A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction.

3. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

   In addition, a suction-side swing check valve or a vent valve must be fitted to prevent any siphon action and ensure that the fluid remains in the casing when the pump has been stopped. In self-priming centrifugal pumps with a separation chamber the fluid pumped and the entrained air bubbles are pumped into the separation chamber by the ...

   A common type of this style fitting is a "hex bushing" with a hex head for installation with a pipe wrench. A double-tapped bushing is more compact than a reducer but not as flexible. While a double-tapped bushing has a more minor female thread concentric to a larger male thread (and thus couples a smaller male end to a larger female), a ...

5. 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.

6. Backflow prevention device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backflow_prevention_device

   A backflow prevention device is used to protect potable water supplies from contamination or pollution due to backflow . In water distribution systems, water is normally maintained at a significant pressure to enable water to flow from the tap, shower, or other fixture. Water pressure may fail or be reduced when a water main bursts, pipes ...

7. Hydrostatic test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_test

   Hydrostatic testing is the most common method employed for testing pipes and pressure vessels. Using this test helps maintain safety standards and durability of a vessel over time. Newly manufactured pieces are initially qualified using the hydrostatic test. They are then revalidated at regular intervals according to the relevant standard.
