Flood Sensor Connectivity
- This backflow preventer assembly features a flood sensor with SentryPlus Alert® technology to detect excessive water discharges.
- To enable flood alerts and communication, an add-on sensor connection kit is required.
- The connection kit allows compatibility with Building Management Systems (BMS) and cellular network communication.
- Without the add-on connection kit, the flood sensor operates as a passive component and does not communicate alerts.

Additional Details
The Watts Series LF909 Reduced Pressure Zone Backflow Preventer Assembly with flood sensor provides cross-connection control protection for potable water supplies, preventing reverse flow of polluted water caused by backsiphonage and/or backpressure. It is ideal for continuous pressure piping applications and at cross-connections identified as health hazards.
This 2 1/2 inch assembly features Lead Free* construction and is designed without shutoff valves.
Corrosion Protection
- Features ArmorTek® coating technology, a patented three-part advanced epoxy system.
- Engineered to reduce microbial-induced corrosion (MIC) and protect exposed metal substrate.
- Coating is applied to both internal and external surfaces of the cast iron body.
Relief Valve Design
- Unique patented air-in/water-out relief valve design provides maximum discharge capacity during emergency conditions.
- Designed for superior performance when both checks are fouled under combined backsiphonage and backpressure.
- The relief valve is field reversible.
Flood Detection
- Includes a flood sensor with SentryPlus Alert® technology to detect excessive water discharges from the relief valve.
- The sensor relays a signal that triggers notification to facility personnel for corrective action, helping to limit flooding and costly damage.
- Alert features are activated with an add-on sensor connection kit, which is compatible with Building Management Systems (BMS) and cellular network communication.
- Without the connection kit, the sensor is a passive component with no communication capabilities.
Key Features
- Equipped with replaceable seats and stainless steel internal parts.
- Features captured spring check assemblies.
- Fused epoxy coated and lined checks enhance durability.
- Industrial-strength sensing hose included.
- No special tools are required for servicing.
*The wetted surface of this product contacted by consumable water contains less than 0.25% of lead by weight.
