Aalberts integrated piping systems (IPS), a global leader in advanced integrated piping systems for the distribution and control of liquids and gasses, highlights its “Apollo” backflow product line, delivering superior protection against water contamination across a variety of applications. Designed to meet stringent safety standards, “Apollo” backflow prevention solutions provide reliable, long-lasting performance to ensure the integrity of potable water systems.
With a focus on efficiency, serviceability, and compliance, the “Apollo” backflow product line includes industry-leading technologies such as double-check valve assemblies (DC4A, DCLF4A) for low-hazard applications and reduced pressure zone (RPZ) assemblies for high-hazard environments. These devices prevent back-siphonage and backpressure, effectively blocking contaminants from entering clean water lines. With size range options 2” – 12”, they are suitable for heating, cooling, and potable water applications, expanding their usage versatility across mechanical and water system designs.
Engineered for simplified maintenance, “Apollo” backflow preventers feature top-accessed modular check valve cartridges, allowing for in-line servicing without removing the valve from the system. Additional design enhancements, such as “Apollo” Press integration, captured springs, replaceable seats, and reversible silicone seat discs, extend product life while reducing operational costs. Ball valve shutoffs with stainless steel handles and nuts offer robust, corrosion-resistant performance, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding environments.
“Apollo” backflow preventers are designed for versatility and ease of installation. Their compact, efficient pressure vacuum breakers (PVBs) save space and simplify setup, making them ideal for high-capacity irrigation systems in critical-use environments like agriculture, golf courses, and campuses. Leak-detection technology maximizes system protection by minimizing water waste and potential damage. Wide-ranging size options, from 1/2“ to 2“, accommodate various system designs and flow requirements across commercial, industrial, and municipal applications.
Manufactured in the United States, “Apollo” backflow products align with Buy American Act (BAA) and Build America, Buy America (BABA) requirements, making them ideal for federally funded projects. Certified to NSF/ANSI, ASSE, and other industry standards, these products ensure regulatory compliance and facilitate approval for commercial projects. Their durable construction, available in bronze, stainless steel, and epoxy-coated iron, ensures longevity and performance even in the most challenging environments. A five-year factory warranty underscores Aalberts IPS’ commitment to quality and customer confidence.
