What is Water Hammer?
The noise from banging pipes is caused by shocks of high speed
water flowing in the piping system when a fixture is suddenly
closed. Sudden stoppage of the water (a non-compressible liquid)
flowing at a given pressure and velocity causes a surge or spike of
water and is called water hammer. When this occurs, a pressure
wave travels back through the piping until it finds a point of relief.
The LF15M2 and LF15M2S Water Hammer Arrestors are designed
to elliminate this effect. The LF15M2 and LF15M2S features Lead
Free* construction to comply with Lead Free* requirements.
Dishwashers, clothes washers, fast closing positive shutoff valves
incorporated in the system all contribute to creating water shock
which is not only annoying but damaging to pipes and appliances.
The Watts Series LF15M2 and LF15M2S incorporates a pre-
charged, permanent sealed air chamber to absorb the shock. The
sealed chamber prevents the loss of air to the water and assures
long and trouble-free life.
