Haws AX17 Freeze-Protected AXION® MSR Emergency Shower & Eye/Face Wash Retrofit Kit
Model AX17 Description
The Haws AX17 Freeze-Protected AXION® MSR Emergency Shower & Eye/Face Wash Retrofit Kit upgrades existing self-draining emergency equipment with advanced eye/face wash and showerhead technology. The system is designed to replace the eyewash and showerhead of Haws fixtures, as well as most existing freeze-protected emergency fixtures manufactured by Acorn®, Bradley®, Encon®, and Guardian®. Compatibility depends on the existing fixture’s connections, dimensions, and self-draining configuration.
The AXION® MSR eye/face wash head uses inverted directional laminar flow to sweep contaminants away from the vulnerable nasal cavity. The ABS plastic drench showerhead features a hydrodynamic design that distributes water evenly throughout the spray footprint. This combination addresses common performance concerns, including uneven shower coverage and eyewash streams that flow too high, too low, or uncomfortably.
Designed for compatible freeze-protected installations, the AX17 features connection plumbing that avoids trapping water during self-draining. Included installation tools and compliance information help installers evaluate the upgraded fixture and verify its performance after installation.
Key Features
- Multi-brand retrofit compatibility: Designed to replace eyewash and showerheads on Haws and most existing freeze-protected emergency fixtures from Acorn®, Bradley®, Encon®, and Guardian®.
- AXION® MSR eye/face wash technology: Inverted directional laminar flow sweeps contaminants away from the nasal cavity while providing flushing coverage for the eyes and face.
- Uniform shower distribution: The hydrodynamic ABS plastic showerhead distributes water evenly throughout the shower spray footprint.
- Self-draining connection design: Plumbing configurations are designed to avoid retaining water after use in compatible self-draining installations.
- Multiple eyewash connection options: Accommodates 1/4-inch NPSM male, 3/8-inch NPSM male or female, and 1/2-inch NPSM male or female connections using the applicable installation configuration.
- Overhead shower compatibility: Supports retrofit installation on overhead showers with a 1-inch NPT male connection.
- Stainless steel connecting hardware: Supplied hardware supports installation of the retrofit components.
- Compliance verification tools: Includes an ANSI eyewash gauge, tape measure, installation instructions, and an ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 checklist for evaluating the completed installation.

Compatibility and Installation Considerations
Before ordering, confirm the existing equipment's connection sizes, mounting dimensions, and drainage arrangement. The AX17 upgrades compatible emergency fixtures; freeze protection depends on the existing system and proper installation of the self-draining components. Install according to Haws instructions, then fully test the upgraded equipment against the supplied ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 checklist to verify compliance.
