What kind of eyewash station is considered a qualified eyewash station?
Qualified eyewash stations should meet the following standards:
1. Water flow: The eyewash should have enough water flow to quickly flush the eyes in the event of an accident. In the United States, the ANSI Z358.1 standard stipulates that the eyewash must provide a water flow of at least 0.4 liters per minute.
2. Water temperature: The water temperature should be controlled between 16 degrees Celsius and 38 degrees Celsius. This water temperature range allows people to better accept flushing when injured. Too low water temperature can cause pain due to cold and hot stimulation, while too high water temperature can cause secondary damage to the injured area.
3. Water quality: The eyewash should use harmless and non-toxic pure water to ensure that there is no danger of any chemical substances when using the eyewash.
4. Nozzle design: The nozzle should be able to spray water evenly and cover all parts of the eyes to ensure the effectiveness of flushing.
5. Operation method: The operation of the eyewash should be simple and quick, usually including manual operation and automatic start-up.
6. Location and use: The eyewash should be installed in a convenient location, and the operator should be protected as necessary to avoid being splashed by chemicals splashed by the water flow of the eyewash.
