The safe and efficient operation of a liquid piping system is dependent on the continual removal of air and wastewater gases from the liquid piping system. Choosing the proper air valve for the application is critical to all liquid piping systems. This manual provides essential information...
This standard describes 1-in. (25-mm) through 12-in. (300-mm) air valve and vent inflow preventer assemblies designed for use on the outlet of potable water distribution system air valves furnished in accordance with ANSI/AWWA C512 or storage facility vent pipes. The assemblies...
The fluid flow and torque calculations are based on water or wastewater flow and do not specifically relate to other liquids or gases. The adjustments for application to other fluids can be found in other texts on fluid mechanics. This manual of standard practice covers round or circular BVs and...
This standard pertains to the various types and classes of wet-barrel fire hydrants for use in fire-protection service in areas where the climate is mild and freezing temperatures do not occur. A wet-barrel hydrant has one or more valve openings above the ground line and, under normal...
This standard describes the double check-valve backflow prevention assembly for potable water applications. The assembly shall be capable of withstanding a working water pressure of at least 150 psi (1,034 kPa) without damage to working parts or impairment of function and for operation on...
Hydraulic and pneumatic power actuators provide automatic control of ball, plug, and butterfly valves, as well as slide gates in water and wastewater applications. This new Manual of Water Supply Practices explains how various actuators are constructed and operated given specific parameters....
This standard establishes minimum requirements for high-performance butterfly valves, 3 in. (75 mm) through 60 in. (1,500 mm) in diameter, with various body and end types, for raw, potable, and reclaimed water having a pH range from 6 to 12 and a temperature range from 33°-125°F (0.6°-51...
This standard covers open-channel, fabricated-metal slide gates and openchannel, fabricated-metal weir gates for water supply service. This standard also covers manual slide lift mechanisms and standard gate appurtenances. Power-driven actuators are specified in ANSI/AWWA C540, Standard for...
This specification is applicable to all valve springs, ready for installation, which are manufactured from alloy spring steel. Mission / Theme. Not applicable. Classification. Not applicable. Note: Nothing in the specification, however, supersedes applicable laws and regulations unless a...
This Standard Practice establishes minimum requirements for the modification of new American Water Works Association (AWWA) valves manufactured in accordance with one or more of the following AWWA standards, and that require modification to meet specific end user requirements...
This Recommended Practice (RP) provides general guidance on valve selection for the hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI), which includes refineries and petrochemical, chemical, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) plants and their various associated processes. Selection guidance is provided for...
This specification covers an outlet valve which has a plastic valve seat, cover and a rubber disk. The valve is a component of a chemical protective mask (see 6.1).
SCOPE & LIMITATIONS Selection of a leakage class is not restricted as to valve design, but acceptable values for various commercially available designs are suggested for each class under Section 4. This standard applies to control valve seat leak production testing and cannot be used...
This SAE Information Report provides: a Types of valve guides and their nomenclature b Valve guide alloy designations and their chemistries c Valve guide alloy metallurgy d Typical mechanical and physical properties of guide alloys e Typical dimensional tolerances of...
This document contains terminology for control valves. To provide a glossary of definitions commonly used in the control valve industry.
This standard specifies the requirements for the general design and manufacturing requirements for valves and actuators for fluid systems in surface ships and submarines. This standard covers valves for both High Pressure (HP) and Low Pressure (LP) fluid systems, however specific...
This specification establishes the requirements for the manufacture and acceptance of the 3-way solenoid valve (also known as the Mode Selector Valve (MSV)), used in the Fire Control System for the M109A6 Self-Propelled Howitzer (SPH) (see 6.1).
This book provides information on the aortic valve. Written in a comprehensive style, it emphasizes the principles behind the development of artificial valves. It covers the principles of valve geometry, tissue structure and function relationships, valve dynamics, fluid...
