a type of float valve used in plumbing systems, specifically designed for use with PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) pipes. Here’s a breakdown of what each part of the term typically means:
- “Ball Cock”: A ball cock, also known as a float valve, is a mechanism used to control the flow of water into a tank or cistern. It typically consists of a valve connected to a floating ball. When the water level drops, the ball drops with it, opening the valve to allow water to refill the tank. When the water level rises, the ball floats up, closing the valve to stop the flow of water.
- “PPR”: This specifies the material the ball cock is made of, which is Polypropylene Random Copolymer. PPR is commonly used in plumbing for its durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures.
A “Ball Cock PPR” would then be a float valve mechanism specifically designed for use with PPR pipes in plumbing systems. It serves the same function as traditional float valves but is compatible with PPR piping materials. These are commonly used in toilet cisterns, water tanks, and other applications where water level control is necessary
