| Attribute / Specification Field | Product Data Value |
| Manufacturer | Guardian Equipment |
| Model Number | G1779 |
| Product Type | AutoFlow™ 90° Deck-Mounted Rear Swing-Down Emergency Eye/Face Wash |
| Installation Type | Countertop/Deck Mounted (Positioned directly behind an existing lab sink basin) |
| Space-Saving Design | Unit stores vertically out of the way behind the sink faucet line. Swinging the spray arm assembly 90° forward and downward into the horizontal position automatically activates water flow over the basin. |
| Material Construction | Heavy-duty polished chrome-plated brass pipes, fittings, and arm construction embedded into a chrome-plated brass structural housing. |
| Eye/Face Wash Spray Assembly | Dual-head configuration featuring (2) FS-Plus™ spray-type outlet heads; each head includes a "flip-top" dust cover, internal self-regulating flow control, and an internal particulate filter to deliver an expanded flood of water for simultaneous face and eye rinsing. |
| Activation Valve | 1/2" IPS plug-type valve with Teflon® (PTFE) coated O-ring seals. Dropping the arm mechanically rotates the internal cylinder, opening the orifice and initiating water flow. Unit remains active until manually returned to vertical storage position. |
| In-Line Filtration | Furnished with an loose-shipped in-line Y-strainer to intercept plumbing scale, pipe shavings, and debris before they can reach the internal valve mechanism. |
| Flow Control Regulation | Integrated internal flow controls deliver a smooth, balanced stream under varying hydraulic line pressures between 30 and 90 PSI. |
| Water Supply Inlet | 1/2" NPT Female Inlet via a 1/2" IPS mounting shank. |
| Countertop Footprint | Mounts flush to the rear deck layout via matching heavy-duty locknut and sealing washer. Base features integrated anti-rotation positioning pins to prevent unit twisting. Fits counters up to 1-1/2" thick. |
| Compliance & Certifications | ANSI Z358.1-2014, SEI Certified, Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), cUPC Listed 8116 |
| Quality Assurance | Rotating assembly and fluid seals are completely pre-assembled and hydrostatically water tested prior to boxed factory shipment. |
| Included Accessories | ANSI-compliant high-visibility rigid identification sign, testing inspection tag |
| Drainage Note | If installed away from a standard sink basin infrastructure, a dedicated floor drain should be specified directly underneath the unit deployment zone to mitigate risk of standing water collection. |
