Specifications
A Double Check Valve Assembly shall be installed at referenced cross-connections to prevent the backflow of polluted water into the potable water supply. The cross-connections shall be determined by local inspection authority for use where a high hazard situation does not exist. Valve shall feature modular check assemblies with center stem guiding. Each check module shall have a captured spring and be accessible through a bolted cover plate. Seats shall be replaceable without special tools. It shall be a complete assembly including tight-closing resilient seated shutoff valves, test cocks, and a strainer is recommended. The Lead Free* Double Check Assemblies shall comply with state codes and standards, where applicable, requiring reduced lead content. The assembly shall meet the requirements of ASSE No. 1015; AWWA C510-92; CSA B64.5 and UL Classified File No. EX3185. Approved by the Foundation for Cross-Connection Control and Hydraulic Research at the University of Southern California. Assembly shall be a Watts Series LF709.
