2. Plumbing fixture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumbing_fixture

   A wall-mounted shower sensor. In public facilities, the trend is toward sensor-operated (automatic) fixtures that improve hygiene and save money. For example, sensor operated automatic-flush urinals have fewer moving parts, reduce wear, and tend to last longer than manual-flush valves. Also, they ensure fixtures are flushed only once per use.

   It must be installed in an easily accessible place for adjustment, replacement, and repair. A trap primer, a specialized valve, is usually connected to a clean-water supply in addition to a DWV system. [20] Because of the dual connection, it must be designed to resist the accidental backflow of contaminated water.

4. Surface-mount technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-mount_technology

   Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, [1] is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). [2] An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface-mount device ( SMD ).

5. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

   Also, the tortuous S-shaped path the water is forced to follow offers a significant obstruction to the flow. For high pressure domestic water systems this does not matter, but for low pressure systems where flow rate is important, such as a shower fed by a storage tank, a "stop tap" or, in engineering terms, a "gate valve" is preferred.

6. Plumbing - Wikipedia

   Present-day water-supply systems use a network of high-pressure pumps, and pipes in buildings are now made of copper, [34] brass, plastic (particularly cross-linked polyethylene called PEX, which is estimated to be used in 60% of single-family homes [35]), or other nontoxic material.

7. Flat no-leads package - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_no-leads_package

   Flat no-leads, also known as micro leadframe (MLF) and SON (small-outline no leads), is a surface-mount technology, one of several package technologies that connect ICs to the surfaces of PCBs without through-holes. Flat no-lead is a near chip scale plastic encapsulated package made with a planar copper lead frame substrate.

8. Vacuum breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_breaker

   A vacuum breaker is a device that prevents water from being siphoned backward in a direction it is not desired to go. They are commonly placed on a bibcock valve or toilet or urinal flush valve, in which application they can prevent hose or drainage water from back-siphoning into the public drinking water system.
