Application
Mechanical disconnectors of this type are suitable for the protection of drinking water systems as required by EN 1717 "The technical regulation of drinking water systems" and correspond to
DIN1988 part 4 type 1 construction.
Their purpose is to protect systems against back pressure, back
flow and back syphonage of non-potable water into the public
water supply network.
Mechanical disconnectors can be used to provide protection up
to and including liquid category 3 (slightly toxic substances).
Mechanical disconnectors therefore offer better protection than
check valves.
Special Features
• DIN/DVGW and SVGW approvals in all connection sizes
• Low pressure loss and high flow rate
• Optimal protection of the drinking water supply system
• Enhanced protection against back pressure, back flow and
back syphonage into the water supply network
• Shutoff position visually indicated on the spring bonnet
• Compact construction
• Standardised discharge connection
• Meets KTW recommendations for potable water

R295 Mechanical disconnector with union connectors direct actuated
Method of Operation
GA-type mechanical disconnectors are safety valves that remain
in the flow position and change to the shutoff position only when
the inlet pressure falls below the design opening pressure.
The inlet pressure operates on the annular surface of the valve piston and pushes it against the force of the spring bringing the piston to the open position. If the supply pressure falls below the
opening pressure needed to overcome the spring force (for example because of a broken pipe or during service work by the
supply undertaking) then the integral spring pushes the valve into
the closed position.

Installation Example
R295 Mechanical disconnector with union connectors direct actuated
Installation Guidelines
• Install shutoff valves
• Install in horizontal pipework with spring bonnet directed upwards
o This orientation ensures optimum performance
• Ensure good access
o Pressure gauge can be read off easily
o Simplifies maintenance and inspection
• No further unprotected mains water supply may be connected downstream of the mechanical disconnector
• The mechanical disconnector must not be fitted in any areas
or ducts where poisonous gases or vapours may be present
or where flooding can occur
