BA type backflow preventers are divided into three pressure
zones. The pressure in zone is higher than in zone ,
which in turn is higher than in zone . A discharge valve is
connected to zone which opens at the latest when the
differential pressure between zones and drops to
0.14 bar. The water from zone discharges to atmosphere,
both check valves close and therefore separate zone from
zone and . In this way the danger of back pressure or
back syphonage into the supply network is prevented. The
pipework connection is interrupted and the drinking water
network is protected.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Setup requirements
•Install shut-off valves before and after backflow
preventer
•Install backflow preventer downstream of the filter or
strainer
–This protects the appliance against dirt
•Install in horizontal pipework with the discharge valve
downwards
•Ensure good access
–Simplifies maintenance and inspection
•In order to avoid flooding, it is recommended to arrange
a permanent, professionally dimensioned wastewater
connection
•The installation environment should be protected
against frost and ventilated well
•Install discharge pipework which has adequate capacity
•These armatures need to be maintained regularly
