EPD: Brass urinal flush valve, including packaging, 2.87 kg/unit, flush volume 0.25 gpf, Diaphragm flushometers (Royal, Regal, Sloan) (Sloan Valve Company)
Sloan flushometer products belong to the Commercial Plumbing Fixtures specification code, CSI code 22 42 43 and the UNSPSC code 30180000. A flushometer is a flush valve mechanism designed to flush toilets and urinals. Many present-day commercial applications use flushometers in place of standard flush valves as they are less water intensive. The flushometer is a plumbing device that does not require a storage tank filled with water for flushing. Rather, it conserves more water over time and for every flush through delivery of a metered amount of water at much higher pressure compared to that of a standard flush valve. The product systems under study include the following products.
