The Watts 1-1/2" LF909M1-QT-FS Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) Backflow Preventer Assembly is engineered to provide reliable cross-connection protection for high-hazard commercial, institutional, and industrial potable water supplies. Designed to prevent dangerous backpressure and backsiphonage, this assembly uses a compact, dual-check inline design with an integrated differential pressure relief valve and built-in flood sensor, helping protect your system from upstream or downstream pressure fluctuations.
Key Features
- High-Hazard Protection: Certified for health-hazard containment applications, helping prevent cross-contamination from entering the potable water supply.
- Quarter-Turn Shutoffs: Equipped with two quarter-turn ball valve shutoffs with lever handles and top-mounted test cocks for fast, straightforward field diagnostics.
- SentryPlus Alert Flood Sensor: Built-in sensor detects excessive water discharge from the relief valve, helping alert facility personnel before minor issues become costly flooding events. (Add-on connection kit required for BMS or cellular alert notifications.)
- Modular, Easy-Maintenance Design: Compact construction allows in-line servicing of checks and relief seats without removing the assembly from the pipeline — no special tools required.
