The Apollo Model DC4A Double Check Valves are designed to prevent contamination of the potable water supply due to back-siphonage or backpressure from substances that are objectionable, but non-health hazards. The modular check valve cptured spring cartridges have replaceable seats and reversible silicone seat discs. Apollo ball valve shut-offs with stainless steel handles and nuts are standard. During normal flow conditions, the two check valves are held off their seats, supplying water downstream. Each check valve is designed to maintain a minimum of 1 psi across the valve during normal operation. Should the downstream pressure increase to within 1 psi of supply pressure, both check valves will close to prevent a backflow condition. No special tools required. 5 year, domestic warranty.
