What does a urinal diaphragm do?
A urinal diaphragm is a component in urinal flush valves that regulates the flow of water during flushing. It helps maintain a consistent water pressure and ensures that the urinal flushes effectively while minimizing waste and conserving water. The diaphragm creates a seal that opens and closes to control the release of water, contributing to the overall efficiency and functionality of the urinal system.
What are placed between metal joints?
There are two options: plastic washers or a grease of some sort. The purpose of this kind of barrier is to reduce friction and wear and tare from a metal-on-metal contact. Plastic washers are useful because they are usually made of high density polyethylene or polycarbonate - both extremely slippery substances. however, this type of washer has bean surpassed by some of the modern heavy-duty greases, which don't break and last for a long time. Washers are still used for "clean applications" where grease would be considered a "contaminant" and in instances where the metal pieces would interfere with each other's movements if they were allowed to touch.

LA90 is a standard way of specifying background noise over a given time. It is the noise level that is exceeded for 90% of the time being considered. E.g. 25dBA LA90 (10min) means that for a given 15 min period noise levels would be above 25dBA for 90% of the time. It can also be used as a Noise Management Level for construction purposes where works are being conducted around residential areas.
