Plumbing, fluids and landscaping

Frequently asked questions — Plumbing, fluids & landscaping

• How do you choose between valve solutions and fluid transfer systems?

  The choice depends on the intended function within your industrial network. The Valves and taps category is dedicated to regulating, controlling and shutting off liquid or gas flows in order to ensure tightness. If your need specifically concerns the safe conveyance of pressurised gas, the Hoses and compressed air range will be more appropriate to ensure the continuity of pneumatic operations between your supply sources and the points of use.
• Which technical parameters should be evaluated when selecting distribution equipment?

  The selection of your equipment within the Plumbing, fluids and landscaping family must take into account the nature of the fluid, the service pressure and the installation conditions specific to your site. For transfer networks, hose sizing and the type of connection are decisive factors in ensuring flow performance. For valves and taps, it is essential to verify the chemical compatibility of construction materials and the opening cycles required by your application.
• Which family should be favoured for the preventive maintenance of mechanical components in a workshop?

  For the operational upkeep of your moving components, you should turn to the Greasing and spraying range. This family brings together the tools needed for the precise application of lubricants, ensuring a uniform distribution of fluids on machines and industrial installations. These solutions are specifically designed to meet the requirements of preventive maintenance and to optimise the service life of mechanical components in technical environments.
• Which criteria distinguish landscaping tools from watering systems?

  The distinction is based on the nature of your work on outdoor areas. The Landscaping tools range brings together robust equipment for soil preparation and plant care, whereas the Watering range focuses on the technical management of water networks. The selection between these two families will depend on the surface area to be treated, the desired flow rate for watering, or the precision required for fluid management and landscaping operations.
• Why is it important to consider viscosity when choosing spraying equipment?

  The configuration of spraying installations, included in the Greasing and spraying range, calls for a thorough analysis of the viscosity of the fluids you use. This technical data is essential for determining the type of jet required for your application and ensuring uniform distribution on the surfaces or components to be treated. Consistency between these parameters allows for the structuring of durable networks suited to the specific requirements of each industrial or landscaped environment.
