    Typical cleaning cycles are completed in 12 minutes. [4] Alfa Laval Gamajet device after cleaning ketchup tank. The Butterworth Type K machine is widely used. [1] This model can clean a tank of up to 10,000,000 US gallons (38,000 m 3). [1] It uses water with a pressure up to 250 psi (1,700 kPa) and a temperature of up to 250 °F (121 °C). [1]

  3. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    Pressure regulator for domestic water supply. Outlet pressure is set with the blue handwheel and shown on the vertical scale. A water pressure regulating valve limits inflow by dynamically changing the valve opening so that when less pressure is on the outside, the valve opens up fully, and too much pressure on the outside causes the valve to shut.

  4. Backflow prevention device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backflow_prevention_device

    Backflow prevention device. The simplest, most reliable way to provide backflow prevention is to provide an air gap.An air gap is simply an open vertical space between any device that connects to a plumbing system (like a valve or faucet) and any place where contaminated water can collect or pool.

  6. Ballcock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballcock

    As the tank water level drops, the float descends and actuates the fill valve. Water is fed to the tank to replenish its supply, and a smaller flow is directed into the overflow tube to refill the bowl. Once the flapper valve closes, the water flow from the fill valve continues until the tank level again reaches the fill line.

    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 ...

  8. Water tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_tank

    An elevated water tank, also known as a water tower, will create a pressure at the ground-level outlet of 1 kPa per 10.2 centimetres (4.0 in) or 1 psi per 2.31 feet (0.70 m) of elevation. Thus a tank elevated to 20 metres creates about 200 kPa and a tank elevated to 70 feet creates about 30 psi of discharge pressure, sufficient for most ...
