Connection and Compatibility

The 10 inch Watts 957RPDA backflow preventer is designed for horizontal installation in potable water systems requiring protection against health hazard contamination from back-siphonage and backpressure. Its 150 Pound ANSI/AWWA Class D Flanged connections ensure secure integration into your pipeline.

Flood Sensor Connectivity

  • The integrated SentryPlus Alert® flood sensor detects excessive water discharges from the relief valve.
  • An add-on connection kit is required to activate the flood sensor's alert feature.
  • Connection kit options include BMS (Building Management System), cellular communication, or the Sensor Control Monitor (for integration with BAS via RS-485 Modbus or Nexa® platform via Wi-Fi).
  • Without a connection kit, the sensor operates as a passive component without communication.
