Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between Sodium Chloride and pH Neutral eye wash?
Sodium Chloride (0.9%) is used for general rinsing of dust and debris, while pH Neutral solution is a phosphate buffer specifically designed to rapidly neutralize acids and alkalis that have entered the eye.
2. Why should I choose a "DUO" eye wash bottle?
The "DUO" system from B-SAFETY Plum allows you to flush both eyes simultaneously with a single bottle, which is vital because many accidents involve splashes that affect both eyes.
3. How long is the shelf life of these sterile bottles?
Most sterile eye wash bottles, such as the B-SAFETY and BartelsRieger ranges, have a shelf life of approximately 3 years if the seal remains unbroken, making them a low-maintenance safety solution.
4. Do these bottles require a special plumbing connection?
No, emergency eye wash bottles are self-contained and portable, allowing them to be placed anywhere in the lab without the need for water pipes or drainage.
