By the application of Taco valves are divided into the following categories:

* Construction of hospitals and general-purpose mass-produced in large quantities and is designed for environments with frequently used values of pressure and temperature. These fittings are equipped with water PEX pipe, steam PEX pipe, municipal pipelines,PEX radiant heating systems, etc. In Canada, such devices are widely represented products of the German manufacturer ARI-Armaturen GmbH, USA – Everhot, Slovenian – POLIX, Canadian – Corporation BOW fittings. This is mainly valves, Taco Mixing Valves, Zone Valves, Boiler Feed Valves, Backflow Preventers, Pressure Reducing Valves, Flow Control / Flow Check Valves and Pressure Differential Bypass Valves.
* Industrial valves for special conditions designed to operate at relatively high pressures and temperatures, at low temperatures, in corrosive, toxic, radioactive, viscous, abrasive or granular media. This fixture include: fittings of high energy parameters, cryogenic, corrosive, fountains, valves with PEX radiant heating, valves for abrasive slurries and bulk materialov.
* Special valves designed and manufactured for individual orders on the basis of specific technical requirements (eg, for experimental and unique industrial plants, including nuclear power plants).
* Ship fittings available for work in specific conditions of the river on boats and the navy with the exacting demands for the minimum weight, vibration resistance, high reliability, the special conditions of management and operation.
* Plumbing fixtures are equipped with various household appliances: gas stove, bathroom installation, kitchen sinks, etc. Basically this ball valves, check valves, pressure regulators, filters, control valves. This type of fixture in our market are brought trademarks HERZ (Austria), Danfoss (Denmark) Heimeier, Oventrop (Germany), Far, Brandoni (Italy).

The use of a particular type of reinforcement is determined by such factors as: the possibility and necessity of manual or mechanical drives, remote or automatic control, speed of operation, availability of emergency in the drive system with an independent source of energy.

Thus, the method of Taco control valves can be controlled automatically and the current (battery or direct action). Most manufacturers provide a constructive use of manual or mechanical drive. Valves with manual transmission equipped with a flywheel, flywheel and gearbox. As a mechanical drive can be used electromechanical, electromagnetic, diaphragm, piston and bellows. According to their embodiment valve actuator may be Shaft (block), built-in and remote. This universality is inherent in the main control valve, differential pressure, temperature, which are involved in automated systems for transportation of oil, gas, PEX radiant heating systems.

Owing to the high quality and unique properties of PEX pipe (molecular shape memory, high elasticity, smooth surface, etc.), compounds Uponor Wirsbo performed without gluing, soldering, PEX radiant heating, welding, threading.

PEX pipe

Applicable fittings are made from a variety of corrosion-resistant materials and have high quality (availability of quality certificate ISO 9001).

In the technology of Uponor Wirsbo, there are three types of connections:

* A combination of mechanical screwed with crimp nuts (chuck) for PEX pipe Ø 16,20,25 mm;
* A combination of mechanical clamping (crimping clamps) type WiPEX – for PEX pipe Ø 25-10 mm;
* Connections samoobzhimnye Wirsbo Quick & Easy – used for PEX pipe Ø 16, 20, 25, 32, 40 mm.
