Note: | Supplemental flushing equipment cannot be used in place of required emergency showers or eyewashes. |
(1) You must make sure hand-held drench hoses deliver at least 3.0 gallons (11.4 liters) of water per minute for fifteen minutes or more.
Note: | Why use a drench hose? A drench hose is useful when: |
| • The spill is small and does not require an emergency shower |
| • Used with a shower for local rinsing, particularly on the lower extremities. |
(2) You must make sure personal eyewash equipment delivers only clean water or other medically approved eye flushing solutions.
