1/2 in Air Gap for RPZ Assemblies Corrosion-Resistant Backflow Prevention for Fire & Plumbing Pros

The 1/2" Air Gap for RPZ Assemblies is a corrosion-resistant metal plumbing part designed for fire protection and plumbing professionals who require reliable backflow prevention. It ensures a critical physical separation in Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) assemblies, safeguarding potable water systems from contamination.

• Durable Metal Construction: Crafted from corrosion-resistant materials to withstand harsh commercial and industrial environments, promoting longevity and reduced maintenance.
• Exact 1/2" Air Gap: Precisely maintains separation as mandated by plumbing codes, effectively preventing backflow and cross-contamination.
• Regulatory Compliance: Meets standards such as ASSE 1013, ASSE 1015, NFPA 13, and NFPA 25, guaranteeing compliance for fire suppression and potable water systems.
• Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with UL-listed and FM-approved RPZ backflow preventers, adaptable to various piping materials including brass, copper, and ductile iron.
• Precision Machining: Manufactured with tight tolerances ensuring a secure fit and consistent performance within RPZ assemblies.
• Installation Versatility: Suitable for use in mechanical rooms or subterranean vaults where RPZ assemblies are typically installed, supporting both new installations and retrofits.

This air gap component plays a vital role in water safety by creating an unbroken physical barrier, eliminating risks associated with back-siphonage or backpressure contamination. Ideal for plumbing contractors and fire protection specialists, it enhances system integrity by preventing cross-contamination while ensuring adherence to strict code requirements. Its robust metal design not only reduces wear over time but also simplifies the installation process, making it a dependable choice for maintaining potable water purity in commercial and industrial fire protection systems.
