• Remote Monitoring: When emergency unit is actuated, light and horn activate and electrical signal is sent to remote monitoring location.
• Flow Switch: 1-1/4" IPS double pole, double throw flow switch for connection to monitoring system. Switch senses flow of water when either the eyewash or shower is activated. Flow switch must be installed with tee fitting in horizontal position, flow switch body in vertical position and at least 6" from closest fitting. Direction of flow is marked on switch body.
• Quality Assurance: Unit is fully assembled, wired and factory tested prior to shipment.

Application: Alarm units serve two important functions when installed in conjunction with emergency eyewash and shower equipment. First, alarms serve to alert facility personnel that an accident has occurred and that assistance to the user may be required. Second, alarms deter unintended or malicious operation of the emergency equipment. For this reason, they are advisable in schools and other areas where the possibility of vandalism is present. Alarms are activated by a flow switch that senses the movement of water in the supply line when the safety unit is activated. Once activated, the bright light flashes and the horn sounds loudly.

• Flow Switch is Designed to Activate at 2.4 Gpm & Deactivate at 2.0 Gpm.
• Flow Switch Must Be Installed Vertically in a Horizontal Pipe Run, Upstream of Unit & at Least 6" From Fitting.
