Typical Installation
Local codes shall govern installation requirements. Unless
otherwise specified, the assembly shall be mounted at a
minimum of 12" (305mm) above the highest piping or outlet
downstream of the device. Install with adequate drain and
sufficient side clearance for testing and maintenance. The
installation shall be made so that no part of the unit can be
submerged. A pressure vacuum breaker cannot be installed
where back-pressure could occur or where spillage of water
from vent could cause damage.
Specifications
The Pressure Vacuum Breaker shall be ASSE 1020 approved, and supplied with full port ball valves. The main body and bon-
net shall be bronze (ASTM B584), the loaded-air inlet shall use an silicone elastomer spring and seat disc. The entire assem-
bly shall be accessible for maintenance and testing without removing the device from the line. For non-potable applications
only. The Pressure Vacuum Breaker shall be a Zurn Wilkins Model 720A.
