Although the Fendall Porta Stream III is designed to operate under extremely cold conditions (to -32º F or -18º C), you will
get best operational efficiency and easier maintenance if you place the unit, safety considerations permitting, where it is
protected from severe wind combined with subfreezing temperatures. Therefore, the Fendall Porta Stream III should be:
1. Located in shelter, if possible.
2. Located with the back of the unit towards prevailing winds.
3. Protected from direct sunlight during summer months.
1. The insulated jacket must always be in place when the Fendall Porta Stream III unit is in operation.
2. In case of power failure, the Fendall Porta Stream III should be protected from freezing to protect against permanent unit
damage or possible leaks.
Fill the Porta Stream III
Self-contained units provide options for the type of flushing fluids used in the unit. A buffered isotonic solution may be less
irritating to the eye when used for a 15-minute flush. Tap water may contain other irritating contaminants, including rust
and chlorine, that can further aggravate already injured or compromised eyes. Sperian recommends the use of Sperian
Saline Concentrate, Sperian Saline Solution, or Sperian Water Additive because extensive lab research provides solid
documentation that flushing with ordinary tap water for extended periods of time, such as the 15 minutes recommended
by the ANSI Standard, may damage corneal cells.
Sperian Saline Solution is a buffered, preserved, saline solution that is carefully formulated to the following criteria:
1. Buffered to the same pH balance of the human eye (7.4) which is especially important in chemical splashes where the eyes' pH
level has been disrupted.
2. Compounded to maintain its pH of 7.4 during all stages of use, including storage.
3. Purified to eliminate contaminants and chlorine.
Sperian Saline Concentrate Use
Sperian Saline Concentrate is recommended for use with the Fendall Porta Stream III unit for convenient, on-site
preparation of a buffered, preserved, saline solution. Depending on model purchased, Sperian Saline Concentrate may be
included or may be purchased through your safety supply distributor.
Mixing Instructions:
Sperian Saline Concentrate is formulated to be mixed with potable drinking water, in a ratio of 10 parts water to one part
Sperian Saline Concentrate (#32-000513). To prepare the 16 gallons (61 liters) of solution required to fill the Fendall
Porta Stream III, you will need 14.5 gallons (55 liters) of water to mix with the 180 ounces (5.3 liters) of Sperian Saline
Concentrate. For best results use filtered water. If filtered water is not available, use potable water. The solution may be
mixed directly in the Fendall Porta Stream III unit. For best results, mix in an area which is clean and free of airborne
particles. Do not add any product or material to the solution of Sperian Saline Concentrate and water. (See
"Warning," page 1.) Premixed Sperian Saline Solution is available in one gallon (3.8 liters) containers for filling the Fendall
Porta Stream III, (#32-000502).
Disconnect the power source. If using the wall bracket mount, remove the unit from the wall bracket before filling.

At least two fasteners are required for the Fendall Porta Stream III hanging bracket and are
not included. The installer must select fasteners that provide support for the filled unit
(approximately 150 lbs. or 70 kg), plus the force of an individual leaning on the unit when
in use. The fastener selection should also be determined by the type of mounting surface
support at that site. (See "Warning" on page 1.)
When installing the Fendall Porta Stream III hanging bracket, the horizontal holes in the
bracket must be 52-1/2" - 64-1/2" (133 cm -164 cm) from the floor in order to have the nozzles
positioned as required by ANSI Z358.1-2004. If using the Fluid Disposal Cart (Fendall
model #32-000511-0000), the required bracket hole height is 58" (147 cm) from the floor.
After installing the hanging bracket, hang the Fendall Porta Stream III unit by placing the
handle onto the bracket. Check the nozzle height. Place the Emergency Eyewash sign (if
included with your model) in a visible area to mark the location of the unit.
