Back flow preventers are assemblies consisting of two check valves and two shut off valves. These assemblies may also include test cocks for each chamber.
Ball valves provide tight shut-off and characterizable control. They have high rangeability due to the design of the regulating element, without the complications of side loads typical of butterfly or globe valves.
Check valves are self-activating safety valves that permit gases and liquids to flow in only one direction, preventing process flow from reversing. They are classified as one-way directional valves. 
Gate valves and knife valves are linear motion valves in which a flat closure element slides into the media stream to shut off flow.
Globe valves are linear motion valves with rounded bodies, from which their name is derived.  They are widely used in industry to regulate fluid flow in both on/off and throttling service. 
Industrial valves are classified in many different ways. They can be distinguished by material of construction, media handled, and/or application.
Quarter-turn plug valves use a cylindrical or tapered plug with a hole in the center to control straight through flow when in the open position.
Water valves are designed to handle and control hot water, cold water, ground water, potable water, salt water and/or wastewater. They are made from metal or plastic.
