The Angle 15mm Shock Arrestor is a specialized device designed to absorb pressure surges, commonly known as water hammer, in fluid systems. It is specifically built with a 15mm compression fitting and an angled design to provide an efficient solution for preventing damage to pipes, valves, and other components in residential and light commercial applications. The angled configuration of the shock arrestor allows for easier installation in tight or restricted spaces, making it an ideal choice for systems where space is limited. Water hammer occurs when the flow of water is suddenly stopped or redirected, creating a shock wave that travels through the pipe. This surge in pressure can cause significant wear and tear on the system, leading to potential leaks, burst pipes, or valve damage. The Angle 15mm Shock Arrestor works by absorbing these sudden pressure changes, dissipating the energy from the shock and preventing it from propagating through the system. Made from durable materials such as high-quality plastic or stainless steel, the shock arrestor is built to handle the demands of everyday fluid systems, offering long-lasting performance and reliability. Its internal chamber or diaphragm compresses when a surge occurs, helping to cushion the impact and maintain the stability of the system. The 15mm compression fitting ensures a secure and tight connection to the pipeline, facilitating easy installation and eliminating the need for complex fittings or additional tools. This shock arrestor is commonly used in water supply, heating, and HVAC systems, particularly where space constraints or angled installations are a concern. It provides effective protection against pressure shocks, reduces system noise, and extends the overall lifespan of the piping system by reducing the risk of damage from water hammer. In summary, the Angle 15mm Shock Arrestor is a compact and efficient solution designed to protect piping systems from pressure surges. Its angled design allows for easier installation in tight spaces, and its durable construction ensures reliable, long-term protection against the damaging effects of water hammer.
