It is easy to imagine the consequences of a sudden resumption of water supply in the absence of the owners of the apartment.
Output — in the introduction to the water supply system new item, valves and fittings, excluding emergency situations from the open tap. Below are the description and the circuit is simple in design and simple to manufacture safety valve. It automatically locks the water system in the apartment in the absence of water and remain closed when resuming the application. Open the valve manually.
The principle of operation of valve is to use a special float, which in the pressed form, floats in water and does not interfere with its passage, and in its absence under the force of gravity is lowered in the locking conical socket and blocks the system.
The valve is made in the form of a pipe coupling installed in front of the usual valve on ’ a horizontal section of the pipeline. It float freely placed in the conical socket of the housing and itself has a conical shape, providing it a snug fit when leaving water from the system. With the resumption of water flow the float is additionally supported from above by the pressure of the water received through the upper opening in the conical nest.
