Claims20
A system for emergency washing, comprising:
- a first enclosure having a downward pivoting emergency eyewash assembly, a pivoting door attached to the underside of said eyewash assembly, said first enclosure including a shutoff valve having an outlet in fluid communication with said eyewash assembly and an inlet, said first enclosure including a drain;
- an second enclosure, a thermostatically controlled mixing valve located within said second enclosure, said mixing valve including an inlet for hotter water, an inlet for colder water, and an outlet for mixed water;
- and
- a first fluid flowpath providing fluid communication from the mixing valve outlet to the shutoff valve inlet, and a second fluid flowpath providing fluid communication from the bottom of said second enclosure to the drain.

A system for emergency washing, comprising:
- a top enclosure having a locking door the protects a first enclosed volume and including a first thermostatically controlled mixing valve located in the first volume, said mixing valve including an inlet for hotter water, and inlet for colder water, and an outlet for mixed water;
- and
- a bottom cabinet located underneath said top enclosure and having a downward pivoting emergency eyewash assembly in fluid communication with said outlet, and a pivoting tray adapted and configured to collect water spraying from said eyewash assembly, said bottom enclosure including a drain receiving water from said tray.
A system for emergency washing, comprising:
- a top enclosure having a locking door the protects a first enclosed volume and including a first valve located in the first volume, said first valve including a first inlet for water, a first outlet for providing water from the inlet, and second outlet for providing water from the inlet, said first valve being actuatable between a first position placing the first inlet and first outlet in fluid communication and a second position placing the first inlet and second outlet in fluid communication;
- and
- a bottom cabinet located underneath said top enclosure and having a downward pivoting emergency eyewash assembly in fluid communication with said first outlet, and a pivoting tray adapted and configured to collect water spraying from said eyewash assembly, said bottom enclosure including a drain in fluid communication with the second outlet.
A system for emergency washing, comprising:
- an emergency eyewash assembly having an inlet(ee), and at least one outlet(ee) adapted and configured for providing an upwardly directed spray of water;
- a first enclosure having a door covering a first interior of said first enclosure,
- a thermostatically controlled mixing valve located within the first interior, said mixing valve including an inlet(mvh) for hotter water, and inlet(mvc) for colder water, and an outlet(mvo) for providing mixed water;
- a second enclosure including a second interior, said eyewash assembly being pivotally coupled to said second enclosure and pivotal between first and second positions;
- a first shutoff valve located within the second interior and having an inlet(sv1), an outlet(sv1), and an actuating member(sv1) movable to a first state permitting fluid communication from the inlet(sv1) to the outlet(sv1) and movable to a second state discouraging fluid communication from the inlet(sv1) to the outlet(sv1), the outlet(sv1) being in fluid communication with the inlet(mvh), the inlet(sv1) being in fluid communication with the outlet(mvo);
- a second shutoff valve located within the second interior and having an inlet(sv2), an outlet(sv2), and an actuating member(sv2) movable to a first state permitting fluid communication from the inlet(sv2) to the outlet(sv2) and movable to a second state discouraging fluid communication from the inlet(sv2) to the outlet(sv2), the inlet(sv2) being in fluid communication with the outlet sv1 the outlet(sv2) providing mixed water to the outlet(ee);
- and
- wherein in the first position the actuating member(sv1) and the actuating member(sv2) are each in the first state, and in the second position the actuating member(sv1) and the actuating member(sv2) are each in the second state.
