Engineering &  Specifications

The Deringer 20G Double Check Valve shall utilize two independent Dual Action Check modules contained within a single valve housing constructed entirely of 304 stainless steel. Dual Action Check modules shall operate as a "poppet style" check under low flow conditions, operate as a "swing style" check under high flow conditions and utilize replaceable silicone elastomer sealing discs. Valve assembly shall include two resiliently seated and inline serviceable AWWA C509 gate valves of type outside yoke and stem (OS&Y). Both gate valves shall include a stainless steel stem with pre-machined groove for installation of supervisory tamper switches. Assembly test cocks shall be handle-less and operate via a tamper resistant actuator. Assembly shall have a single full access service port and cover with an "inline" replaceable elastomer cover seal. Assembly shall be serviceable without special tools and approved for both horizontal and vertical applications.

Deringer Backflow Preventer Dual Action Check
Low Flow Poppet Action

Poppet Action

Features:

  • Initial 25% of check stroke is that of a poppet check.
  • Consistent static sealing
  • Excellent resistant to fouling
  • Reliable check closure
  • Stable flow characteristics at lower flow rates

Swing Action

Features:

  • Final 75% of check stroke is that of a swing check.
  • Minimal friction loss at high flow rates.
  • More linear flow path water through valve.
High Swing Action

Bow-Seal™  Full Access Cover

The Patented Bow-Seal™ Full Access Cover (US8844562) is pre-formed to cylindrical shape friendly to high fluid pressure. This allows the cover to be much thinner and lighter than traditional flat covers while still providing FULL and EASY access to Dual Action™ Check Modules.

Additional features include:

  • Light weight
  • Simple removal
  • No sliding seals
  • Full access to valve internals
  • No cumbersome and heavy couplings

Tamper Resistant  Test Cock

The Deringer tamper resistant ½” and ¾” ball valves are the first handle-less test cocks found on large diameter backflow devices in the industry. The top of the valve actuation stem has a unique shape that uses an independent custom wrench to open and close test cocks. All test cocks are lead free and meet the SDWA requirements.
