Description
The FEBCO 3 inch LF880V-NRS-FS is a lead free reduced pressure zone backflow preventer assembly designed to protect against high hazard (toxic) fluids in industrial water services. It features a durable ductile iron body with a patented ArmorTek® 3-part epoxy coating for advanced corrosion resistance, including protection against microbial induced corrosion. Equipped with non-rising stem shutoff valves and stainless steel relief valve seat and check components, it offers enhanced performance and extended life. This assembly also includes a SentryPlus Alert® flood sensor to detect excessive relief valve discharge, integrating with a Sensor Control Monitor for alerts via Modbus or Wi-Fi. Item number F122952.
This 3 inch lead free reduced pressure zone backflow preventer assembly protects against high hazard (toxic) fluids in water services for industrial installations and applications.
Construction & Design
Features a lead free ductile iron body with a patented 3-part ArmorTek® epoxy coating system.
The ArmorTek® coating is designed to limit both microbial induced (MIC) and exposed metal substrate corrosion.
Includes non-rising stem shutoff valves, test cocks, spring loaded check valves, and a pressure differential relief valve.
Improved with a stainless-steel relief valve seat and stainless-steel check components for maximum performance, durability, and extended valve life.
Designed with a configurable N-Pattern.
Flood Monitoring & Alerts
Equipped with a flood sensor with SentryPlus Alert® technology to detect continuous or excessive discharge from the relief valve.
Supports an add-on sensor connection kit to extend flood monitoring capabilities.
Integrates with the Sensor Control Monitor to deliver maintenance alerts to BAS via RS-485 Modbus or the Nexa® platform by Wi-Fi connectivity.
