Know exactly what you are doing
The three zone media indication contains all the information needed to ensure precise and safe operation.
The media indications on the handle are structured according to the EN13792 and SEFA 7 standard. This means that laboratory employees immediately are able to recognize the media and observe whether it is a gas or special water faucet. This ensures safety in the laboratory and minimizes time waste.
