COURSE CHAPTER SUBJECT | SEMESTER | ACADEMIC YEAR Plumbing Fixtures Outer Diameter (OD) - Tube Attach to pipes for access/drain of corresponds to the tube size. water/wastewater Piping Kind DEFINITION Materials Water Closet receive human Earth/Concrete excrement and to discharge it through a Reinforced - usually used for canals waste pipe Concrete Pipes (RCP) Lavatory designed for the washing of the hands or Vitrified Clay - terra-cotta face. Pipes (VCP) - commonly used in Wash basin gravity sewer collection For washing people - vitrified blend of clay and shale Sink For washing other objects Bituminous - pipe made from basin with a water Fiber Pipe bituminized pressed supply, connected with (BFP) wood pulp fiber a drain. Wood usually used for natural Showerbath/ apparatus for spraying resources Shower water in the body, usually from above. Asbestos Prohibited made of #besto $ askes to and Bidet washing the middle part Portland cement of the body, especially "ablution hose" the genitals METAL Sitz Bath Cast – Iron for wastewater Tubs Bath tubs used in sewers, drains, Laundry Tubs stacks, and vents in a waste system Drinking consisting of a shallow also called corporation Fountain basin, with a water jet suitable to 25 stories or designed to provide less due to vibration potable water for human SV Type - building consumption installation XV Type - extra duty Plumbing 1. Soap Holder pipe for underground Accessories 2. Paper Holder 3. Toothbrush and Galvanized better than steel pipe Tumbler Holder wrought pipe (more resistant to acid) 4. Tower holder / Tower bar Galvanized coated with zinc to 5. Seat Cover Iron prevent corrosion Dishwasing Machine to clean dishes Lead Pipe oldest piping materials Machiner Copper pipe best material to use Emergency First aid materials to K - heaviest suitable for Shower / prevent further damage underground Eyewash L - lighter used for Station residential M - thinnest design Food Waste Grind food wastes to · e Iron n ste Grinder prevent clog Galvanized coated with zinc to prevent corrosion Pipings Brass a yellow alloy of copper conduct or transfer fluids (liquids and gases) and zinc from one place to other place. PLASTIC Internal Diameter (ID) - Pipe mostly used for clean water nominal pipe size for standard wall durable, lightweight and flexible thickness. significantly less energy to fabricate, transport, and install COURSE CHAPTER SUBJECT | SEMESTER | ACADEMIC YEAR PVC (Polyvinyl Most commonly used Check Valve to prevent the flow of Chloride) – liquid or gas in reverse CPVC, UPVC direction. Automatically closes GRP widely found in (Glass/fiber machinery industry Swing/lift used in pipelines where Reinforce (aerospace,automotive) check pressure and velocity of Plastic) flow are low PPR lightest pining material Float Valve used in toilet for flush (Polypropylene Chemical resistant ) Flushometer device which discharges a predetermined quantity of water to fixtures for flushing Pipe Hangers and Supports designed to support or elevate pipe from a Pipe Fittings base structure for vertical and horizontal for change of direction arrangement. attachments placed on pipe end, which Maintain 2% slope provide flexibility in piping system. commonly used for changing the direction of Valves flow, distribution, increase or decrease the incorporated in pipelines to control the flow flow capacity and interconnection into, through, and from them. Kind DEFINITION Functions Control Elbow/ell change the direction of a Closure at over-speed flow pipeline Over-pressure protection 90 degrees Backflow prevention On/off service Offset Carries soil or waste line past an obstruction in a building Kind DEFINITION Gate Valve utilize a movable gate or door to allow or prevent flow I ate is raised or lowered using a mechanical assist of a threaded screw Globe Valve compression-type valve Tee most common pipe controls the flow of fitting liquid by means of a used when a pipe run circular disk branches at a 90-degree angle Angle Valve usually found at the not usually used for toilet for bidet wastewater globe valve with the inlet and outlet at a 90- degree angle to one another recommended for frequent peration,throttling, and/or a positive shutoff when closed Wye waste-fitting tee in Ball Valve a large sphere with a which the side inlet pipe central hole equal to the enters at a 45-degree inside diameter of the angle pipe is mounted three opening Butterfly Valve for stabilizing high pressure water isolating or regulating flow COURSE CHAPTER SUBJECT | SEMESTER | ACADEMIC YEAR Coupling used to connect two (female) lengths of a pipe Cross joins two different pipelines in the same Cleanout Removable, threaded plane, making them plug placed in drainage perpendicular to each lines for cleaning or other removing stoppages Bushing reduce a fitting outlet or to connect a pipe to a Reducer allows for a change in larger outlet pipe size Flange caps and plugs used to seal off openings usually used for steel pipes in other fittings or pipe a disc, collar, or ring that attaches to the pipe ends Pipe Diameters NPS - Nominal Pipe Size NB - Nominal Bore DN – Nominal Diameter OD – Outer Diameter ID – Internal Diameter SCH – Schedule – sets the wall thickness Plumbing Assembly: Materials Oakum Nipple (male) used to make an Lead extension from a fitting Solder or to join two fittings Solvent Cement Gaskets Insulator Pipe Engagement distance the pipe goes into a fitting determined by the nominal size diameter of a pipe Union join the ends of two Pipe Connections pipes that can be turned Threading and Compression – Steel and or disconnected Copper Solder – Copper Solvent Cement – Plastic Oakum and Lead – Cast Iron Pipe Distance Measurements FF – Face to Face CC – Center to center COURSE CHAPTER SUBJECT | SEMESTER | ACADEMIC YEAR EE – End to end Offset OC – On center BOT – From bottom of TOP – From top of
