   with due regard to safety and risk of danger.
4. Note that the appliance is exclusively for use in the applications detailed in these installation instructions. Any other use will not be considered to comply with requirements and would invalidate the warranty.
5. Please take note that any assembly, commissioning, servicing and adjustment work may only be carried out by authorized persons.
6. Immediately rectify any malfunctions which may influence safety.

2. Functional description

BA type backflow preventers are divided into three pressure zones. The pressure in zone ① is higher than in zone ②, which in turn is higher than in zone ③. A discharge valve is connected to zone ② which opens at the latest when the differential pressure between zones ① and ② falls to 0.14 bar. The water from zone ② discharges to atmosphere. In this way the danger of back pressure or back syphonage into the supply network is prevented. The pipework connection is interrupted and the drinking water network is protected.

3. Application

Backflow preventers of this type are suitable for the protection of drinking water systems against back pressure, back flow and back syphonage. They are used to protect the temporary water tapping of standpipes on events or construction sites. Fluids up to and including liquid category 4 to EN 1717 are protected.

7. Assembly

7.1 Installations Guidelines

• The backflow preventer and the distributor head must be connected to one another non-detachably with an - according to the local drinking water standards - approved glue!
• Directly connected to distributor
• Backflow preventers of this type have an integral strainer which protects the device from the ingress of dirt. With highly polluted water a fine filter should be installed upstream to ensure the correct function of the device.
• The installation location should be protected against frost

7.2 Assembly instructions

1. Close shutoff valves
2. Screw backflow preventer in distributor
3. Fit C-coupling and flexible tube
4. The appliance is ready for use
5. Open shutoff valves

8. Maintenance

We recommend a planned maintenance contract with an installation company

Disassemble ball valves after maintenance!

8.1 Inspection

• Frequency: every 6 month (depending on local operating conditions)
• To be carried out by an installation company
  Inspection with a test control unit and maintenance-set (see accessories)

8.1.1 Testing discharge valve

For testing the shutoff valve must be fully open. Take note of the instructions of the test control unit TKA295 or TK295

1. Fit temporary cover on c-coupling.
2. Procedure according to instruction of the test control unit TKA295 resp. TK295

Quick test for the discharge valve:

• Lower the inlet pressure o if the discharge valve opens (it drops), the function is o.k.

8.1.2 Testing outlet check valve

For testing the shutoff valve must be fully open. Take note of the instructions of the test control unit TKA295 or TK295

1. Fit temporary cover on c-coupling.
2. Procedure according to instruction of the test control unit TKA295 resp. TK295

8.2 Maintenance

• Frequency: at least once a year (depending on local operating conditions)
• To be carried out by an installation company

8.2.1 Cartridge insert

1. Close inlet shutoff valve

o Pressure in backflow preventer relieves

1. Unscrew the plug
2. Exchange cartridge insert, lip seal and filter o push down the cartridge insert till it snaps in

• Don't disassemble cartridge insert to individual parts!

• Reassemble in reverse order

• Test function (see chapter inspection)

8.2.2 Check valve

1. Close inlet shutoff valve o Pressure in backflow preventer relieves
2. Exchange check valve
3. Test function (see chapter inspection)

8.3 Cleaning

• To be carried out by an installation company
  To be carried out by the operator

If necessary, the cartridge insert and the strainer can be cleaned.

Observe the local requirements regarding correct waste recycling/disposal!

1. Troubleshooting

Disturbance	Cause	Remedy
Discharge valve opens without apparent reason	Pressure strokes in water supply system	Install a pressure reducing valve upstream the backflow preventer
	Fluctuating inlet pressure	Install a pressure reducing valve upstream the backflow preventer
	Cartridge insert is contaminated	Remove cartridge insert and exchange it
Discharge valve don’t close	Deposits on valve seat	Remove cartridge insert and clean or exchange it
	Damaged ‘o’ring	Remove cartridge insert and exchange it
	Leaky discharge valve	Remove cartridge insert and clean or exchange it
Flow is to low	Inlet strainer is blocked	Remove strainer and clean it
