LF15M2 Water Hammer Arrestor with 1/2″ Connection
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 eliminate 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 precharged, 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.
