G1778, Eye/Face Wash, Wall Mounted AutoFlow™ 90° Swing-Down

G1778
Eye/Face Wash, Wall Mounted AutoFlow™ 90° Swing-Down

Application: AutoFlow™ eye/face wash for mounting on wall. Spray heads swing down from storage to operational position, activating water flow. Available in a variety of spray head configurations to minimize obstructions at a sink. Note: If unit is not installed at a sink, floor drain should be provided underneath unit to prevent accumulation of water on floor.

Spray Head Assembly: Two FS-Plus™ spray heads. Each head has a “flip top” dust cover, internal flow control and filter to remove impurities from the water flow.

Valve:1/2" IPS plug-type valve with Teflon® coated O-ring seals. Swinging head assembly down from storage to operational position opens orifice and activates water flow. Unit remains in operation until spray head assembly is returned to storage position.

Strainer: Unit is furnished with in-line strainer to protect valve and spray heads from debris in water line.

Construction: Polished chrome plated brass.

Supply: 1/2" NPT female union inlet.

Sign: ANSI-compliant identification sign.

Quality Assurance: Unit is completely assembled and water tested prior to shipment.

AVAILABLE OPTIONS
TMV G6020 thermostatic mixing valve precisely blends hot and cold water to deliver warm (tepid) water as provided by ANSI Z358.1 - 2014. Refer to Tempering Units section for complete technical and product selection information.
