Reduced Pressure Zone Assemblies

Sizes: 14" 2" (5 50mm)
Series 919 Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Assemblies are designed to protect potable water supplies in accordance with national plumbing codes and water authority requirements. This series can be used in a variety of installations, including the prevention of health hazard cross-connections or for containment at the service line entrance. This series features two poppet style check valves, replaceable check seats, with an intermediate relief valve. Its compact modular design facilitates easy maintenance and assembly access. Sizes 14" 1" (5 25mm) shutoffs have tee handles.
919QT 34" (20mm)

Features
 Separate access covers for the check valves and relief valve for ease of maintenance Top entry-all check internals easily accessible All rubber elastomers of chloramine resistant material  Check valve poppet assemblies are fully guided by innovative plastic seat guide  Replaceable push-in check valve and relief valve seats eliminates threads from the water way  EZ twist relief valve cover quarter-turn locking joint captures the spring load during repair to facilitate disassembly  Innovative check valve plastic cover bushing provides trouble free guiding of the check valve poppet  Bottom mounted relief valve provides reduced installation clearances Compact, space saving design No special tools required for servicing  Top mounted test cocks for ease in testing and reduced installation clearances   Standardly furnished with NPT body connections

Specifications
A Reduced Pressure Zone Assembly shall be installed at each potential health hazard location to prevent backflow due to backsiphonage and/or backpressure. The assembly shall consist of a pressure differential relief valve located in a zone between two positive seating check valves. Seats and seat discs shall be replaceable in both check valves and the relief valve without the use of special tools. Service of all internal check valve components shall be through top mounted access bronze covers threaded to the main valve body. The check valve poppet assembly shall be guided via the use of a corrosion resistant plastic guide. The check valve and relief valve seats shall be push-in type. The relief valve cover shall be bronze construction secured with stainless steel bolts and shall utilize a quarter-turn locking joint to capture the spring load of the relief valve. The relief valve shall have an internal sensing line to sense the inlet water supply. All rubber elastomers shall be of chloramine resistant material. The assembly shall also include two resilient seated isolation valves, four top-mounted resilient seated test cocks and an air gap drain fitting. The assembly shall be a Watts Series 919.
