12、358.1-2009) This revision updates ANSI Z358.1-2004 and was prepared by the Emergency Eyewash and Shower Group of the International Safety Equipment Association, whose members are thoroughly knowledgeable in the design, installation, and use of this important safety equipment. Current members of the
13、Group include: Acorn Safety, H.L. Bouton Co., Inc., Bradley Corporation, Encon Safety Products, FSI International, Guardian Equipment, Haws Corporation, Prevor, Inc., Speakman Company, Sperian Protection, and Therm-Omega-Tech. Significant changes to the 2004 version of the standard are reflected in
14、this document, including clarification of certification procedures to focus on delivery of flushing fluid patterns that will allow for freedom in designing compliant equipment and incorporation of certification language for self-contained eye/face washes. The criteria for personal washes have been e
15、xpanded to ensure that they meet any applicable regulatory requirements. Additionally, illustrations have been updated to reflect design configurations that are known to meet the criteria in standard. Suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent to the ISEA, 1901

Scope This standard establishes minimum performance and use requirements for eyewash and shower equipment for the emergency treatment of the eyes or body of a person who has been exposed
30、to hazardous materials. It covers the following types of equipment: emergency showers, eyewashes, eye/face washes, and combination units. This standard also includes performance and use requirements for personal wash units and drench hoses, which are considered supplemental to emergency eyewash and
31、shower equipment. 2. Purpose This standard is intended to provide uniform minimum requirements for the performance, use, installation, test procedures, maintenance and training of emergency eyewash and shower equipment. 3. Definitions For the purpose of this standard, the following terms apply as de
32、fined: certified: A system whereby a certification organization determines that a manufacturer has demonstrated the ability to produce a product that complies with the requirements of this standard, authorizes the manufacturer to use a label on listed products that comply with the requirements of th
33、is standard, and establishes a follow-up program conducted by the certification organization as a check on the methods the manufacturer uses to determine continued compliance of labeled and listed products with the requirements of this standard. certification organization: An independent third party
34、 organization that determines product compliance with the requirements of this standard with a labeling/listing/follow-up program. combination unit: An interconnected assembly of emergency equipment supplied by a single source of flushing fluid. drench hose: A supplemental device consisting of a fle
35、xible hose connected to a flushing fluid supply and used to provide fluid to irrigate and flush face and body areas. emergency shower: A device specifically designed and intended to deliver flushing fluid in sufficient volume to cause that fluid to cascade over the entire body. eye/face wash: A devi
36、ce used to provide fluid to irrigate and flush both the face and the eyes simultaneously. eyewash: A device used to provide fluid to irrigate and flush the eyes. flow pressure: The pressure in the water supply pipe near the water outlet while the faucet or outlet is fully open and flowing. flushing
37、fluid: Potable water, preserved water, preserved buffered saline solution or other medically acceptable solution manufactured and labeled in accordance with applicable government regulations. flushing fluid column: The dispersion pattern of flushing fluid which is created by an emergency shower and
38、meets the standards prescribed coverage requirements. This pattern can be achieved by a variety of design configurations. freeze protected equipment: Equipment designed to allow the emergency device to operate under freezing conditions. freeze protection: A means to protect flushing fluid in an appa
39、ratus from freezing and rendering it inoperable. This can be achieved through several means including mechanical valves and electrical heat tracing. hazardous material: Any substance or compound that has the capability of producing Copyright Industrial Safety Equipment Association Provided by IHS un

43、evice connected to the valve to facilitate its operation. 4. Emergency Showers (See Illustrations 1, 2, 3) 4.1 Performance of Emergency Showers 4.1.1 A means shall be provided to ensure that a controlled flow of flushing fluid is provided at a velocity low enough to be non-injurious to the user. 4.1
44、.2 Emergency showers shall be capable of delivering flushing fluid at a minimum of 75.7 liters per minute (20 gpm) for a minimum of 15 minutes. If shut off valves are installed in the supply line for maintenance purposes, provisions shall be made to prevent unauthorized shut off. 4.1.3 Emergency sho
45、wers shall provide a flushing fluid column that is at least 208.3 cm (82 in.) and not more that 243.8 cm (96 in.) in height from the surface on which the user stands. 4.1.4 The spray pattern shall have a minimum diameter of 50.8 cm (20 in.) at 152.4 cm (60 in.) above the surface on which the user st
46、ands, and the center of the spray pattern shall be located at least 40.6 cm (16 in.) from any obstruction. The flushing fluid shall be substantially dispersed throughout the pattern. 4.1.5 Emergency showers shall be constructed of materials that will not corrode in the presence of the flushing fluid
47、. Stored flushing fluid shall be protected against airborne contaminants. 4.2 Performance of Control Valve The valve shall remain open without the use of the operators hands until intentionally closed. The valve shall be simple to operate and shall go from “off“ to “on“ in 1 second or less. The valv
48、e shall be resistant to corrosion. Manual or automatic actuators shall be easy to locate and readily accessible to the user. Valve actuators shall be located not more than 173.3 cm (69 in.) above the level on which the user stands. 4.3 Emergency Shower Enclosures If used, enclosures shall provide for a minimum unobstructed area of 86.4 cm (34 in.) in diameter. 4.4 Testing Procedures for Certification 4.4.1 Plumbed Emergency Showers Plumbed emergency showers shall be certified as follows: (1) Connect a flowmeter to the unit to be tested or provide other means of measuring flushing fl
