Watts 009 Series Backflow Preventer Compatibility

The Watts 009 Series Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) backflow preventers, while sharing a common design, exist in several modifications: 009, 009M1, 009M2, and 009M3. It is critically important to identify the exact model and modification of your backflow preventer, as their internal parts are significantly different, even if the external appearance is similar.

  • This specific kit, RK 009M3 RT 3/4", is designed ONLY for the 3/4 inch Watts 009M3 Reduced Pressure Zone Assembly.
  • Ensure your backflow preventer is clearly marked with '009M3' to guarantee compatibility before purchasing.
  • If your device is an 009, 009M1, or 009M2, this kit will not be compatible.

For Watts Series 009 Reduced Pressure Zone Assemblies

Watts 009 Series Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) devices are known as "contractor grade" and have been produced since 1989. These devices feature a one-cover design across sizes. The smaller 1/4 inch to 2 inch models are constructed of bronze and use check modules that slide into the body, secured by a retainer. The relief valve assembly is located directly under the cover. The check modules and relief valve assembly are designed for service.

Important Note on Modifications

Over the years, Watts has implemented slight redesigns, referred to as "modifications" (e.g., 009, 009M1, 009M2, and 009M3). While the external appearance of these valves is very similar, their internal parts are significantly different. Always be sure of your specific valve model before ordering repair parts to ensure correct compatibility.
