Bradley wall-mounted Halo eye/face wash with pedal, steel bowl, tailpiece and P-trap, certified ANSI Z358.1-2009.

The manufacturer recommends the installation of a thermostatic valve in order to comply with ANSI Z358.1-2009 standards. A thermostatic valve keeps rinsing water at a lukewarm temperature. Rinsing water should not be too cold (for more comfort while rinsing for the minimum required rinsing time of 15 minutes) nor too hot (to avoid aggravating eye or face injuries and to avoid scalding).

Workplace safety and emergency eye and face rinsing

When an employee is exposed to contaminants affecting the eyes or face, rapid response is essential. This wall-mounted eye and face wash provides immediate access to emergency rinsing without taking up floor space. It can be activated either by the large handle or by the foot pedal, allowing hands-free use when needed. Once activated, the unit remains on until it is manually turned off, making continuous rinsing easier during an emergency.

Compliance standards and professional use

The PD19224Y model is ANSI Z358.1-2009 approved and provides a minimum flow rate greater than 3.0 GPM (11.4 L/min) at 30 PSI. It can be used in laboratories, medical environments, workshops, garages, airports, processing plants, paper mills, and other workspaces requiring compliant eye and face rinsing equipment. However, this model does not automatically control water temperature. The manufacturer therefore recommends adding a thermostatic valve to help maintain a proper flushing temperature during the minimum recommended 15-minute rinse period.
