COMPACT AIRCRAFT GALLEY PLUMBING SYSTEM

摘要

An aircraft galley plumbing system is disclosed comprising water distribution components and assemblies to allow installation in a wet/refrigerated reduced foot print galley. The system includes a single potable water distribution manifold (28) with quick disconnect couplings (30) for the GAINS and built in air bleed devices (34) facilitating rapid drainage and easy installation. The system also includes a compact pressure check valve (26) to control filling operation and drain down of the potable water system. The use of a compact air stop valve (46) and integrated master distribution block (16) and water filter system (18a, 18b) further enhance the system.
