Rada introduces Ligature resistant shower range

Story

Designed specifically for installation in environments such as prisons, remand premises and mental health units, Rada’s new range of LR ligature resistant shower heads, basin fillers and controls are also vandal resistant, secure, stylish and efficient.

Rada, the commercial division of Kohler Mira, has many years experience in developing products for specific environments and these latest ligature resistant fittings will meet the need of helping negate what is a troubling development in secure environments.

Fittings can be instrumental in attempted suicide and self harm. Conscious of this, Rada has developed a range of robust fittings and controls featuring smooth, rounded profiles, no sharp edges, and safe, secure installation. These will significantly reduce the opportunities to secure a ligature around the fitting.

The LR system comprises a head and no touch sensor with automatic water flow shut off which can be pre-programmed to prevent miss-use such as flooding. The fittings are designed for use with the proven Rada Pulse control box system.

The fittings are designed to be recessed or built into the cubicle wall system and are secured from behind the wall with no exposed screws to prevent vandalism.

There are no breakable parts. The spray cartridge is tamper proof and provides an 8 litre/min water flow that is both economic yet provides a consistent and efficient water flow.

The LR system offers a shower head or a basin fill version which is supplied with a flow straightener and is supplied complete with a solenoid valve, isolator and filter.
