AM0191292, Ames, 8 IN SS Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer Assembly, Colt, NRS Shutoff Valves, Link Check Modules, Backflow Flood Sensor

This Colt™ 8 inch stainless steel reduced pressure zone backflow preventer assembly is designed to prevent the reverse flow of contaminated water from being pumped or siphoned into the potable water supply due to backsiphonage and or backpressure. This extremely compact and lighter than a traditional designed assembly is approved for horizontal installation in accordance with the direction of the flow arrow. It is ideal for protection in continuous pressure piping applications and at cross-connections identified as health hazards and from other contaminants found at the service line entrance. This assembly consists of a stainless steel body with a quick access sleeve, torsion spring check valves, resilient seated gate valves with non-rising stem, test cocks, and a corrosive resistant stainless steel bottom mounted pressure relief valve. This backflow assembly contains an integrated flood sensor with SentryPlus Alert® technology to detect excessive water discharges from the relief valve. When activated through an add-on sensor connection kit, the flood sensor can send an alert to notify personnel about potential flooding. Add-on sensor connection kits are available for BMS and cellular communications.
