Safety Saline Eyewash Station
Secondary Eyewash FluidsMany workplaces also need to consider making secondary eyewash stations available. Delivered in a variety of sizes, personal eyewash bottles are small and highly portable, and, therefore, readily can be made available at the site of any hazard. In fact, secondary eyewash systems can be as critical for the treatment of an injured eye as their primary counterparts. Eyewash bottles are required at the site of nuisance particles such as pollen, dust, sawdust and smoke. They also are required where very caustic substances exist. In the case of chemical or caustic eye injury, eyewash bottles provide immediate treatment en route to a primary eyewash unit and continuous irrigation on the way to medical care. Bottles containing 100 percent sterile buffered saline solution are best for rinsing injured eyes and provide a lengthy, 36-month shelf life. |
