Types of valves for municipal water supply systems

Municipal water supply system core components valves: hydraulic control valves to regulate the direction of water flow, flow and pressure, to protect the system smoothly; shut-off valves used to cut off the flow of water to facilitate maintenance and emergency; anti-pollution valves to prevent the invasion of pollutants, to ensure the safety of water quality; overflow valves and pressure-reducing valves to control the water level and reduce the water pressure, respectively, to prevent damage to the equipment. The article outlines the role and importance of these key valves, emphasizing its correct selection and management of water supply systems to ensure safe and stable operation is indispensable.

Types of valves commonly used in building water supply system

This article introduces the six commonly used valves and their functions in the building water supply system: ball valves (easy to operate, open and close quickly for hot and cold water pipelines), butterfly valves (compact structure, suitable for large flow mains), globe valves (low fluid resistance, adjustable flow), check valves (to prevent backflow, to protect the pumps), regulating valves (to accurately control the flow rate) and pressure reducing valves (to reduce the pressure, to protect the safety of equipment). Engineers need to choose the right valve according to system requirements, operating characteristics and environmental factors to ensure efficient and stable operation of the system.
