• Reduced Pressure (RP) Principle Backflow Prevention: This valve is a Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Preventer, offering a high level of protection against both backsiphonage and backpressure, suitable for situations where a potential high health hazard exists due to contaminated water. This is essential for isolating stagnant or potentially contaminated water in a fire sprinkler system from the clean public water supply.
• OS&Y (Outside Screw and Yoke) Design: The OS&Y feature provides a clear visual indication of the valve's open or closed status, which is vital for quick assessment and management of water supply during emergencies. The gate valve mechanism moves perpendicularly to the water's path, and when fully open, it is entirely out of the water's flow, contributing to lower friction and better hydraulic performance compared to some other valve types.
• Durable Bronze Construction: Crafted from high-quality bronze, this valve is engineered to resist corrosion and wear, ensuring a long lifespan and dependable service in various environmental conditions. The sturdy build guarantees resilience, a critical factor for consistent fire protection.
• Lead-Free (LF) Compliant: The "LF" designation indicates that this valve meets lead-free standards, making it suitable for installations connected to potable water systems. Conbraco offers a range of Apollo® products with lead-free options to comply with codes and legislation.
• "N" Pattern Configuration: While specific details on the "N" pattern are not provided, this likely refers to a compact or specific piping configuration that optimizes space and installation in residential settings.
