Product Overview

Everything on this cart is yellow except one part: the green cover over the nozzles. Tank, frame, base and the lidded catch container all carry the same yellow finish, so at a distance the cart reads as a single bright object; up close the green cover is the only thing that is not yellow, and therefore the only thing the hand needs to find.

It is the same 30 litre gravity unit as the other carts in the range — fill, wheel, brake the castors, lift the cover — with the runoff caught in a lidded bin on the base.

Why All-Yellow

• A single block of colour – one bright mass in a grey plant is easier to spot at distance than a two-tone object, where the eye has to resolve parts.

• Consistent with hazard marking – where yellow already means "observe and take care", the cart sits inside that language rather than competing with it.

• Easy to keep clean-looking – a uniform finish across tank, base and bin means water marks and splashes read the same way everywhere; there is no colour break to draw the eye to one dirty panel.

• One colour for touch-up – a single paint code covers any chip on tank, base or bin.

The Green Cover Is the Switch

• Contrast in the opposite direction – with a yellow body, the green cover becomes the marker; with a green body, the yellow cover does the same job. Either way the control is the odd colour out.

• Pictogram at chest height – eye graphic and the two-step drawing face the approach.

• Lift to start – no lever to hunt for, no button to press with a wet hand.

30 Litres, Stated Honestly

• At a nominal 11.4 L/min eyewash flow, 30 L gives roughly two and a half minutes of flushing.

• That is a first-response duration, not the fifteen-minute facility the standard describes; measure the real figure and mark it on the cart.

• A full tank is light enough for one person to wheel between bays and to lift into a vehicle.

Construction

• 30 L yellow HDPE tank – moulded body with fill cap and carry handle.

• Green cover – eye pictogram and two-step drawing, lifts to start the flow.

• Twin nozzles – set under the cover at eye height.

• Yellow wheeled base – tubular frame, castors, side handles.

• Lidded yellow catch container – sits on the base under the nozzles.

Technical Specifications

Setting Up and Weekly Care

1. Fill the tank with clean tepid water through the top cap and close it firmly.

2. Wheel the cart to the hazard, on level ground, brake the castors.

3. Lift the green cover and check both nozzles run clear.

4. Time how long the tank lasts and mark the figure on the cart.

5. Weekly: replace the water, run the unit briefly, wipe the nozzles and cover, rinse the catch container.

6. After use: empty and rinse the container, refill the tank, close the lid and cover, return the cart to position.

Maintenance

• Weekly water change is the main task; standing water is where contamination starts.

• Monthly: check the lid and cover, nozzles, cap seal and castor brakes.

• Quarterly: sanitise and rinse the tank and container; check labels; touch up any chip on the yellow finish.

• Annually: inspect the tank moulding for crazing and the base frame for corrosion at the welds.

Standards and Compliance

ANSI Z358.1 calls for a fifteen-minute flush. A 30 L gravity cart delivers a fraction of that at eyewash flow, so it is a first-response unit that must lead to a plumbed station — measure and mark the duration, change the water weekly, keep it tepid where the standard requires it, and keep the cart within about ten seconds of the hazard with a clear approach. Collected runoff should be disposed of under the site's chemical rules.

Applications

Workshops and maintenance bays, vehicle and container areas, battery and paint points, warehouse aisles, and sites whose safety scheme uses yellow throughout.
