Description

Technical Specifications (Material Focus)
The 6" Double Check Assembly with Grooved Butterfly Valve is constructed for durability and long-term performance in fire protection and potable water systems. The main body is fabricated from fusion-bonded epoxy-coated ductile iron meeting ASTM A536 standards, offering corrosion resistance suitable for subterranean and mechanical room installations. Internal components include 300-series stainless steel springs and fasteners designed to withstand operational stresses without corrosion. The check modules utilize high-strength glass-filled Noryl™ thermoplastic, providing dimensional stability and chemical resistance. To ensure reliable sealing, the assembly uses reversible and replaceable EPDM elastomer seats that maintain integrity across varying temperature ranges.

Regulatory Compliance
This assembly complies with strict industry standards for backflow prevention and fire protection:

UL Listed: Certified under UL 1469 for fire service water control valves.
FM Approved: Endorsed by Factory Mutual for fire protection applications.
ASSE 1015: Meets the American Society of Sanitary Engineering standard for backflow preventers.
AWWA C510: Adheres to American Water Works Association standards relevant to double check valve assemblies.
NFPA Compliance: Designed for compliance with NFPA 13 and NFPA 25, supporting installation and inspection/testing requirements.

Operational Compatibility
The assembly is engineered for optimal performance under operational conditions common in fire protection and water supply systems:

Pressure Rating: Rated for a maximum working pressure of 175 PSI (12.1 bar), suitable for both low and high-pressure fire service lines.
Temperature Range: Operates effectively between 33°F and 140°F (0.5°C to 60°C), accommodating typical environmental and system conditions.
Connection Type: Equipped with grooved end connections conforming to AWWA C606 standards, facilitating rapid installation and maintenance.
Configuration: Compatible with both horizontal and vertical (upward flow) orientations, enhancing system design flexibility.

This 6" Double Check Assembly with Grooved Butterfly Valve is designed to prevent backflow of non-health hazard pollutants into potable water systems, specifically supporting fire protection and commercial water supply applications. Its grooved butterfly valve design streamlines installation and maintenance while providing precise flow control. This assembly is particularly suited for engineers and fire system designers seeking compliant, durable backflow prevention devices that align with NFPA mandates.

By integrating robust materials and tested components, this product addresses common challenges such as corrosion, wear, and flow disruption over time. Its use of glass-filled thermoplastic check modules and EPDM seats ensures minimal pressure loss and consistent sealing performance, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

For facility managers and contractors, the grooved connection style offers clear advantages: speed of installation, simplified alignment, and compatibility with existing grooved piping systems. These features make the assembly especially advantageous when upgrading fire protection systems or implementing preventive plumbing designs in commercial and multi-family residential buildings.

In scenarios where compliance with NFPA 13 sprinkler system installations and NFPA 25 inspection schedules is critical, this assembly provides pre-drilled test cocks to facilitate differential pressure testing and annual performance verification. This ensures both regulatory adherence and operational reliability, mitigating risk for property owners and fire protection professionals.
