909RPDA-OSY-GPM-FS 8

This 8 inch reduced pressure detector backflow preventer assembly prevents the reverse flow of fire protection system substances from being pumped or siphoned into the potable water supply due to backsiphonage and or backpressure. This assembly consists of an epoxy coated cast iron body, OSY resilient seated gate valves, captured spring check valves, replaceable stainless steel seats, top mounted test cocks, a pressure differential relief valve, and comes furnished with a GPM meter to detect underground leaks and unauthorized water use. The coating on this backflow assembly uses ArmorTek(R), a patented 3-part advanced epoxy coating system designed to limit both microbial induced (MIC) and exposed metal substrate corrosion. This backflow assembly contains a flood sensor with SentryPlus Alert(R) technology to detect excessive water discharges from the relief valve. When activated through an add-on sensor connection kit, the flood sensor relays a signal that triggers notification of potential flooding to service personnel. The add-on sensor connection kit is available for building management systems and cellular communication.
