Assembly
Installation Guidelines
- 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
Assembly in structions
-
Thoroughly flush pipework
-
Ensure that connections on back flow preventer are clean
-
Install backflow preventer
-
Install in horizontal pipework with discharge connection directed downwards
● Note flow direction (indicated by arrow)
● Install without tension or bending stresses -
Provide a straight section of pipework of at least five times the nominal valve size after the backflow preventer
-
Maintain assembly distances
-
Load the eye screw only in axial direction
-
Connect discharge pipework close coupled and without tight bends according to connection dimensions (see table)
-
Install discharge pipework in such a way that the discharge connection and the discharge valve can be removed for inspection
Maintenance
In order to comply with EN 806-5, water
fixtures must be inspected and serviced on an annual basis. As all maintenance
work must be carried out by an installation company, it is recommended that a
servicing contract should be taken out.
In accordance with EN 806-5, the following measures must be taken:
Inspection
The inspection should also include ancillary equipment such as strainers and shut-off valves.
Testing inlet check valve
Take note of the instructions of the test control unit TKA295
- Procedure according to instruction of the test control unit TKA295
Testing discharge valve
Take note of the instructions of the test control unit TKA295
- Procedure according to instruction of the test control unit TKA295
Quick test for the discharge valve:
- Lower the inlet pressure
– if the discharge valve opens (it drops), the function is o.k.
Testing outlet check valve
Take note of the instructions of the test control unit TKA295
- Procedure according to instruction of the test control unit TKA295
Maintenance
Do not use any cleansers that contain solvents and/or alcohol for cleaning the
plastic parts, because this can cause damage to the plastic components – water
damage could result.
Detergents must not be allowed to enter the environment or the sewerage
system!
Discharge valve
-
Close shut-off valve on inlet
-
Close shut off valve on outlet
-
Release pressure using the three ball valves
-
Unscrew pressure control line
-
Open screws on the lid
-
Remove cover
-
Push clamp together and remove
-
Remove discharge valve upwards
● Clean or replace as required -
Grease O-rings for drinking water installation well with admissible greasing agent, replace damaged O-rings
-
Reassemble in reverse order
-
Test function (see 5.1 Inspection)
Check valve
-
Close shut-off valve on inlet
-
Close shut-off valve on outlet
-
Release pressure using the three ball valves
-
Open screws on the lid
-
Remove cover
-
Push clamp together and remove
-
Twist securing ring out of the receiving slot
CAUTION!
! Risk of injury – Check valves are under spring tension! -
Pull out the check valve
● disassemble the outlet check valve first, and the inlet check valve
● Clean or replace as required
● Leaking check valves must be replaced.
● If the edge seals are worn, you can switch the cases of the two check valves with each other (see conversion check valves) -
Reassemble in reverse order
● Grease the O-ring on the check valve with greasing agent admissible for drinking water
● Do not damage `O’ ring during assembly
● Securing ring Pos. 7 (picture 5.2.2.) that the opening is facing downwards -
Test function (see 5.1 Inspection)
Conversion check valves
CAUTION!
Risk of injury – Check valves are under spring tension!
- Disassemble both check valves by loosening the hexagon bolt
- Assemble the housing of the inlet check valve with the components of the outlet backflow preventer
- Assemble the housing of the outlet check valve with the components of the inlet check valve
Disposal
Observe the local requirements regarding correct waste recycling/disposal!
Troubleshooting
Problem | Cause | Remedy |
---|---|---|
Discharge valve opens without apparent reason | Pressure strokes in water | |
supply system | Install a pressure reducing valve upstream the backflow |
preventer
Fluctuating inlet pressure| Install a pressure reducing valve upstream the
backflow preventer
Inlet check valve and/or discharge valves are dirty| Remove check valve or
discharge valve and clean it
Leaky inlet check valve| Replace check valve
Discharge valve don’t close| Deposits on valve seat| Remove discharge valve,
clean or replace it
Damaged ’o’ring| Remove discharge valve and replace ’o’ring
Leaky discharge valve| Remove discharge valve, clean or replace it
Discharge valve don’t open| Blocked pressure control pipe| Remove control pipe
and clean it
