Gravity-fed eyewash station

The Helios is a self-contained eyewash station that requires only 9.4 gallons of flushing fluid to deliver a continuous flow of more than 0.4 gallons per minute for a full 15 minutes. The recessed eyewash head insets on the vessel protect the nozzles and help prevent contamination buildup. To use, simply pull the tray down, and the fluid begins to flow to the nozzles immediately.

Eyewash system

The Axion MSR eyewash system has streams that are inverted so they contact the eyes at the inner corner, adjacent to the bridge of the nose. Contaminants are swept to the outer edge of the eye, where gravity takes over, running them into the eyewash bowl. This technology is available on both eyewash and shower models, including wall-mounted, pedestal and combination units.

The HALO eye/face wash covers 85 percent of the user’s face, which is more than 20 percent better protection than any other eye/face wash on the market, according to the manufacturer. It incorporates a self-draining feature, which eliminates standing water left in the unit between uses and testing.
