Diphoterine® Floor Mounted Units
Some chemical exposure environments require larger-volume decontamination capacity — high-risk process areas, bulk chemical handling zones, or locations where full-body chemical splash is a realistic incident scenario. Diphoterine® floor mounted units provide high-capacity active decontamination in a self-contained, portable format that can be positioned anywhere on site.
Floor mounted DAP (Autonomous Portable Shower) units deliver a controlled flow of Diphoterine® solution for full-body decontamination without the need for a plumbed emergency shower. A full-body decontamination with Diphoterine® requires approximately 5 litres of solution and takes up to 6 minutes — compared to 900 litres and 15 minutes for a conventional emergency safety shower. This dramatic reduction in volume also eliminates the risk of hypothermia associated with cold-water emergency shower use.
Because they are free-standing and require no fixed installation, floor mounted units can be positioned in exactly the right location — adjacent to a bulk chemical transfer point, inside a refrigeration plant room, at a battery charging or processing area, or wherever a detailed risk assessment identifies the highest probability of serious chemical exposure. They can be repositioned as working practices or site layouts change.
Floor mounted Diphoterine® units are certified Class IIa medical devices, compliant with EN15154 Parts 3 and 4, and require no maintenance, no legionella management, and no heated water supply.
