    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_valve

    A swing check valve (or tilting disc check valve) is a check valve in which the disc, the movable part to block the flow, swings on a hinge or trunnion, either onto the seat to block reverse flow or off the seat to allow forward flow. The seat opening cross-section may be perpendicular to the centerline between the two ports or at an angle.

    There are three main categories for water temperature controlling devices: Heat Source, Group Control, and Point-of-Use. Heat Source. These are used with central heating systems that use water as a medium. Tempering valves for use on hot water heat distribution systems; High flow rates suitable for use in under floor (radiant) heating applications

    In the case of the downstream check valve passing, the differential pressure relief valve prevents the possibility of the chamber pressure from exceeding the supply pressure. It is theoretically possible that, when both valves are faulty, backflow could occur, should the reverse flow rate exceed the capacity of the relief valve.

    The handle moves up and down to control the amount of water flow and from side to side to control the temperature of the water. Especially for baths and showers, the latest designs are thermostatic mixing valves that do this using a built-in thermostat , and can be mechanical or electronic.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_leakage

    Class IV valves have no more than 0.01% leakage under those conditions; this tends to require multiple graphite piston rings or a single Teflon piston ring, and lapped metal seats. Class V valves leak less than 5 × 10 −12 cubic metres, per second, per bar of pressure differential, per millimetre of port diameter, of water when tested at the ...

  7. Double check valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_check_valve

    A double check valve or double check assembly (DCA) is a backflow prevention device designed to protect water supplies from contamination. [1] It is different from the two-way check valves (sometimes erroneously referred to as double check valves) used in air brake systems on heavy trucks which select from the highest pressure source.
