The Haws MK81A is a specialized freeze-protected valve engineered to safeguard emergency shower and eyewash systems in cold environments. It is essential for ensuring operational readiness and preventing damage to vital first-aid equipment in industrial applications where freezing temperatures are a concern.
Key Specifications and Features:
– Freeze Protection Mechanism: A special freeze-protected valve designed to automatically drain residual water from the shower and eyewash components after use. This critical function prevents water from freezing within the system’s plumbing.
– Automatic Water Drainage: Ensures water is reliably drained from compatible combination shower/eyewash units (specifically Model 8300FP and 8300FP AXION series) immediately after closing, eliminating the risk of ice formation.
– Standard Pipe Connection: Equipped with a 1-1/4″ NPT (National Pipe Tapered) connection, allowing for straightforward and secure integration into standard industrial plumbing systems.
