Acorn Engineering• Emergency showers are plumbing fixtures • Acorn is a plumbing fixture manufacturer• Commercial showers• 55+ years of experience• Use to make safety showers –

Logan showers• Design, manufacture

are all underAcorn's control

Why Specify Acorn Safety?

What makes us different? Nothing, but…”

• We’re the new kids, able to use hindsight

• What did the competition do right or wrong?

• Incorporated all the best features, standard

• Little details that go unnoticed

Hi-Vis Yellow Powder Coat• Some competitors do,

some don’t• If it’s not stainless

steel, chrome plated or plastic

• Added corrosion and environmental protection

• Most importantly -Increased location recognition in time of need

Pre-Assembly

• Not all competitors do

• All Acorn eye and eye/face wash models 100%

• Combo shower has 40-50 pieces > 1-1/2 to 2 hours

• Loop assy complete

• Acorn shower < 1 hour

In-line Strainer

• Standard on all models• Some competition

doesn’t offer all or it’s an add$$

• Pipes never flushed enough

• Removes the slightest possibility of debris failure on startup

• Our models must work first time every time.

1/2" Ball Valve Construction

• Every competitor has had a failure

• Excessive force shearing brass stem

• Excessive torque • We use a stainless steel

stem and ball• Not every competitor has

done this• Our models must work

first time, every timeValve (closed) Valve (open)

Eyewash Push Flag

• 14 ga. stainless steel• Some competitors

use plastic, cast pot metal

• Excessive force failures

• First time, every time

Dust Covers

• Required by ANSI Z358.1• Protects from airborne

contaminants• Flush fit, won’t blow

open in wind• Easy release on

activation• Some competitors use

hard/soft plastic caps• Crack & break,

stick in heat

Barrier Free

• More building codes requiring all fixtures to be ADA or BF

• Recessed wall shower systems 4”

Barrier Free

• One of the largest offerings of BF models

Antimicrobial

• All eyewash, eye/face wash, and drench hose sprayheads and plastic showerheads are manufactured with antimicrobial ABS plastic.

• An antimicrobial agent is molded into the ABS material, providing integrated protection
