Could someone please help with identifying this on a hose bib.
Can’t recall ever seeing this before.
My best guess is that its and air chamber to eliminate water hammer.
I think it is a lawnmower muffler, and the valve is a captain’s choice cut out.

It is shaped like a small engine muffler but I don’t see any exhaust holes.
Paul, That’s what I suspect. There were a total of four hose bibs at the house and two of them had them on.
Gets my vote too.
Possibly an anti-siphon valve?..an odd one, but…
I really can’t tell if there is an opening around that seam or elsewhere.
Did a little research and found that it was made by ZURN and is a
SHOKTROL WATER HAMMER ARRESTOR used in commercial settings like laundramats. Thanks for your help.
I learned somthing today.
And now so have I. Thanks
