Haws Corporation was awarded the Occupational Health and Safety 2022 product of the year award in the Emergency Showers & Eyewash category for the AX16 AXION Advantage Lab Eye/Face Wash Retrofit Kit. The Model AX16, AXION Advantage® eye/face wash upgrade system is designed to replace the existing eyewash head of some standard laboratory and hose-mounted eyewash stations.
AXION Advantage Lab Eye/Face Wash Retrofit Kit
The Haws AX16 AXION Advantage eye/face wash system is designed to replace outdated, under-performing or in some cases, non-conforming installed emergency eyewashes with the medically superior AXION® MSR performance. This revolutionary inverted flow design is the only product on the market that provides a Medically Superior Response consistent with all EMT, emergency room and doctors’ office protocols by sweeping contaminants away from the vulnerable nasal cavity. Traditional eyewashes irrigate from the outside edge of the eye back toward the nose, where contaminants can then be flushed into the nasal cavity through the lacrimal punctum, nature’s ocular cavity drain. Eyewash streams provide Zero Vertical Velocity™ stream engineering with even laminar flow for enhanced comfort, stability and effectiveness. System includes the AXION MSR eye/face wash head, the necessary connecting hardware, along with a tape measure, eyewash measuring gauge and written guidelines to assure installation complies with the ANSI Z358.1 standard.
System is designed to replace the eyewash head of some standard laboratory and hose-mounted eyewash stations manufactured by Acorn®, Bradley®, Encon®, Guardian® and Speakman®.
The AXION Advantage system is ANSI compliant when installed correctly based on manufacturer guidelines and when tested against the ANSI Z358.1 checklist included with the product. The materials provided offer complete ANSI compliance tools and instructions. At the current time, ANSI does not regulate product brands, models, or the interchange of product components.
