Curtain Booth Type Emergency Shower & Eyewash
A Curtain Booth Type Emergency Shower & Eyewash is a safety device designed to provide immediate emergency decontamination for individuals who have come into contact with hazardous substances.
It is typically used in industrial settings, laboratories, and other workplaces where the risk of chemical spills or exposure to hazardous materials is present.
Here’s a breakdown of the components and their functions:
- Emergency Shower: The emergency shower is a large overhead showerhead that delivers a significant volume of water at a controlled flow rate. It is designed to quickly rinse off the entire body, including the head and face, to remove any contaminants or chemicals that may be present on the skin or clothing. The shower is activated by pulling a handle or cord located within easy reach of the individual in need.
- Eyewash Station: The eyewash station consists of one or more nozzles that deliver a gentle flow of water to rinse the eyes. It is specifically designed to provide immediate relief and flushing of the eyes in case of chemical splashes or other eye irritants. The eyewash is activated by pushing a handle or lever that opens the flow of water.
- Curtain Booth: The curtain booth surrounds the emergency shower and eyewash station to provide privacy and contain the water during the decontamination process. It typically consists of transparent curtains or walls that allow for visibility while ensuring that the water does not spread beyond the designated area. The booth helps prevent contamination of the surrounding environment and directs the water to a drain system for proper disposal.
Curtain Booth Type Emergency Shower & Eyewash units are an essential safety feature in workplaces where there is a risk of exposure to hazardous substances.
They enable individuals to quickly access and utilize emergency decontamination measures, reducing the potential for injury or further harm in the event of a chemical incident.
