INSTALLATION
NOTE: This unit should be connected to an uninterrupted source of potable water, with a minimum flowing
pressure of 30 PSI and a maximum static pressure of 125 PSI.
Review rough-in drawing to assure proper installation. If unit is being mounted on a wall, drill a hole in wall
38-1/2” above floor for piping eye/face wash to a supply. Be sure to leave a minimum of 6-1/2”
between center of valve and finished wall, for handle clearance when operating. Connect a water supply
to the unit (use pipe sealant on all joints) that is a 1/2” minimum uninterrupted source of potable water.
Failure to use potable water can result in emergency units producing impure or contaminated water
causing possible further injury. Make sure unit is level so that an even spray pattern will be produced by
eye/face wash.
OPERATION
The eye/face wash is activated by pushing the paddle handle forward 90 degrees. Once the unit is activated,
water will discharge from the spray outlets until the trigger bar is manually pulled back to the "Off" position.
TESTING PROGRAM
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) states that all safety emergency equipment shall be
activated on a weekly basis to flush the line and verify proper operation. Speakman Company furnishes a
testing record tag (91-0635) with each unit. On this tag the date of inspection and the inspector’s initials
should be noted.
MAINTENANCE
The valve and the eyewash are the only portions of the unit that may require maintenance. Should you need
parts to repair this unit, please reference the parts listing below for correct part numbers. Before any
maintenance is done be sure to shut the water supply off.
