Sanitary and water separation methods

Some of the products, components and systems used in sanitary and water separation methods which are tested and monitored by the LGA:

• drinking water taps, shut-off valves, safety valves, sanitary and drain valves
• membrane pressure expansion tanks
• drainage, drainage sets, anti-siphon traps
• bath, shower and whirlpool tubs, luxury showers
• sanitary ceramics: toilets, urinals, cisterns, washbasins and bidets
• cisterns, filling and drainage valves
• pipes, adaptors and special adaptors for drains
• installation components
• cellar draining pumps, lifting plants for waste water with or without faecal matter, return flow inhibitors
• back pressure stoppers, heating oil locks
• petrol separators, coalescence separators, grease separators, sludge traps
• emulsion separators.

We carry out the following tests:

• size checks, thread size, deformation
• flow and drain rate measurements
• loss of pressure measurements
• pump performance
• separation efficiency, determining hydrocarbons
• alternating temperature tests
• pressure, stability and leakage tests
• testing the rinsing function
• re-intake behaviour, low pressure tests
• checking taps for wear behaviour, endurance tests
• static tests
• noise tests for valves
• hygiene tests for whirlpools.

Appraisals of special components and of cases of damage.
