Specifications
Pressure Vacuum Breakers
A pressure anti-siphon vacuum breaker shall be installed where
indicated on the plans to prevent the backsiphonage of contaminated water. This assembly is not to be used where there
is a possibility that a back pressure condition may develop. The
assembly will incorporate an acetal bonnet with silicone rubber
O-ring seal and silicone rubber seat disc. The valve shall have
replaceable seats. Check assembly shall be guided over its full
stroke by V notch guides.
The assembly shall include an internal, built-in relief valve
designed to protect the internal components and the backflow
body from freezing. The relief valve shall be repeatable, automatically re-seating when the pressure within the valve is below
the set point of the freeze relief valve. The Lead Free* FreezeResistant Pressure Vacuum Breakers shall comply with state
codes and standards, where applicable, requiring reduced lead
content.
The assembly shall meet the requirements of ANSI/ASSE
Standard 1020.
The valve shall be a Watts Series LF800M4FR.

Installations
This valve is designed for installation in a continuous pressure
potable water supply system 12" above the highest point of the
downstream piping. The valve must be installed with the supply
connected to the bottom and in a vertical position. Allow adequate
space for periodic inspection, servicing or testing. The valve should
not be installed in an area where freezing or spillage will cause
damage. Adequate drainage/freeze protection must be provided in
cold weather applications. 1.5psi (.10 bar) must be exerted against
the float spring to seal the float and air inlet. Do not undersize supply and discharge piping.

NOTICE
Vacuum breakers are not designed, tested or
approved to protect against backpressure backflow or water hammer shock. For protection against backpressure backflow, install
Watts LF009 Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer. For
Protection against water hammer shock install a Watts Series
LF15 Water Hammer Arrestor utilizing good plumbing practice.
