Copper double check backflow preventer
Product Overview | The Copper Double Check Backflow Preventer is a high-performance, compact device designed to protect potable water systems from backflow contamination. Constructed from durable lead-free copper alloy, it is ideal for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where water safety and reliability are paramount. This backflow preventer features a double check valve assembly that ensures fail-safe protection against reverse flow, even in low-hazard applications. Its corrosion-resistant copper construction makes it suitable for use with potable water, while its compact design allows for easy installation in tight spaces. |
Working Principle | The Double Check Backflow Preventer operates through two independent check valves: First Check Valve: Prevents backflow by closing when downstream pressure exceeds supply pressure. Second Check Valve: Acts as a secondary barrier, ensuring additional protection in case the first valve fails. Shut-Off Valves: Integrated isolation valves allow for easy testing and maintenance without disrupting the water supply. |
Key Features | Lead-Free Copper Construction:Compliant with NSF/ANSI 372 and Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) requirements.Resists corrosion and ensures long-term durability in potable water systems. Double Check Valve Design:Two independently operating check valves provide redundant protection against backflow.Test cocks for easy field testing and maintenance. Compact & Lightweight:Space-saving design ideal for residential and commercial installations.Easy to install in horizontal or vertical orientations.Low Pressure Drop:Optimized flow path minimizes pressure loss, ensuring efficient water supply. Compliance & Certifications:Meets ASSE 1015, CSA B64.6, and NSF/ANSI 372 standards for backflow prevention devices. |
Operational Advantages | Reliable Protection: Dual check valves ensure fail-safe backflow prevention. Easy Maintenance: Test cocks allow for quick field testing without disassembly. Corrosion Resistance: Copper construction ensures longevity in potable water systems. Cost-Effective: Low installation and maintenance costs compared to RPZ devices. |
Why Choose us | Compliance: Meets all major industry standards for backflow prevention. Durability: Lead-free copper construction resists corrosion and extends service life.
