Aalberts integrated piping systems’ “Apollo”® backflow solutions: safeguarding water quality with sustainable protection
Aalberts integrated piping systems’ (IPS), Apollo backflow product line delivers protection against water contamination across a variety of applications.
The Apollo backflow product line includes technologies such as double-check valve assemblies (DC4A, DCLF4A) for low-hazard applications and reduced pressure zone 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-in-12-in, they are suitable for heating, cooling, and potable water applications.
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.
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 minimising water waste and potential damage. Wide-ranging size options, from 1/2-in to 2-in, accommodate various system designs and flow requirements across commercial, industrial, and municipal applications.
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.
