3\” Backflow Preventer, Reduced Pressure Principal, Lead-Free , Stainless Steel Body with Butterfly Valves Grooved Connections APOLLO 4ALF20009 DESCRIPTIONThe Apollo Model RPLF 4A Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Preventers consist of two independently acting, TriForce center stem guided check valves with a differential pressure relief valve located between the check valves. The unit is designed to give maximum protection against backflow of health or non-health hazard fluids by either back-pressure or back-siphonage. The durable domestic stainless steel units (2-1/2-8) and the FDA epoxy coated ductile iron units (10 and 12) are easily maintained in the line without any special tools. The TriForce check valves operate with a spring assist in the flowing condition to provide excellent flow rates which are documented by an independent laboratory.
