Instalace
Kontroly před instalací
- Verify that the model number and size match the system requirements.
- Inspect the unit for any signs of damage from shipping.
- Ujistěte se, že jsou k dispozici všechny potřebné nástroje a materiály.
- Confirm compliance with local plumbing codes for backflow prevention devices.
Montáž a orientace
The Zurn 1-950XLT2 must be installed in a horizontal position with the test cocks facing upwards to allow for proper testing and drainage. Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for maintenance and testing.
Připojení potrubí
- Flush the supply line thoroughly to remove any debris before connecting the backflow preventer.
- Install the unit with the flow arrow on the body pointing in the direction of water flow.
- Use appropriate pipe thread sealant on all threaded connections. Avoid overtightening.
- Ensure the shut-off valves are in the closed position during installation.
- Gradually open the upstream shut-off valve to slowly fill the device and system, allowing air to escape through the test cocks.
- Once filled, slowly open the downstream shut-off valve.
Operace
The Zurn 1-950XLT2 operates automatically to prevent backflow. Under normal flow conditions, both check valves are open. If a backpressure or back-siphonage condition occurs, the check valves close to prevent reverse flow.
Uzavírací ventily
The unit is equipped with two full port shut-off valves, one upstream and one downstream. These valves allow for isolation of the backflow preventer for maintenance or testing without shutting down the entire water supply.
- To close: Turn the green handle 90 degrees until it is perpendicular to the pipe.
- To open: Turn the green handle 90 degrees until it is parallel to the pipe.
Údržba
Regular maintenance and testing are essential to ensure the continued proper functioning of the backflow preventer and compliance with local regulations.
Annual Testing
The Zurn 1-950XLT2 must be tested annually by a certified backflow prevention device tester. The four ball valve test cocks are provided for this purpose. Refer to local codes for specific testing requirements and frequencies.
Servis
The entire unit is designed to be serviceable in-line. This includes the Noryl replaceable seats and silicone rubber check discs. If repairs are needed, use only genuine Zurn replacement parts.
- Isolate the unit by closing both upstream and downstream shut-off valves.
- Depressurize the unit by opening the test cocks.
- Follow the specific service instructions provided in the detailed service manual (available from Zurn) for disassembling and reassembling the check valve modules.
- After servicing, close test cocks, slowly open shut-off valves, and re-test the unit.
Odstraňování problémů
| Problém | Možná příčina | Řešení |
|---|---|---|
| Water leakage from test cocks | Test cock not fully closed; debris in test cock; faulty test cock. | Ensure test cock is fully closed. Flush test cock. Replace test cock if damaged. |
| Continuous discharge from relief valve (if applicable, though this is a DCVA) | Not applicable for Double Check Valve Assembly (DCVA). This symptom is typical for a Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) assembly. | N/A (DCVA does not have a relief valve). |
| Failure during annual test | Worn check valve seats or discs; debris lodged in check valves; damaged springs. | Isolate unit, disassemble, inspect, clean, and replace worn components (seats, discs, springs). Re-test after service. |
| Reduced flow or pressure drop | Partially closed shut-off valves; debris accumulation within the unit or upstream piping. | Ensure shut-off valves are fully open. Isolate and flush the system. Inspect check valves for debris. |
For issues not listed here, or if troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem, contact a certified plumbing professional or Zurn technical support.
