Australia offers up a wide range of challenging climatic and environmental conditions that makes safety and complying with Australian Standards very difficult. Almost half of Australia’s coastline is rated as prone to tropical cyclones (region C) and severe tropical cyclones (region D).
These regions are usually found in remote areas that are not serviced by mains water and electricity.
The Wind Region D Emergency Tank Shower and Eyewash has been developed by Spill Station to meet the needs of Australian industry in the most hostile of environments.
It is a gravity fed from a fully insulated tank so no pumps or power is required to run the shower/eyewash making it suitable for Zone I &II areas.
The frame is made from re-enforced stainless steel with tie down points located on each corner.
