909M1

The 1 1/4" Watts 909 Series Reduced Pressure Zone Assemblies were manufactured from 1979 and are still currently in production. In 1989, the M1 modification was added to the 909. Both the 909 and 909M1 use the same internal parts. The 909 is a bronze bodied device. Watts also made a hot water version of the 909 which was distinguished by the suffix "HW" and is approved of temperatures up to 210F. It features two check covers and a seperate relief valve cover. Check valves are self contained and the relief valve is a stem type. In 2010, the LF909 was introduced to comply with the new "Lead Free" laws. All repair parts were converted to lead free in 2013. Lead free repair parts will fit both regular 909 and lead free LF909 models. All 909 models have replaceable seats and require no special tools for repair.
