Indestructo®Decon Shower HM7000
A. Attach water supply hose with standard garden hose fitting (not included) to
lower Brass Hose Shuto (#12). Optimum shower operation is attained when at
least 15 gpm (30-50 psi) of water is supplied to the shower inlet.
B. Turn water supply on. Lower Brass Hose Shuto (#12) should be in the “open”
position and Fan Sprayer (#9) should be in the “closed” position. It takes
approximately 1 minute to achieve full spray pattern.
C. Check aim of shower heads and use shower according to your standard operating
procedures.
D. After use, the shower should be fully decontaminated using your standard
operating procedures and in full compliance with state and federal regulations.
E. The shower should be inspected for damage or missing parts and should be
completely dry before storage.
F. Store in vinyl carry bag (#13) in moderate environmental conditions out of
direct sunlight or exposure to ozone.
Eective Spray Pattern
A. The most eective spray pattern creates a virtual wall of water by overlapping
the fan-shaped spray and keeping the spray in a vertical plane with the upright
portion of the shower.
B. All shower heads should be aimed so that the centers of the fans are at
approximately the center point of the average user’s body as they stand in the
shower.
C. The optimum spray pattern is attained when at least 15 gpm (30-50 psi) of water
is supplied to the shower inlet.
A. As with all emergency equipment you should develop an inspection program
that assures its suitability for use in an incident.
B. Program should include deploying, visually inspecting, and operating the
shower at least every 3 months. All problems should be immediately corrected.
C. Maintenance on this shower is minimal. The inspection program should reveal
any problems with quick connects or hose connections. These may include worn
or missing O-Rings, broken cam locks or leaking joints.
D. Due to the nature of the materials used in this shower, cracked pipes are very
unlikely.
E. Occasional coatings of silicone based lubricant on the quick connect surfaces
and cam locks will ensure they function smoothly.
High Winds
A. When the Indestructo Shower is being used outdoors in windy weather, it is
best to operate the shower for a short time in order to fill the lower section with
water. The weight of the water helps secure the shower to the ground.
B. When wind speeds exceed 20 mph, it may be necessary to use the enclosed
Straps (#14) and Stakes (#15) as a secondary means to secure the shower to the
ground.
Instructions for Strap Use:
C. Set shower up so that the pathway through the shower is perpendicular to the
wind.
D. Wrap straps above 45° bend on the Top Uprights (#5, #6) on both sides and feed
one end of strap through the loop at the other end. Cinch it tight above the 45°
bend.
E. Extend strap out and secure the other end to the ground using the enclosed
stake or other method
