DFT® Inc's engineers have been working with professionals in a range of industries for decades, helping to identify and resolve water hammer's underlying causes.

Water hammer and reverse flow can seriously damage pipelines, pipe joints gaskets, pumps, and all the other components of a fluid flow system (flow meters, pressure gauges, etc.). The pressure spikes can easily exceed five to ten times the system's working pressure; upon impact, thereby placing a great deal of stress on the system.

Does your Fluid System Suffer from Water Hammer?

DFT’s Understanding Water Hammer eBook outlines the causes and most effective solutions for Water Hammer in fluid flow systems and industrial applications.

In this eBook you will learn:

• What causes water hammer and why it is such a persistent problem     
• The role design plays in reducing the risk water hammer poses to your system
• DFT’s professional recommendations for coping with water hammer
