  2. Thermostatic mixing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve

    WW-Zulauf = Warmwasser-Zulauf = Hot water input KW-Zulauf = Kaltwasser-Zulauf = Cold water input Temperaturregler =Temperature regulator Abgang = Outlet Mengeneinstellung = Volume control. A thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) is a valve that blends hot water with cold water to ensure constant, safe shower and bath outlet temperatures to prevent ...

  3. Automatic meter reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_meter_reading

    [citation needed] As an example, many water meters are installed in locations that require the utility to schedule an appointment with the homeowner in order to obtain access to the meter. In many areas, consumers have demanded that their monthly water bill be based on an actual reading, instead of (for example) an estimated monthly usage based ...

    For instance, setting those up so that the temperature in the morning at 7 a.m. should be 21 °C (69.8 °F), makes sure that at that time the temperature will be 21 °C (69.8 °F), where a conventional thermostat would just start working at that time.

    After moving to Wabash, Ford Meter Box expanded its product offerings, and in 1916, Ford Meter Box received its first patent for the water meter test bench. [2] The firm also began manufacturing meter-setting products for a variety of installation settings. In the early 1960s, Ford Meter Box introduced the ball valve for waterworks applications ...

  7. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    Maintaining constant shower temperature: Similarly, unlike with a tank heater, the hot water temperature from a non-modulated tankless heater is inversely proportional to the rate of the water flow—the faster the flow, the less time the water spends in the heating element being heated. Mixing hot and cold water to the "right" temperature from ...

  8. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    A tempering valve mixes enough cold water with the hot water from the heater to keep the outgoing water temperature fixed at a more moderate temperature, often set to 50 °C (122 °F). Without a tempering valve, reduction of the water heater's setpoint temperature is the most direct way to reduce scalding.

  9. Positive displacement meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_displacement_meter

    A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires fluid to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for flow measurement. Positive displacement (PD) flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes (finite increments or volumes of the fluid).
