The current paper presents the optimal ways for choosing appropriate devices in order to protect the pressurized hydraulic installations in a water supply system, against water hammer phenomena. The case study done it in this research paper presents a hydraulic system formed by a main water pipe, and it’s behaviour regarding the water hammer phenomena, taking into account 3 types of pipe execution materials (ductile iron, polyethylene and glass reinforced pipe). The study includes also the protection equipment’s need it for each type of pipe material. Hydraulic simulation was made using a numerical calculation model, designed with a software special for non-steady flowing state in pressurized systems, called Bentley Hammer v.10i..
