VWR® Safety Shower Testing Unit

Laboratory safety showers should be tested once a month to check the functionality and the required water flow rate of 60 L/min. for emergency instances. This mobile test unit provides a very convenient and easy solution to test both body safety showers and handheld eye showers.

• Transparent PVC water reservoir on castors
• 110 litre capacity
• Built-in suction pump (230 V) and IP 45 protected power switch
• Drain hose (2 m) to empty the water reservoir
• Separate mounts for drain hose and power cord

Placed centrally under the body safety shower, the large funnel can be extended to a height of 2,30 metres, while the smaller funnel is designed to collect the water from handheld eye showers (minimum flow rate: 6 L/min). The collected water amount can be read on the water reservoir scale from 0 to 110 litres. The built-in electrical suction pump will empty the reservoir in a very short time. According to EN 15154-1,2:2006 the water flow rate must be at least 60 L/min. for plumbed-in body showers and 6 L/min. for plumbed-in eye wash units.
