IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR SPECIFICATION OF EYE WASHES AND
SAFETY SHOWERS
Please read the following information carefully before
specifying eye wash and safety shower equipment.
The New Zealand laboratory standard calls for a safety shower
and eye wash in every laboratory where hazardous substances are
used.
No one working with hazardous materials should be more than 10
metres away from a safety shower and eye wash.
These can be supported by, but not replaced with, a
supplementary hand held trigger spray. The definition of what
constitutes an eye wash and trigger spray differ in certain
markets around the world, which is why the Carlos Arboles web
site and catalogues refer to hand held trigger sprays as eye
washes.
For the purpose of the New Zealand market, these items are not
classed as eye washes, but as supplementary hand held trigger
sprays.
It is very important to note the definition given to an eye wash
and safety shower in the New Zealand Standard. “The safety
shower and eye wash or eye/face wash facility shall be capable
of operation so that water flow remains constant without
requiring the use of the operators hands.” This effectively
rules out trigger sprays and squeeze bottles for this
application.
