Redcap Chemical Splash Station - Supplied with 2 Eye Wash Redcap Bottles 500ml - [RL-5996]
After eye or skin contact with acid or alkalis, it is only seconds before the pH value is significantly altered, and the corrosive damage may lead to permanent injury. Acid and alkalis must be quickly neutralised to a pH value equal to the normal level in the eye or on the skin. The use of ordinary water or 0.9 % sodium chloride will only provide a limited degree of effective dilution with an increased flushing time.
Redcap Phosphate Buffer Solution has a neutralising effect which significantly reduces the flushing time and the volume of fluid required to dilute and neutralise acid and alkali splashes*.
Quicker neutralisation, especially on the face, can relieve the distress of feeling ‘underwater’ from flushing, the first aider is also better protected from becoming a secondary victim whilst in contact with the contaminant.
The range of Redcap Phosphate Buffer Solutions, Chemical Splash Stations, and Kits, ensures there is a product perfectly suited to enable first responders to achieve this goal. Easy-to-squeeze bottles, allow the eye or skin to be irrigated easily and efficiently, reducing the risk of severe injury caused by acid, alkali, or particulate contamination.
* It is recommended to continue flushing with water or saline eye wash until medical help arrives.
Dual-purpose, HSE compliant eye wash station. Wipeable, hard-wearing ABS plastic with luminous printed instructions; effective for locating the station during a power cut.
