GB type according to EN1717/ type 2 according to DIN1988 part 4
Product specification sheet
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 2 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 of this type can be used to provide
protection up to and including liquid category 4 (toxic, very toxic,
carcinogenic and radioactive substances).
Special Features
• DIN/DVGW approvals in all connection sizes
• 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
Construction
The mechanical disconnectors comprises:
• Housing with pressure gauge
• Outlet differential pressure transducer
• Threaded union connectors
• Hydraulically controlled changeover valve
• Pressure shock damper
• Valve insert with spring
• Discharge connection
• Spring bonnet
• Spindle guide with double O-ring seal
Materials
• Red bronze housing
• Brass union nuts
• Red bronze threaded union connectors (brass for 2")
• High quality synthetic material spring bonnet
• Red bronze changeover valve
• NBR seals
• High grade corrosion resistant synthetic material for other

R295H Mechanical disconnector hydraulic actuated
Method of Operation
Mechanical disconnectors this type are normally in the shutoff
position.
When the outlet pressure drops due to water consumption, the
differential pressure in the disconnector rises. If the differential
pressure rises above 0.5 bar, the hydraulic operator causes the
control valve to changeover the mechanical disconnectors into
the flow position. When the water consumption stops, the differential pressure decreases and the differential pressure transducer transmits a signal to the control valve, which then returns the
disconnector to the normal shutoff position.

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
• Install a strainer upstream of the mechanical disconnector
o To protect the mechanical disconnector from dirt
• Mechanical disconnectors must not be fitted in any areas or
ducts where poisonous gases or vapours may be present or
where flooding can occur
• If pressure shock is anticipated in the outlet side of the disconnector, a pressure shock damper or expansion vessel
must be fitted on the system downstream of the disconnector

Typical Applications
Mechanical disconnectors of this type are best suited for commercial and industrial applications.
However they can also be used for supplies to residential buildings within the scope of their specification.
The following are some typical applications:
• Chemical mixing plant
• Chemical cleaning appliances
• Softening and deacidification plant without DVGW approval.
Regeneration with and without acid and alkaline solutions. Disinfection with Formalin
• Film development plant without DVGW certification
•Galvanic bath
• Soda machines
• Boilers and automatic pressure fermentation equipment
• Heating system filling assemblies without DVGW approval,
water without inhibitors
