DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

SO WHY TEPID?

ANSI Z358.1-2014 requires that the water delivered to an emergency plumbing

fixture should be TEPID (Appendix B6). Tepid water is NOT cold water!

• The standard has set the suitable temperature range as being in between 60 F and 100 F. Cold water may provide immediate relief, but prolonged exposure to cold water can result in shock. (a)

• Tepid water promotes fixture usage. Users need to be able to remain in an emergency fixture for the entire 15 minutes called for by the codes that have adopted ANSI Z358.1 (UPC and IPC), as well as by the MSDS sheets of a product.

• Users are more likely to use an emergency fixture knowing that tepid water is being supplied rather than straight cold water.

• Ground water is not the answer as the average ground water across the US is not even tepid. Even in those areas where the average ground water temperature is tepid, remember that this is an average. • The best solution is to heat the water and send it through an emergency-mixing valve to insure that

you have a year-round tepid solution.

• “Cold Water” is defined as being any water temperature under 70 degrees. These cool and cold-water temperatures are enough to drop your body’s core temperature significantly. (b)

• 60-70 F is still considered a dangerous water temperature since controlling your breathing becomes progressively more difficult as water temperature falls toward 60 F. (c)

• Air temperature has nothing to do with cold water safety. (a) - ANSI Z358.1-2014

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

LEGIONELLA CONCERNS

• Many if not most cases of nosocomial (hospital acquired) Legionnaires' disease go undetected, and most detected cases are not reported. Therefore, many health care professionals have the false impression that Legionnaires' disease is rare, but it is actually widespread.

• Legionnaires' disease is contracted by inhaling water droplets containing Legionella.

• The hot-water system can be a perfect breeding habitat for Legionella. Legionella grow best in water at 95°F to 115°F. Scale and biofilm within tanks, pipes and fixtures add to the problem by providing food and protection for Legionella.

STINGRAY SYSTEMS MODEL SV160

EMERGENCY MIXING VALVE

ANSI Z358.1-2014 and EXCEEDS ASSE 1071

COLD WATER BYPASS RATE of 45 GPM @ 30 psi

Patented Design

The Model SV160’s thermostatic element responds to changes in incoming hot and cold water temperatures to provide comfortable, tempered water. Cartridge design allows ease of maintenance and replacement while the valve is still on the supply line.

Dual Protection

The Model SV160’s twin thermostatic elements respond independently to incoming hot and cold water temperatures and provide backup protection against element failure. In the event one of the thermostatic elements should fail, the Model SV160 will continue to deliver tempered water to the emergency fixtures.

Should the cold water supply to the valve fail, the Model SV160 will shut-off all incoming hot water.

In the event the thermostatic element fails, or the hot water supply is interrupt-ed, the SV160 will still deliver enough cold water to the emergency eye/face wash equipment to satisfy ANSI’s minimum flow rate safety standard of 40 gpm for two drench showers.

High-Low Flow Capability

High-low flow capability allows the valve to deliver safe, tempered water to a variety of emergency fixtures supplied by the same water line.
