The installation and location of all safety drench showers, eye and eye/face washes must comply with the
requirements of ANSI/ISEA Z358.1.
Before installation make sure that this equipment will meet the requirements of potential hazardous contaminants in
your location.
Workers who may come in contact with potentially hazardous materials should be trained regarding the placement
and proper operation of emergency equipment per ANSI/ISEA Z358.1.
Installation of this system must be completed by a qualified plumber and electrician in compliance with all national
and local codes. Compliance and conformity to drain requirements and other local codes and ordinances is the
responsibility of the installer.
This unit is to be used with clean, potable water as defined by ANSI/ISEA Z358.1. Bradley recommends the use of
water preservative with this unit. Water preservative may be purchased from various distributors; please contact your
local distributor. If algae or other containments are allowed into the tank or develop in the tank the shower may not
function properly.
Weekly Inspections
Make sure the shower and face wash fixtures are ready to be used when needed by performing regular checks
and maintenance. Weekly inspections must be conducted on all self-contained safety equipment to make sure a
suitable flushing fluid supply is present, check if fluid needs to be changed or supplemented, and to make sure the
equipment is in good operating condition. See page 13 for additional information.
Water Temperature
ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 requires tepid water. Suitable range is 60°F to 100°F (16°C to 38°C). Personal injury is possible
outside this temperature range. If ambient temperature may drop below 60°F (16°C), install a heater with a
continuous power supply. If model selected does not include tank water heater, the ambient temperature will affect
the tank temperature and must be placed in an appropriate location.
Moving the Tank
Drain the tank completely before moving. Lifting or moving a tank with water may cause damage to the unit or a loss
of stability when in motion.
To avoid product or property damage:
• Unit is designed to be installed indoors or in locations above freezing (32°F (0°C)).
• Make all water and electrical connections at temperatures above freezing (32°F (0°C)).
Bradley Safety Showers are transported within the continental United States and Canada via commercial truck. Unit
ships in two pieces (steel frame and enclosed water tank). See page 8.
WARNING Always use proper lifting techniques when moving the safety shower. Weight distribution is
unbalanced, and the product may tip over if lifted improperly. Make sure lifting equipment is
properly rated for this load. Overloading could cause serious injury or death from tip over.
Bottom Lift: Locate lifting points at base of tank enclosure or shipping pallet. Notice: Lifting eyelets on top of tank
enclosure are only for lifting the cover. Do not use to lift the entire tank enclosure.
If immediate destination of the unit is storage, refer to the Storage and Preservation Guide.
Each shower will be accompanied by document packaging that includes the installation instructions and electrical
schematics, if applicable. Store safety enclosure documents for reference.
If equipment is relocated, always perform a functional test before returning to service.
