is attached to the tank with a spring latch. The water temperature inside of the tank is regulated by an onboard thermostat set to 65°F. The total amp draw is 3.33A and delivers 400W of power, which allows the unit to operate to temperatures as low as -20°F.
