OPERATING PRINCIPLE :

The controllable reduced pressure zone backflow preventer is comprised of: a body with an inspection cover, an upstream check valve (1), a downstream check valve (2), a discharge device (3).The two check valves divide three different zones, each of which at a different pressure: an upstream or inlet zone (A); an intermediate zone, also known as the reduced pressure zone (B); a downstream or outlet zone (C). Each of these has a test port for measuring pressure. A discharge device (3), is located in the lower part of the intermediate zone. The obturator of the discharge device is connected via the valve stem (4) to the diaphragm (5).This mobile unit is pushed upwards by the spring (6). The diaphragm (5) marks the limit of the top chamber (D), which is connected to the upstream zone by the channel (7). Normal flow conditions : Under conditions of normal flow, both check valves are open, while the pressure in the intermediate chamber (B) is always lower that the inlet pressure by at least 140 mbar due to the pressure loss caused by the check valve (1).In the top chamber (D), however, the pressure is the same as in the inlet zone.In this situation, the mobile unit consisting of the diaphragm (5), the valve stem (4) and the valve obturator (3) is pushed down by the push created by the difference in pressure acting on the diaphragm which is greater than that of the spring(6) acting in the opposite direction.The discharge valve is therefore held in the closed position.

No flow conditions : The check valves (1) and (2) are now closed. Since the pressure in the upstream zone and therefore also in the top chamber (D), is still at least 140 mbar higher than the pressure in the intermediate chamber (B), the discharge valve remains closed.

RREEFF.. 993300

OPERATING PRINCIPLE ( SUITE ) : Upstream pressure loss : Both check valves close as the pressure upstream drops. The discharge valve (3) opens when the difference in pressure ∆P,between the upstream and the intermediate zones falls, drops below 140 mbar.Under these conditions the action exerted by the pressure difference ∆P on the diaphragm (5), becomes weaker than that exerted by the spring (6), and the discharge valve (3) opens as aresult. Discharge then occurs until the body of the backflowpreventer is empty. When the situation returns to normal (pressure upstream greater than pressure downstream), the discharge valve closes and the backflow preventer is again ready to operate.

Downstream back pressure : If the pressure in the downstream zone increases until it is greater than the upstream pressure, the check valve (2) closes and therefore prevents water already delivered from returning back into the mains system. If the seal of the check valve (2), is slightly defective or in general terms there is any other type of fault in the backflow preventer, the device always interrupts (disconnects) the connection between the mains system and the receiving system. The backflow preventer has been designed with all construction details required for a properly functioning positive action device; the best possible safety conditions are therefore ensured under all conditions.

BACKFLOW :

Potable water fed from the mains supply may suffer from hazardous pollution caused mainly by contaminated fluids from plumbing systems flowing back directly into the mains supply. This phenomenon, termed “backflow” occurs when:

a) the pressure in the mains system is less that in the plumbing circuit receiving the supply (back syphonage). This situation may occur when there is a pipe breaking in the mains system or when demand on the mains supply from consumers is very heavy.

b) the pressure in the plumbing circuit receiving the supply rises (back pressure) due, for example, to water being pumped from a well.

Risk assessment. Given the potential dangers of the phenomenon and the requirements of current regulations, the risk of pollution from backflow must be assessed on the basis of the type of system and the characteristic of the fluid that flows in it. An appropriate backflow prevention device must be selected on the basis of that assessment performed by the system designer and the mains supplier. The device must be located along the supply line at those points at risk of backflow which would be hazardous to human health. The protection can be provided by inserting a backflow preventer at critical points in the circuit at the inlet from the mains supply or in the internal plumbing system. This will prevent polluted water from flowing back in all systems for which direct connection to the mains or an internal supply is considered hazardous.

BACKFLOW PREVENTER USE, BA TYPE ( According to EN 1717 and EN 12729 ) :

RREEFF.. 993300

INSTALLATION :

Backflow preventers must be installed by qualified personnel in accordance with current norms and regulations. They must be installed downstream from a shut-off valve and from a strainer with a discharge that can be inspected and another shut-off valve must be fitted downstream from it. The unit must be installed in an accessible position, appropriately located to avoid possible immersion due to accidental flooding (see diagram). The device must be fitted horizontally. The discharge tundish must comply with standard EN 1717 and be connected to the sewage piping. Before installing the backflow preventer and the strainer, the pipework must be flushed with a large flow rate. When used to protect the mains supply, backflow preventers must be installed downstream from the water meter, whereas when used to protect the potable water supply system for internal usage, they are installed at the limit of the zone where pollution might occur, e.g. central heating systems, garden irrigation systems, etc.

Annual maintenance must be done once per year by a professional If these operations are not done, the product can’t be guaranteed.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL GUIDELINES :

Ensure that the check valves to be used are appropriate for the conditions of the installation (type of fluid,pressure and temperature).

Be sure to have enough valves to be able to isolate the sections of piping as well as the appropriate equipment for maintenance and repair.

Ensure that the valves to be installed are of correct strenght to be able to support the capacity of their usage.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS :

Before installing the check valves, clean and remove any objects from the pipes (in particular bits of sealing and metal) which could obstruct and block the valves.

Ensure that both connecting pipes either side of the check valve (upstream and downstream) are aligned (if they’re not,the valves may not work correctly).

Make sure that the two sections of the pipe (upstream and downstream) match, the check valve unit will not absorb any gaps.Any distortions in the pipes may affect the thightness of the connection,the working of the check valve and can even cause a rupture.To be sure,place the kit in position to ensure the assembling will work.

Before starting the fitting, ensure that the threads and tapping are clean.

If sections of piping do not have their final support in place,they should be temporarily fixed.This is to avoid unnecessary strain on the check valve.

If there is a direction changing or if there’s another material, it’s better to take away the check valve so that it is outside the turbulence area ( between 3 and 5 times the ND before and after ).
