2. Low-flow fixtures - Wikipedia

   Another emerging option for the highest level of water saving showerheads are Thermostatic Shut-off Valves (TSV). Showerheads equipped with a TSV will automatically shutoff once the desired temperature is reached, saving the hot water used while waiting for the shower water to warm. [19]

3. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve)

   Cone valves or ball valves are another alternative. These are commonly found as the service shut-off valves in more-expensive water systems and usually found in gas taps (and, incidentally, the cask beer taps referred to above). They can be identified by their range of motion—only 90°—between fully open and closed.

4. Shut-off nozzle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shut-off_nozzle

   Bolt Shut-off Nozzle type BHP - pneumatic or hydraulic actuation. A shut-off bolt, positioned perpendicular to the melt channel moves up and down according to actuation, and thus shuts off/opens the melt flow. This nozzle type has a single melt channel. It therefore does not require rerouting of the melt around the shut-off mechanism.

5. Isolation valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_valve

   Isolation valves must effectively stop the passage of fluids. [4] Gate valves, ball valves and plug valves are generally considered to provide tight and effective shut-off. Globe valves and Butterfly valves may not be tight shut-off due to wear on the plug or the seat, or due to their design, and may not be appropriate to provide effective ...

6. Shutdown valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutdown_valve

   A shutdown valve (also referred to as SDV or emergency shutdown valve, ESV, ESD, or ESDV; or safety shutoff valve) is an actuated valve designed to stop the flow of a hazardous fluid upon the detection of a dangerous event. This provides protection against possible harm to people, equipment or the environment.

7. List of valves - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

   Valves can be categorized into the following types, based on their operating mechanism: Ball valve, for on–off control without pressure drop. Ideal for quick shut-off, since a 90° turn completely shuts off, compared to multiple 360° turns for other manual valves; Butterfly valve, for on–off flow control in large diameter pipes
