LOCATION AND INSTALLATION
PORTA STREAM II LOCATION
The ANSI Standard Z358.1-2014 requires that:
1. The Porta Stream II shall be positioned with the
nozzle(s) no less than 33" and no greater than 53"
from the floor and 6" minimum from the wall or
nearest obstruction.
2. Eyewash units shall be in accessible locations that
require no more than 10 seconds to reach. The
eyewash shall be located on the same level as
the hazard, and the path of travel shall be free of
obstructions that may inhibit the immediate use of
the equipment. For a strong acid or a strong caustic,
the eye wash should be immediately adjacent to
the hazard.
3. Each eyewash location shall be identified with a
highly visible sign positioned so the sign is visible
within the area served by the eyewash. The area
around the eyewash shall be well lit.
4. The eyewash station must be installed in an easily
accessible location in the immediate area of
hazard to the employee.
The Porta Stream II may be placed on any level surface of
required height, such as a table or bench. Be sure to allow
for proper drainage and disposal of the flushing solution.
The unit may also be mounted on a wall or post using
the metal hanging bracket. The unit must be level for
proper operation.
INSTALLATION
At least two fasteners are required for the Porta Stream II
hanging bracket and are
not included
. The installer
must select fasteners that provide support for the
filled unit (approximately 150 lbs.) and the force of an
individual leaning on the unit when in use. The fastener
selection should also be determined by the type of
mounting surface support at that site.
