GBF2172 Recessed Safety Station with Drain Pan and Daylight Drain, Wall Mounted Exposed Shower Head
Application: Recessed barrier-free eye/face wash and shower
safety station with wall mounted exposed shower head and
drain pan. Stainless steel cover provides attractive appearance
and protects unit when not in use. When activated, cover
serves as pan to collect waste water and return it into unit for
drainage. Rather than connecting to building drainage system,
unit has 1-1/2" OD drain connection on front of unit for waste
water. Front drain provides for less costly installation while
facilitating regular testing of unit.
ADA Compliance: When installed at recommended
mounting heights, unit complies with ADA requirements for
accessibility by handicapped persons.

horizontal supply pipe and wall escutcheon.
Shower Valve: 1" IPS brass stay-open ball valve with stainless
steel “panic bar” actuator.
Cover/Drain Pan: 16 gauge stainless steel combination cover
and drain pan. Grasping “panic bar” handle and opening cover

position, activating water flow. While unit is in operation,
waste water is collected in drain pan and returned into cabinet
for drainage. Unit remains in operation until cover is returned
to closed position.
Eye/Face Wash Spray Head Assembly: Two FS-Plus™
spray heads mounted on supply arms. Each spray head has
individually adjustable flow control and filter to remove
impurities from water.
Eye/Face Wash Valve: 1/2" IPS brass plug-type valve with
O-ring seals. Furnished with in-line strainer to protect valve
from debris and foreign matter.
