Is an eyewash station required for pot feeder which is for a simple water treatment for closed hydronic system? The chemical added to the pot feeder is toxic and could cause damage to eyes and skin but I feel the hazard is minimum.
 
In my opinion, any time there are chemicals involved, you need some sort of emergency washing system - whether it be a simple eye wash, a face wash, or a combo system.

It would be better for it to be there, and not be used much, then for it to not be there, and somebody gets blinded or worse and then you face a lawsuit for not providing something.

If you provide it, make sure you look at the tepid water requirements.
