Water Hammer Arrestor

Water Hammer Arrestors are designed to absorb pressure surges, known as water hammer. A water hammer is a pressure surge caused by sudden changes in water flow - these surges can lead to damage in pipelines, fittings, and fixtures, especially in multistorey applications.

Applications of Water Hammer Arrestors:

In Building & Construction:

Multistorey buildings have complex water supply systems that control hot and cold water to several floors. Water hammer is common, as each level has a variable pressure – whether located at ground level, or at the topmost floor of a high-rise. To counter that, BERMAD’s air release valves can be installed at strategic locations in the buildings and work automatically to release air pressure pockets – aiding role of water hammer arrestors.

Water Hammer Arrestors Key Aspects:

Shock Absorption: Reduces damage from sudden pressure surges.

System Protection: Helps prevent long-term wear and tear in water supply networks and in buildings.
