or property damage.
NOTICE
For Australia and New Zealand, line strainers should be installed
between the upstream shutoff valve and the inlet of the backflow
preventer.
Watts product specifications in U.S. customary units and metric
are approximate and are provided for reference only. For precise
measurements, contact Watts Technical Service. Watts reserves the
right to change or modify product design, construction, specifications,
or materials without prior notice and without incurring any obligation
to make such changes and modifications on Watts products
previously or subsequently sold.
LF007-FZ
Series 007 and LF007 small-diameter backflow preventers are
designed for installation at referenced cross-connections to prevent
the backflow of polluted water into the potable water supply. Both
series include a freezer sensor to signal building/irrigation management
systems when temperature hits the freeze thresholds.
NOTICE
An add-on connection kit is required to activate the freeze sensor.
Without the connection kit, the sensor is a passive component that
does not communicate with any other device. (The kit can also be used
to retrofit existing installations. For ordering details, see "Add-on Sensor
Connection Kit.") BMS/IMS only.
NOTICE
Use of freeze sensor does not remove the need to comply with all
required instructions, codes, and regulations related to installation,
operation, and maintenance of the backflow preventer.
Watts is not responsible for data transmission failures or the failure
of alerts due to connectivity issues, power outages, or improper
installation.
