Zilmet inox expansion vessel 0.16l. Water hammer arrester arrestor. Anti shock

Zilmet shock arrestor mini expansion vessel with a 1/2″ BSP male connection.

This is the device you need to prevent water hammer in your water system.

It’s a genuine Zilmet product not a cheap copy.

Why use it?

Water hammer is caused when a water supply outlet is closed very suddenly. This causes a change in the momentum of the water when the system suddenly goes from a lower running pressure to a higher static pressure. This momentum impacts against the now closed outlet resulting in a potentially loud banging noise. This is commonly found in “quarter turn” type tap outlets and washing machines with solenoids controlling flow. Siting a shock arrester as close to the source of the noise as possible will cause the vessel’s diaphragm to flex in response to this momentum change and prevent the audible impact against the terminal fittings.
