708384 Horizontal Emergency Drench Shower Features
The Global Industrial 708384 is a wall-mounted, horizontally projecting emergency drench shower for overhead flushing of corrosive chemicals from the body. A pull rod opens the stay-open ball valve so water keeps flowing while the user decontaminates. Choose galvanized steel with a high-visibility yellow ABS head for general industrial and lab use, or all-stainless steel for corrosive and wash-down areas.
Meets ANSI Z358.1-2014. The galvanized model includes an ANSI identification sign.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the 708384 drench shower mounted?
It mounts horizontally from a wall so the 10 inch shower head hangs over the work area; the water supply comes through the wall. That keeps the floor clear compared with a free-standing combination unit.
What is the difference between the galvanized and stainless versions?
The 708384 uses Schedule 40 galvanized pipe, a yellow ABS shower head and a 1 inch IPS chrome-plated brass stay-open ball valve with a 1 inch NPT female inlet; it weighs 7 pounds. The 708384SS is stainless steel throughout, including the shower head and ball valve, with a DN25 supply fitting, and weighs 6 pounds.
Does the drench shower include eyewash coverage?
No. The 708384 is a body drench shower only. Where eye hazards are present, add a wall eyewash or choose a combination shower and eyewash.
