FAQs

What type of solution is used in the bottles?

The bottles contain sterile saline solution, which is a safe and effective choice for flushing eyes.

How often should I check the expiry date of the saline bottles?

It is recommended to check the expiry dates at least every six months and replace bottles proactively before they expire.

Can I use other brands of saline solution for refills?

While other sterile saline solutions may work, it is best to use Astroplast branded refills to ensure compatibility and sterility with the dispenser system.

Is this kit suitable for chemical splashes?

This kit is designed for general eye irritants and small particles. For significant chemical splashes, prolonged flushing with a larger volume of sterile solution or access to an emergency shower may be necessary. Consult your workplace safety officer for specific chemical incident protocols.

What are the dimensions of the dispenser?

Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's specifications for exact dimensions. The design is intended to be compact for wall mounting.

How is the dispenser mounted?

The dispenser comes with a wall-hanging bracket that needs to be securely attached to a suitable surface using appropriate fixings.

Troubleshooting

Dispenser is difficult to open.

Ensure the clip mechanism is not obstructed. Check for any debris around the opening and clean if necessary. If the clip is damaged, replace the dispenser.

Saline bottles are empty or expired.

Replace with new, sterile Astroplast refill bottles. Always check the expiry date of the saline solution before use.

Kit contents are not visible.

Ensure the dispenser is mounted at an appropriate height and that signage clearly indicates its location. Check that the clip opening is not obscured.
