Safeguard your commercial or industrial fire protection assembly and municipal water supply with the Ames Backflows 4" 4000SSLG Reduced Pressure Backflow Preventer Valve. This essential suppression component installs directly into your fire system network to isolate hazards and prevent contaminated water from reversing into the potable public supply during a fire event.

Engineered to comply with strict life safety mandates, this valve satisfies code requirements outlined in NFPA 13 for fire sprinkler system installation and NFPA 25 for routine water-based fire protection system inspection, testing, and maintenance. The reduced pressure zone mechanism reliably blocks hazardous backflow under both back-pressure and back-siphonage conditions, ensuring continuous code compliance and protecting system integrity.

Key Features & Construction

  • Corrosion-Resistant Body: Fabricated from high-grade 4000SSLG stainless steel alloy to withstand demanding indoor and outdoor facility environments.
  • Durable Sealing: Equipped with high-grade EPDM elastomer seats that resist thermal cycling and chemical exposure for long-lasting leak protection.
  • High Pressure Operation: Rated for maximum working pressures up to 175 PSI to handle rigorous commercial facility demands.
  • Flexible Integration: Compatible with ANSI B16.1 flanged and AWWA C606 grooved end connections for straightforward piping layout integration.
  • Mounting Versatility: Supports horizontal and vertical upward flow mounting orientations to adapt to spatial constraints on the job site.
