E-juice lab question.

[Synsi1916]

I am almost finished assembling my lab according to and exceeding AEMSA standards all the way down to the shoe covers. I am also planning a fume hud incase of further regulations. What I am stuck on is the eye wash kit. The AEMSA entails I am required to have one and that is not a problem but it just says eye wash kit in a vague way. Does that mean I would have to use one of the large 15 minute running stand up systems that cost over $300 or will the wall mounted duel bottle set ups that are far easier on the wallet do? I just launched my company Facebook page a few days ago also TheVaporCaper. I'd love if you guys stopped by and showed some VU love too I am releasing a flavor every day. It is not quite for sale yet but I am introducing things and crossing my t's and dotting my i's like this question. I already have my license to do business ect.

I have tried to contact the AEMSA but haven't heard anything back. I am sure one of you guys would know for sure and could help. Thank you.

I used to sell eye wash equipment back in the day, and certain jobs would call for "eye wash stations" and others called for "eye wash kits" AEMSA calls for eye wash kits, which means the tabletop units would most likely suffice. To be certain, and if you intend on getting registered by them, call and ask to speak to a representative. For your own safety, you should spring for a faucet mounted unit or a wall mounted unit anyways. you can get a faucet mounted one for under $100 and it can be added to your hand washing station.
the wall mounted units are under $200 and provide constant cold water, better to be safe than sorry.

You're the man! Thanks for the advice.

I would love to be registered by them but with their fees as follows: Application fee: $500 due at acceptance of application (nonrefundable)
Monthly Dues: $758
$1500 per initial scheduled inspection. That is a large sum of money to be paying for me at this moment.

I would love to be registered and have their logo on my bottle as a token of quality. I would much rather give them my money instead of a government agency when it comes time to being regulated.

This would work and be a bit cheaper and or easier to install I would think... http://www.jjkeller.com/shop/Product/Sperian-Saline-Wall-Station-16-oz

That's what most of the petroleum distribution centers (ie tank farms for gas/diesel) use. Just as long as you have something to wash your eyes out.

I am ordering a kit like that

The one like in the link below is what we always had in school. In high school and college. So my thought on this is If it is good enough and safe enough to put in schools it should be good enough for aemsa

@Linc Williams can you help out please?

@Synsi1916 - Hi I am Linc Williams I am the secetary of the board for AEMSA. AEMSA requires an Eye Wash Kit as a min requirement - one like this - http://www.uline.com/Product/Detail...t47dhCBlVYSsvfBhdZR99xoCN2Lw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

As a note your local OSHA will dictate its one requirements - for example her is SC OSHA requires a full eye flush station so we had to go the more expensive route.


congrats on your new business!

Sorry that smacks of wtf kind of money to me. To add that to the label for little to zero oversight on their part.
