摘要： Systems and methods of measuring properties of water in a water distribution system are provided. An analysis system, according to one embodiment, comprises a plurality of water sensors connected at various points to the water distribution system, each of the plurality of water sensors configured to measure a property of water. The analysis system also includes a computer server configured to communicate with the plurality of water sensors via a network and receive water measurement data from the plurality of water sensors. The computer server comprises a processor, a database configured to store the water measurement data, and a system health monitoring module configured to evaluate the health of the water distribution system to obtain health data. The analysis system further includes at least one client device configured to communicate with the computer server via the network and receive the health data from the computer server.

摘要： A pipe joint is disclosed that includes a housing wherein the housing defines a longitudinal axis and an inside surface, and includes a gripping assembly comprising a first gripping member comprising a first protruberance extending radially inward from an inner surface of the first gripping member, a second gripping member comprising a second protruberance extending radially inward from an inner surface of the second gripping member, and an interconnecting body comprising a resilient material. The interconnecting body connects the first gripping member to the second gripping member, and a clearance is defined between the interconnecting body and the inside surface of the housing. The joint can also include an annular seal positioned axially adjacent to the interconnecting body inside the housing.

摘要： A valve assembly includes a valve plate and a reversible main valve contacting the valve plate. The main valve has an internal rigid structure and an outer shell, the internal rigid structure having a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface. The internal rigid structure is at least partially enclosed by the outer shell, the outer shell defining a side surface and a radially outermost edge on the side surface, the side surface of the outer shell including a beveled portion extending from the radially outermost edge of the side surface of the outer shell towards a top surface of the outer shell.
