| D01 | 570-20-SH-DTS-00015 | It is requested that “Thermostatic Mixing Valve shall be provided to ensure water in correct temperature”. | Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) will not be provided. Reason: This is the wrong application for a TMV. A TMV would be used when mixing two separate supplies of hot water & cold water. In this application, there is only one common water tank (1500L capacity) which supplies water to the safety shower & eyewash unit, and the temperature of this tank is maintained by an immersion heater & a cooler.

| D02 | 570-20-SH-DTS-00015 | Request for “High level switch to be provided for to overflow when refilling the tank”. | This high level switch is not required. Reason: The water tank is provided with a mechanical automatic overflow facility, comprising of a drain pipe (routing any overflow water into shower drain sump). It is impossible for the water tank to overflow & therefore High Level switch is not offered.

1500L Tank fed safety shower - immersion heated
EXP-MH-14KS/1500
Meet EN and ANSI standards whilst protecting your workforce at
risk of contamination from hazardous substances. Ideal for cold
climates, this 1500 litre gravity fed tank shower is fully operational in
temperatures down to -35C. Featuring a self-contained tank there is
no need for a mains water supply making this the best solution for
remote locations.
The integral immersion heater and thick polyurethane insulation
maintain the temperature of the water within the overhead tank
between 15-38C. At this tepid temperature the casualty is able
to remain under the shower for the recommended 15 minutes to
decontaminate thoroughly.

Emergency Safety Showers and Eye/Face Washes for All Environments
Over 55 years of manufacturing excellence
JD Hughes fabrications, founded in 1950, were erecting pipework in the petrochemical industry when an unfortunate accident became the impetus for developing safety showers and eye washes - long before current HSE/COSHH requirements.
The products were soon in demand, and in 1968 the company began to specifically manufacture emergency shower and eye/face wash equipment. Now an international market leader and part of the Justrite Safety Group, Hughes has sites and customers across the world.

+44 (0)161 430 6618 • HUGHES-SAFETY.COM Understanding European and International Standards
There are a number of important considerations when selecting the correct safety showers and eye/face washes for your site, the first of which is to understand what is recommended and required by local, European and International standards.
The European standard EN15154 parts 2 and 5, and the internationally recognised ANSI Z358.1-2014 standard recommend performance requirements for industrial eye/face wash units and emergency safety showers. They are focused on the performance, use, installation, testing, maintenance and training of this essential safety equipment. While not legally binding, it is considered best practice to adhere to them in order to remain compliant.
It is advisable to consult the standards in their entirety before making a purchase, here we aim to provide a general overview of the main requirements for the satisfactory operation of emergency safety showers and eye/face wash units.

+44 (0)161 430 6618 • HUGHES-SAFETY.COM Water Temperature
Location
Water delivered by safety showers should be
tepid, between 16C-38C (60F-100F).
At temperatures above 38C (100F) there is the added danger of scalding and increased absorption of harmful chemicals into the skin.
Prolonged exposure to water below 16C (60F) increases the risk of thermal shock or hypothermia and prevents the casualty using the shower to decontaminate effectively for the full 15 minutes.
Adequate Water Flow
Emergency safety showers should deliver a minimum of 76 litres per minute of potable water for up to 15 minutes in the required spray pattern.
Eye/face wash units should deliver 12 litres per minute for up to 15 minutes to ensure a thorough decontamination.
Operation
Equipment must be both accessible and easy to operate, even if the victim has impaired vision.
The valve must be designed so the flushing flow remains on without the use of the operator’s hands, and goes from ‘off’ to ‘on’ in one second or less.
Hughes products are DVGW certified. Contact us to learn more.
Hughes products are manufactured to suit both hazardous and non-hazardous locations.
Emergency equipment should be installed within 10 seconds reach and on the same level as a potential hazard.
They must be situated in a prominent position, clearly visible, well-lit and free from any obstructions.
Maintenance
Emergency equipment must be visually inspected and activated weekly along with an annual service to ensure conformance to EN and ANSI standards.
A good maintenance program is essential to guarantee reliable and effective emergency equipment.
Further considerations:
Consult the Safety Datasheet to identify the chemical, and subsequent hazard.
Consult your site risk assessment to determine the specific requirements for emergency safety showers and eye washes, and whether there is an existing site standard and/or specification in place for this equipment.
Consider the location of the safety equipment;
What is the ambient temperature? Do you have sufficient drainage? Do you have a potable and reliable water supply with enough pressure? Is the shower being used in an explosive area? What are the electrical requirements for the hazardous area?

What is a self-draining shower?
After use, or following a weekly activation, the standpipe of a self-draining shower drains when the valve is closed to prevent stagnant water overheating due to solar radiation, removing the risk of scalding when next used.
The valve is situated directly above the water inlet; the bleed pipe is then fitted above this so standing water can drain to ground. This design allows the shower to be used in temperatures up to 55C, with the addition of a scald protection valve.
EXP-SD-18GS/85G

The jacketed and insulated safety showers are pre-insulated with polyurethane foam surrounded by a polyethylene impact resistant outer casing to protect the water within the pipework from the effects of direct sunlight.

A regular service and maintenance routine for emergency safety showers and eye/face washes is essential to ensure this life-saving equipment operates effectively first time, every time.
If equipment fails to function correctly or further injures an employee then significant fines, or even imprisonment, are enforceable.
European and International standards recommend an in- depth annual inspection to achieve compliance.
By their very nature, safety showers and eye/face washes possess traits that pose a risk of harmful bacteria growth. Weekly activations are recommended to flush pipes of any sediment build up and minimize the chance of stagnant water.
A regular service goes one step further - all essential parts are cleaned and disinfected, and tank fed showers are emptied and chlorinated.
Additionally, ensuring a service contract is in place will help to keep your products within the terms of your warranty.

CLARIFICATION
CLARIFICATION - Pressure Reducing Valve has not been offered. Reason is the safety shower (& eyebath) unit comprises of an overhead water tank, which is non-pressurised & provides gravity-fed water to the shower rose & eyebath nozzles. The mains water inlet connection (to the water tank) can accept a water pressure of up-to 7 bar g. If the inlet water pressure is higher than 7 bar g please inform us.

DEVIATION
DEVIATION - It is requested that “Thermostatic Mixing Valve shall be provided to ensure water in correct temperature”. Thermostatic Mixing Valve (TMV) will not be provided. Reason: This is the wrong application for a TMV. A TMV would be used when mixing two separate supplies of hot water & cold water. In this application, there is only one common water tank (1500L capacity) which supplies water to the safety shower & eyewash unit, and the temperature of this tank is maintained by an immersion heater & a cooler. TMV is not applicable.
1.00
DEVIATION
DEVIATION - Request for “High level switch to be provided for to overflow when refilling the tank”. This high level switch is not required. Reason: The water tank is provided with a mechanical automatic overflow facility, comprising of a drain pipe (routing any overflow water into shower drain sump). It is impossible for the water tank to overflow & therefore High Level switch is not offered. Please note, a Low Level Switch has been offered.

DEVIATION
DEVIATION - For the Portable Eyewash Station it is requested that there be 2 x 32 Oz eyewash bottles. Hughes are not offering eyewash bottles - Reason: The offered is a green coloured high-density polyethylene 60 litre capacity unit (model STD-68G). This unit conforms to ANSI Z358.1 standard & is offered with a waste water collection cart.

DEVIATION
DEVIATION - Portable Eyewash Unit requested to have “lockable threaded cap and wide fill opening”. The offered eyewash unit has a wide fill opening with cap - but the cap is not lockable. Reason: Manufacturer’s Standard.

Executive summary
During the course of this visit, the quality management system has demonstrated that it is supporting the achievement of the explicit intended outcomes.
The organisation’s strategy is “To be the most trusted EHS partner to distributors and customers worldwide”.
During the course of the visit, relevant quality risks and opportunities were seen to have been identified and effectively managed.
The QHSE Manager confirmed the effectiveness of the system as seen through the eyes of clients.
Particular strengths of the system identified was the openness and attitude of the employees interviewed.
Of the three non-conformances open from the last audit one was closed and two remain open for review at the next audit.
One area of weakness was identified and this were as follows;
- Calibration
The organisation is already aware that the system is not being used to full effect, and this was seen during the audit.
A number of opportunities for improvement have been identified. Although these are not followed up at future visits, they may offer significant opportunities to strengthen the system, so please do consider their merits.
Changes in the organisation since last assessment
The following changes in relation to organisation structure and key personnel involved in the certified management system were noted: The appointment of a new Operations Manager starting 27th June 2022. The appointment of a new Production Manager. The appointment of a new Supply Chain Manager.

NCR close out process
Corrective actions with respect to nonconformities raised at the last assessment have been reviewed. Actions were not found to be effectively implemented in all areas. Such areas, identified in subsequent sections of the report, will be further reviewed for closure at the next assessment. A minor nonconformity requiring attention was identified. This, along with other findings, is contained within subsequent sections of the report. A minor nonconformity relates to a single identified lapse, which in itself would not indicate a breakdown in the management system’s ability to effectively control the processes for which it was intended. It is necessary to investigate the underlying cause of any issue to determine corrective action. The proposed action will be reviewed for effective implementation at the next assessment.
Please refer to Assessment Conclusion and Recommendation section for the required submission and the defined timeline.

Management System
Details:
The current process for management review does not ensure the QMS is adequately reviewed for suitability, adequacy and effectiveness.
At present an annual review meeting is held (last conducted Jan 2020). The annual review typically concludes that the system is effective, however the impartial review informally conducted by the management team would indicate to the contrary e.g. lack of ownership of processes, documentation not reviewed and updated effectively.
Objective Evidence:
Cause
Monthly top management reviews take place. It is understood that the organisation will consider an agenda matrix, to ensure full coverage of requirements. Will follow up at the next audit. Annual Management Review is not fit-for-purpose.

Assessment Report.
Expected outcomes for accredited certification What accredited management system certification means? To achieve an organisation’s objectives related to the Expected Outcomes intended by the management systems standard, the accredited management system certification is expected to provide confidence that the organisation has a management system that conforms to the applicable requirements of the specific ISO standard.
In particular, it is to be expected that the organisation • has a system which is appropriate for its organisational context and certification scope, a defined policy appropriate for the intent of the specific management system standard and to the nature, scale and impacts of its activities, products and services over their lifecycles, is addressing risks and opportunities associated with its context and objectives; • analyses and understands customer needs and expectations, as well as the relevant statutory and regulatory requirements related to its products, processes and services; • ensures that product, process and service characteristics have been specified in order to meet customer and applicable statutory/regulatory requirements; • has determined and is managing the processes needed to achieve the Expected Outcomes intended by the management system standard; • has ensured the availability of resources necessary to support the operation and monitoring of these products, processes and services; • monitors and controls the defined product process and service characteristics; • aims to prevent nonconformities, and has systematic improvement processes in place including the addressing of complaints from interested parties; • has implemented an effective internal audit and management review process; • is monitoring, measuring, analysing, evaluating and improving the effectiveness of its management system and has implemented processes for communicating internally, as well as responding to and communicating with interested external parties.
What accredited management systems certification does not mean? It is important to recognize that management system standards define requirements for an organisation’s management system, and not the specific performance criteria that are to be achieved (such as product or service standards, environmental performance criteria etc.).
Accredited management systems certification should provide confidence in the organisation’s ability to meet its objectives related to the intent of the management system standard. A management systems audit is not a full legal compliance audit, and does not necessarily ensure ethical behaviour or that the organisation will always achieve 100% conformity and legal compliance, though this should of course be a permanent goal.
Within its scope of certification, accredited management systems certification does not imply or ensure, for example: • that the organisation is providing a superior product and service, or • that the organisation’s product and service itself is certified as meeting the requirements of an ISO (or any other) standard or specification.

Assessment Report.
Definitions of findings:
Nonconformity: Non-fulfilment of a requirement.
Major nonconformity: Nonconformity that affects the capability of the management system to achieve the intended results. Nonconformities could be classified as major in the following circumstances: • If there is a significant doubt that effective process control is in place, or that products or services will meet specified requirements; • A number of minor nonconformities associated with the same requirement or issue could demonstrate a systemic failure and thus constitute a major nonconformity.
Minor nonconformity: Nonconformity that does not affect the capability of the management system to achieve the intended results.
Opportunity for improvement: It is a statement of fact made by an assessor during an assessment, and substantiated by objective evidence, referring to a weakness or potential deficiency in a management system which if not improved may lead to nonconformity in the future. We may provide generic information about industrial best practices but no specific solution shall be provided as a part of an opportunity for improvement.

Executive summary
This audit was carried out remotely with agreement of the client and has been conducted using Information and communication technologies including Teams and WhatsApp IT methodology, which was also with full agreement and support of the client.
The planned audit objectives have been achieved, there were no connectivity issues which adversely affected the audit.
The organisation’s strategy is “To be the most trusted EHS partner to distributors and customers worldwide”.
During the course of this visit, the quality management system has demonstrated that it is generally supporting the achievement of the intended outcomes. Relevant quality risks and opportunities were seen to have been effectively managed, however following changes of personnel several issues were identified with the quality management system
A particular strengths of the system identified was the openness and attitude of the employees interviewed.
Of the four non-conformances outstanding from the last assessment, two have been successfully closed. 1 major and 6 minor NCR’s have been identified during the assessment
A one day close out visit has accordingly been booked for 27 April 2023. This will be conducted by a qualified assessor and will be used as part of your evaluation of compliance against ISO9001:2015. This is chargeable at standard rates.
A corrective action plan is required. Please submit this through the BSI Connect Portal detailing the nonconformities, the root causes, correctios and your proposed corrective actions, with responsibilities and timescales allocated. The plan is to be submitted no later than 07/03/2023. If the corrective action plan is not received by this date you may be putting your certification status at risk.

NCR close out process
Corrective actions with respect to nonconformities raised at the last assessment have been reviewed. Actions were not found to be effectively implemented in all areas. Such areas, identified in subsequent sections of the report, will be further reviewed for closure at the next assessment. Both major nonconformities and minor nonconformities requiring attention were identified. These, along with other findings, are contained within subsequent sections of the report. A minor nonconformity relates to a single identified lapse in the management system. A major nonconformity indicates a breakdown in the management system’s ability to effectively control the processes for which it was intended. The identification of a major nonconformity places the validity of certification at risk. It is necessary to investigate the underlying cause of any nonconformity to determine corrective action. The proposed action will be reviewed for effective implementation at the next assessment.
Please refer to Assessment Conclusion and Recommendation section for the required submission and the defined timeline.
Assessment objective, scope and criteria The objective of the assessment was to conduct a surveillance assessment and look for positive evidence to verify that elements of the scope of certification and the requirements of the management standard are effectively addressed by the organization’s management system; that the system is demonstrating the ability to support the achievement of statutory, regulatory and contractual requirements and the organization’s specified objectives as applicable with regard to the scope of the management standard; to confirm the ongoing achievement and applicability of the forward strategic plan and where applicable to identify potential areas for improvement of the management system.
The scope of the assessment is the documented management system with relation to the requirements of ISO9001:2015 and the defined assessment plan provided in terms of locations and areas of the system and organization to be assessed.
ISO9001:2015 Hughes management system documentation
Statutory and regulatory requirements The management system contains processes for legal and other requirements and identifies the sources to be used for researching which legal and other requirements are applicable to the organisation and its activities Company Law, Employment laws and health, safety and environmental legislation all apply
The processes involved were considered to be effective in that there are no known breaches of applicable legislation.

Details:
The current process for management review does not ensure the QMS is adequately reviewed for suitability, adequacy and effectiveness.
At present an annual review meeting is held (last conducted Jan 2020). The annual review typically concludes that the system is effective, however the impartial review informally conducted by the management team would indicate to the contrary e.g. lack of ownership of processes, documentation not reviewed and updated effectively.
Objective Evidence:
Cause
Monthly top management reviews take place. It is understood that the organization will consider an agenda matrix, to ensure full coverage of requirements. Will follow up at the next audit. Annual Management Review is not fit-for-purpose.

Assessment Report.
Expected outcomes for accredited certification What accredited management system certification means? To achieve an organization’s objectives related to the Expected Outcomes intended by the management systems standard, the accredited management system certification is expected to provide confidence that the organization has a management system that conforms to the applicable requirements of the specific ISO standard.
In particular, it is to be expected that the organization • has a system which is appropriate for its organizational context and certification scope, a defined policy appropriate for the intent of the specific management system standard and to the nature, scale and impacts of its activities, products and services over their lifecycles, is addressing risks and opportunities associated with its context and objectives; • analyses and understands customer needs and expectations, as well as the relevant statutory and regulatory requirements related to its products, processes and services; • ensures that product, process and service characteristics have been specified in order to meet customer and applicable statutory/regulatory requirements; • has determined and is managing the processes needed to achieve the Expected Outcomes intended by the management system standard; • has ensured the availability of resources necessary to support the operation and monitoring of these products, processes and services; • monitors and controls the defined product process and service characteristics; • aims to prevent nonconformities, and has systematic improvement processes in place including the addressing of complaints from interested parties; • has implemented an effective internal audit and management review process; • is monitoring, measuring, analysing, evaluating and improving the effectiveness of its management system and has implemented processes for communicating internally, as well as responding to and communicating with interested external parties.
What accredited management systems certification does not mean? It is important to recognize that management system standards define requirements for an organization’s management system, and not the specific performance criteria that are to be achieved (such as product or service standards, environmental performance criteria etc).
Accredited management systems certification should provide confidence in the organization’s ability to meet its objectives related to the intent of the management system standard. A management systems audit is not a full legal compliance audit, and does not necessarily ensure ethical behaviour or that the organization will always achieve 100% conformity and legal compliance, though this should of course be a permanent goal.
Within its scope of certification, accredited management systems certification does not imply or ensure, for example: • that the organization is providing a superior product and service, or • that the organization’s product and service itself is certified as meeting the requirements of an ISO (or any other) standard or specification.
Page 31 of 33
Assessment Report.
Definitions of findings:
Nonconformity: Non-fulfilment of a requirement.
Major nonconformity: Nonconformity that affects the capability of the management system to achieve the intended results. Nonconformities could be classified as major in the following circumstances: • If there is a significant doubt that effective process control is in place, or that products or services will meet specified requirements; • A number of minor nonconformities associated with the same requirement or issue could demonstrate a systemic failure and thus constitute a major nonconformity.
Minor nonconformity: Nonconformity that does not affect the capability of the management system to achieve the intended results.
Opportunity for improvement: It is a statement of fact made by an assessor during an assessment, and substantiated by objective evidence, referring to a weakness or potential deficiency in a management system which if not improved may lead to nonconformity in the future. We may provide generic information about industrial best practices but no specific solution shall be provided as a part of an opportunity for improvement.

The Company was founded in July 1950 by John D Hughes M B E, a qualified Mechanical Engineer and father of the present Managing Director. Activities
included the fabrication of pipe work and pressure vessels along with the erection of pipelines and structural steelwork for the chemical and petrochemical industries.
Whilst working on various sites where chemicals were being manufactured, the Company’s employees became aware of an absence of effective Emergency Shower and Eyewash facilities. This deficiency was painfully highlighted on several occasions when chemical or other burns were suffered. Such as the case when a Hughes employee, Charlie Gamble, accidentally stepped into a tank containing a sulphurous mixture, causing burns to his foot and leg. The only decontamination facility on the site was a domestic cast iron bath half full of stagnant, contaminated water!
From these observations, the Company began designing and developing a range of Emergency Safety Showers and Eyebaths long before any of the current HSE/COSHH requirements or recommendations. Initially, these Emergency Showers and Eyebaths were rather crude and basic, but with feedback and constructive criticism from users, designs were improved and refinements such as frost protection were included into unit design.
With a steady increase in demand for such equipment, J. D. Hughes Fabrications Limited was incorporated in September 1968 specifically to manufacture Emergency Shower and Eyebath equipment. The Company soon became the market leader and for the past forty years, has been the largest specialist manufacturer of this type of equipment throughout Europe.
Since taking control of the Company in the late seventies, Tony D. Hughes, son of the founder, and a qualified Mechanical Engineer, has brought his own personal touch and engineering expertise to the Company and its products. Under his direction all products have been the subject of continual design and development from both functional and aesthetic aspects.
With a philosophy of only using the very best materials around, and, building each Emergency Shower and Eye/Face wash unit to the highest achievable standard, Hughes products are widely regarded as the best available on the market with an expected life span that far exceeds that of the nearest rivals.

In 1992, accreditation to BS EN ISO 9002 was further evidence of the Company’s commitment to quality. In December 2002, this accreditation was re-certified to the rigorous certification of BS EN ISO 9001:2000.
In 2009, we achieved the Environmental Management Standard ISO 14001:2004. In 2010, we became the first manufacturing company in the North West to achieve the Investors in People-Gold Award. This followed on from the award of the IIP Standard in 2002 and develops the criteria of the original award into a new and improved standard. Hughes has always set very high standards in its personnel development, training and working conditions, therefore only a limited number of new measures had to be implemented to obtain the Investors in People Gold Accreditation.
In 2012, at our review with Investors in People, we once again achieved Gold standard. On this occasion, we also received the Investors in People Health and Wellbeing Award in recognition of Company initiatives to promote good health among staff. In the same year, we were also reassessed and retained our Environmental Management Standard ISO 14001 and the Quality Standard ISO 9001 both accredited by the British Standards Institute.
These important achievements highlight our commitment to act as a responsible employer and member of the community.
They were followed by a Queen’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2012 - Continuous Achievement. This held special significance as it came in the same year we celebrated Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee. It also marked a second success for Hughes in this prestigious award, having previously won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise International Trade in 2006.
Since the early 1990’s, J. D. Hughes Fabrications Ltd has extended its range of activities by becoming involved in other associated businesses. To complement the Portaflex Decontamination Shower, a comprehensive range of Mass Decontamination Units has been developed for the Emergency Services and the Military, as well as for use by the Chemical, Petrochemical and associated Industries.
In 2000, Hughes opened an office in Germany, Hughes Notduschen GmbH, and formed a new company The Emergency Shower Company Limited to compete with their biggest competitor, The Safety Shower Company, which Hughes successfully acquired in December 2003.
To simplify things and to avoid confusion by their customers, the Company was renamed, and in 1997 became the J. D. Hughes Group Plc, with the trading companies Hughes Safety Showers Ltd, The Emergency Shower Company Limited and Hughes Notduschen GmbH becoming wholly owned subsidiaries.
In 2006, Hughes opened a sales office/warehouse in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, near Dubai, relocating to larger premises nearby in 2010 to provide additional warehouse space and larger offices. In 2006, we also embarked on a joint venture in Canada, establishing an office to cover the North American market. In 2010, the North American business expanded by opening a sales office in Houston, Texas.

To accommodate increasing sales, we opened the new Operations Centre in 2010, close to the existing factory. This provided much needed extra manufacturing capacity, and additional office space for administration and training.
May 2016 saw Hughes Safety Showers Ltd join the Justrite Manufacturing Co. family of industrial hazardous safety and environmental spill containment products.

Test Equipment Used
The major items of test equipment used for the above tests are identified in Section 3.1.
2.1.5
Test Method
Install the EUT into the test chamber.
- Check the water temperature is even at +40°C.
- Use the test results chart in Appendix B as the precedented (general) test setup for the
temperature ramps and dwells. Note. This is being used as a baseline because it has been precedented and is reasonable, rather than a diurnal cycle taken from a test specification (which would give different results to those already obtained from a previous test).
Stabilise the chamber for 30 min at +25°C. 4. Adjust the chamber temperature from +25°C to +34°C in 1 hr 34 min. 5. Adjust the chamber temperature from +34°C to +55°C in 6 hrs. 6. Maintain +55°C for a period of 6 hours. 7. Adjust the chamber temperature from +55°C to +34°C in 6 hrs. 8. Maintain +34°C for a period of 6 hours. 9. Repeat steps 6 to 9 so that 5x cycles are completed in total. 10. After the final cycle is completed adjust the chamber temperature to +25°C in 1 hr 34 min. 11. Maintain +25°C indefinitely until EUT is removed from the chamber.
Notes.
The customer has already located 3 off TÜV thermocouples into the EUT. Add two further thermocouples to check the water temperature and local ambient. Connect all thermocouples to a Pico data logger. Customer has installed their own independently logging thermocouples. TÜV can remove the top lid (retained by 4 off screws). This is the filling point. Pump 1500 litres of water into the tank at +40°C. The customer advised the fill level for 1500 litres. This is a depth measured to the surface of
the water from the outside of the tank top between 80mm – 100mm.
There is a side overfill outlet (which can be connected to a drain pipe, if required). The EUT can be moved with a fork lift truck when it is half full (750 l) or full (1500 l).

Please note the following in relation to the data attached:
Time the sensors were programmed to UK time UAE was +3 hours ahead Ambient sensors started logging 10 days before the water sensors due to a delay in getting them fitted Internal Ambient Sensor is monitoring ambient temperature inside the tank under the lid Low water sensor is approx. 30CM from the bottom of the tank High water sensor is approx. 30CM from the top of the water level - distributed to ensure any difference in high or low water temps - the difference is +/- 0.077 of a degree on average which is negligible.
The tank was moved 20M and subsequently topped up with 6 litres of water on the 3rd of August after a small loss during movement.

Hughes Zero Power Cooler®
Designed in collaboration with
TS Chiller ZPC
Award winning cooling option for emergency tank showers to
temper the water within the tank in hot ambient climates, without
the need for power!
EN15154 and ANSI Z358.1-2014 standards state that water
delivered by a safety shower should be tepid. In extreme
hot climates solar radiation can heat water within the tank to
dangerous levels. The Hughes Zero Power Cooler, designed
in collaboration with Celantel, uses the night time ambient
temperature to maintain the daytime temperature of the water,
ensuring the delivery of safe and tepid water.
• Perfect for remote locations, no power or electricity required • Maintenance free - no moving parts means expensive service
options are a thing of the past
• Environmentally friendly • Retrofittable to your existing Hughes tank showers

Frequently Asked Questions
Hughes Zero Power Cooler® for Emergency Tank Showers
As this is the world’s first zero power cooling system you may have some questions.
Some of the most frequently asked are answered here, however if you would like to
discuss anything in more detail please don’t hesitate to contact Hughes on
+44 (0)161 430 6618 or via sales@hughes-safety.com
Why would I choose the Zero Power Cooling System rather than one of the existing chillers? Passive cooling of your emergency tank shower requires no electricity to work; if you have a remote location or area that does not have suitable power then our Zero Power Cooling System is ideal. A table comparing our Flameproof Chiller, Non-Flameproof Chiller and the Zero Power Cooling System can be viewed on our website.
How does it work? During the cooler night-time ambient temperatures, the convection process of the passive cooling system draws heat out of the stored water in the tank and reduces the water temperature to safe working limits. During the daytime, the external exchanger is heated by solar radiation and the coolant no longer circulates. This causes the coolant in the system to stratify, hot water stays to the top and cooler water remains lower down preventing the water in the tank heating up.
In what locations has it been tested? The cooling system has been tested in the UAE during the summer months where temperatures reached up to 55°C during the day and 35°C at night. There are also units currently in use in Saudi Arabia and Oman.
What temperature range will the system maintain? Testing has proven that the unit will maintain a water temperature of 2°C higher than the average night-time temperature. For example, if your average night-time temperature is 32°C in the summer the water in the tank shower will be maintained at or below 34°C. (ANSI Z358.1-2014 stipulates water should be maintained between 16-38°C)
Do you have valid results available to view? TUV, an independent laboratory based in Italy and the UK, have performed extensive tests on the Zero Power Cooling System, a summary of the results can be seen below. A copy of the full TUV test report can be found on our website.

What type of locations is this suitable for? The system is designed for use outdoors and in both hazardous and non-hazardous areas.
Can it be retrofitted to an existing Hughes emergency tank shower? If so, which models? Any of our 1500 litre and 1200 litre emergency tank showers can be retrofitted to accept the cooling system. (EXP-J-14K/1500K; EXP-J-14K/1500KS; EXP-J-14K/1200K; EXP-J-14K/1200KS)
When retrofitting, is it easy for me to install or do you offer an installation service? A retrofit kit and instructions are provided allowing your engineers to fit the Zero Power Cooling System to our emergency tank showers on site. Hughes can offer further support where needed - please contact our sales team for more information.
What are the maintenance requirements? No maintenance is necessary, it is completely sealed and requires no spare parts.
Will it work for my site if the ambient night-time temperature does not drop below 38°C? Will the water available in the day still be tepid? If your location has temperatures consistently above the 38°C average at night, please contact our sales team for the best solution for your requirements.
What are the effects of black bulb temperatures or solar radiation on the cooling system? Where there is direct sunlight and solar radiation in the daytime, the cooling system is designed to benefit from this. There is a positive effect in the daytime in creating hot water at the top of the cooling system (on the external exchanger) as the hot water stratifies leaving the cooler water in the lower (internal) cooling exchanger.
The cooling cycle is not affected since it takes place during the evening/night-time when solar radiation is limited or zero. During the night phase, the temperature differential helps create the flow inside the cooling system to start the cooling process. An example of this can be seen on our website in the ‘How it works’ animation.
Can the cooling system be used where there are higher PPM chlorine levels? Yes, in this instance, the internal stainless steel exchanger can be coated with a chlorinated rubber coating that is suitable for use with safety showers with no risk of contamination of the water in the tank.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hughes Zero Power Cooler® for Emergency Tank Showers
What happens when the shower is tested and potentially hotter water is introduced into the system? Please see the example below. The impact has been calculated based on 150 litres of water (10% of the volume) which equates to 2 minutes of shower use - this is more than what would be used for normal weekly testing.
Using an extreme example where the water temperature is 36°C; in this condition, if 150 litres of the 1500 litre total is replaced with the same quantity of water at 50°C the result will be 36°C + 50 x 0.1 = 36.5°C (remaining within the tepid water requirements). Please also note that this example is during the hottest months, the remainder of the year would allow for lower water temperatures in our tank showers. As such, there are no issues when the testing is performed once a week or if the shower is tested for a longer duration.
What is the lifespan of the cooling system? The cooling system is constructed to specifications where a design life of 20-25 years is required. A 2 year warranty is offered on the system as standard.
What happens when the emergency tank shower is used for the full 15 minutes and needs refilling? Upon any emergency activation of a safety shower, we recommend that the shower is inspected and recommissioned before it is used again. Once the cooler water in the system has been depleted it will need to be replaced with fresh potable water before it can be used again. During the peak summer months, water inlet temperatures can reach above 40°C. where this is the case please refer to the commissioning times matrix on the previous page.

File: ZPC Test Site - Saudi Aramco.pdf
TEST SITE: SAUDI ARAMCO - KHURAIS, KSA
INSTALLATION OF 1500L GRAVITY FED EMERGENCY TANK SHOWER WITH ZERO POWER COOLING SYSTEM
- Background
Hughes Safety Showers UK (Hughes) installed and commissioned the world’s first zero power cooling system (ZPC) for emergency tank showers at Saudi Aramco in Khurais, an oil field located 300km Southeast of Riyadh. This site produces 1.5 million barrels of oil per day1. Hughes, a UK based manufacturer of emergency safety showers for over 50 years, were excited to be given the opportunity to collaborate with Saudi Aramco in testing and showcasing the new zero power cooling system for their emergency tank showers.
Emergency tank showers are essential in areas where incoming water feeds are unreliable or suffer from solar radiation that can heat water to levels above the safe limits required to supply emergency safety showers. The internationally recognised ANSI Z358.1 standard stipulates the water supplied to emergency safety showers should be tepid, between 16 C and 38 C. Cooling water within tank showers requires chiller systems to maintain water at a set point no matter where or when they are used. They provide potable water at a safe temperature to ensure no further harm is inflicted upon the casualty on activation of the safety shower.

- Test overview
An emergency tank shower (EXP-J-14KS/1500) fitted with the zero-power cooling system was installed at the Aramco site in Khurais, KSA. The unit was exposed to ambient daytime temperatures exceeding 50 C.
The shower was situated in an area exposed to sunlight from all sides, all day, without any shade. No power was supplied to the unit and there was no water connection to the tank shower.
1500 litres of water was supplied to the tank shower via a hose. The supplied water temperature exceeded 41 C from the site’s water main.
The insulation of the tank system combined with the cooling system maintains water at temperatures below the required limits of ANSI Z358.1 (less than 38 C).
The commissioning period for the tank shower unit (the time needed before the water is at a safe temperature) was expected to be 24-36 hours.
Saudi Aramco permits were obtained, and site personnel were present during the installation of the equipment and the visit to download readings from the test dataloggers.
The products used are all suitable for use in hazardous area or zones – the cooler has no moving or electrical parts.

6. Working Principle of the Tank Shower and Zero Power Cooling System
EXP-J-14KS/1500 - 1500 litre gravity fed emergency tank shower with a stainless-steel frame
The tank of the EXP-J-14KS/1500 delivers water to the shower using gravity. The tank is located above the shower unit and will exceed the minimum delivery volume and time needed to ensure a thorough decontamination and meet ANSI Z358.1 requirements. The stainless-steel frame is structurally tested to withstand earthquakes and the weight of the water. The tank has insulation as part of its design to help maintain water temperatures. More information on the EXP-J-14KS/1500 can be found in the appendices.
ZPC - Integrated into the emergency tank shower (Patent Pending)
The ZPC cooling system uses internal and external exchangers to cool the water. It works by using lower night-time temperatures and a convection process to transfer heat out of the water tank into the air. The ZPC prevents the tank water from heating in the daytime sun by stratifying the hotter water to the top of the system allowing the cooler water to remain in the tank.
A video showing how the ZPC works can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/NGDQdXeZ4oM
More information on the ZPC can be found in the appendices.
TUV testing
A third party test report from TUV is available highlighting the testing and data of the zero power cooling system.
- Standards and Tepid Water
ANSI Z358.1-2014
ANSI states that tepid, potable water should be used when supplying emergency safety shower and eye/face wash equipment. It defines tepid water as temperatures between 16-38 C (60-100 F).
Tepid water needs to be delivered to the user for 15 minutes to ensure there is adequate showering for the user.
A minimum of: 76 litres per minute are needed for the shower and 12 litres per minute for the eye/face wash unit.
Emergency safety showers should be located so that they can be reached within 10 seconds of the hazard.
- Conclusion
Positive results were gained following the tests at Saudi Aramco’s site in Khurais. The test unit demonstrates the effectiveness of the Zero Power Cooling system when installed on the gravity fed tank shower. After just 16 hours the water temperature inside the tank was at a safe enough level to be used for the emergency safety shower. The peak daytime temperatures of nearly 55 C showed that the test unit was able to withstand the high ambient temperatures of the region. The unit successfully maintained the water temperatures well within the required ANSI Z.358.1 tepid water range for emergency safety showers. This was achieved without the need of a power source making it ideal for any location where there is a requirement for a safety shower.
