[Plumbing Equipment] What is plumbing equipment? What plumbing equipment includes and what plumbing accessories are classified
What is plumbing equipment
Plumbing equipment is the equipment used in drainage and heating systems and bathrooms, such as showers, bathtub fittings, valves, and so on. Plumbing equipment is a general term for many equipment. It includes many kinds of materials, which are indispensable materials in our home decoration. Among them, the major directions can be divided into five types, including pipes, valves, pipe fittings, positioning and thermal insulation. Types, if subdivided, can also be divided into many types.
What does plumbing equipment include
Gate valve, butterfly valve, flange, elbow, plumbing fittings, compensator, soft joint, plugging pipe clamp, blind Plate, head, size head, aluminum alloy ball valve, safety valve, etc.
Classification of plumbing equipment
Plumbing equipment is divided into several categories such as pipes, pipe fittings, valves, insulation, positioning, etc. It’s hard to say, there are many classifications, such as pipes, what material pipe fittings: stainless steel pipe fittings, alloy pipe fittings, carbon steel pipe fittings, Q253 pipe fittings, seamless pipe fittings, etc.
Approved valve use classification:
1. Cut-off type
Such as gate valve, globe valve, plug valve, ball valve, butterfly valve, needle valve, diaphragm valve, etc. . The cut-off valve is also called a closed-circuit valve and a globe valve, and its function is to connect or cut off the medium in the pipeline.
2. Check type
Such as check valve, check valve is also known as one-way valve or check valve, check valve is an automatic valve, its function is to prevent The medium in the pipeline will flow back, prevent the reverse rotation of the pump and the drive motor, and the leakage of the container medium. The bottom valve of the water pump suction valve also belongs to the check valve category.
3. Safety
Such as safety valve, explosion-proof valve, accident valve, etc. The function of the safety valve is to prevent the medium pressure in the pipeline or device from exceeding the specified value, so as to achieve the purpose of safety protection.
4. Adjustment type
Such as regulating valve, throttle valve and pressure reducing valve, its function is to adjust the pressure, flow and other parameters of the medium.
5. Diversion type
Such as distribution valve, three-way valve, steam trap. Its function is to distribute, separate or mix the medium in the pipeline.
6. Vacuum type
Such as vacuum ball valve, vacuum flapper valve, vacuum inflation valve, pneumatic vacuum valve, etc. Its function is in the vacuum system, the vacuum system components used to change the direction of the airflow, adjust the airflow, and cut off or connect the pipeline are called vacuum valves.
7. Special purpose type
Such as pigging valve, vent valve, drain valve, exhaust valve, filter, etc. The exhaust valve is an indispensable auxiliary component in the pipeline system, and is widely used in boilers, air conditioners, oil and gas, water supply and drainage pipelines. It is often installed at the commanding heights or elbows, etc., to remove excess gas in the pipeline, improve the efficiency of the pipeline and reduce energy consumption.
