I recently got hold of some pneumatic stuff from an old household plumbing system but it don't know what they are. http://s98.photobucket.com/albums/l248/ ... %20valves/
I think the black kite handle one is a tap valve

Many thanks

I think one is a pressure relief valve(screw lid), they can be found on air compressor's to change the amount of PSI coming out of the hose and into what ever your filling up.

Why would you have a QEV in a home plumbing system? attached to a boiler?
You might be right, but i doubt I'll be able to use them. I think im gonna put the on ebay.
