Testable Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer - NA Market

Testable Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer - NA Market

The backflow preventer can be used in all plumbing systems where there is danger of the potable water supply system being contaminated. It prevents an accidental reduction in the pressure in the distribution system from causing backflow from contaminated water in user installations.

The 574 series RPZ backflow preventer is ICC-ES certified to ASSE 1013, CSA B64.4, AWWA C511, NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 Drinking Water System Components-Health Effects, and NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 low lead laws. It meets codes IPC, IRC, NPC and UPC for use in accordance with the US and Canadian plumbing codes. The 574 comes complete with discharge air gap, all test ports are on top for easy access inspite of how the valve is mounted, union body connections make service and repair simple and fast, and a simple short list of parts is all that is required to do a rebuild.

Also available in combination with AutoFill™ pre-adjustable automatic filling valves, 1/2", 3/4" and 1" sizes.
