How to prevent the water hammer effect in the pipeline system

After the installation of the pump room and the piping system, it is often found that when the system is running, when the pump is stopped or the power is cut off, the piping system will have a great impact of water, impacting the pump, valve and pipeline, and some Water hammer may be very light, but some are serious, and even worse, serious quality accidents may occur.
