MasterSeries LF876V
Double Check Detector
Backflow Prevention Assembly
Size: 212" - 10"
The FEBCO MasterSeries LF876V Double Check Detector Assembly is specifically designed to protect against possible backpressure and backsiphonage conditions for non-health hazard (i.e., pollutant) application in accordance
with Local Governing Water Utility Code.
This Backflow Assembly is primarily used on potable drinking water systems
and fire sprinkler systems, where Local Governing Code mandates protection from non-potable quality water being pumped or siphoned back into the
potable water system.

Inline Serviceable Assembly
Horizontal N-Pattern Installations
Vertical-Up Z-Pattern Installations
No Special Tools Required for Servicing
Captured Modular Spring Assembly
Reversible & Replaceable Discs
Field Replaceable Seats
Ductile Iron Valve Body Design
Stainless Steel Check Components

Specifications
The FEBCO MasterSeries LF876V Double Check Detector Valve Assembly
shall be installed on the potable water supply and at each point of crossconnection to protect against possible backpressure and backsiphonage
conditions for non-health hazard (i.e., pollutant) applications. The assembly
shall consist of a main line valve body composed of two (2) independently
acting approved clapper style check modules with replaceable seats and
disc rubbers. Servicing of both check modules does not require any special
tools and are accessed through independent top entry covers. This assembly
shall be fitted with approved UL/FM inlet/outlet resilient seated shutoff valves
and contain four (4) properly located resilient seated test cocks as specified by AWWA Standard C510. The auxiliary bypass line contains a 58x34
Water Meter that complies with ANSI/AWWA Standard C700 coupled with
an approved check assembly. The bypass line is designed to detect leaks or
unauthorized water usage of the water system while protecting against possible backpressure and backsiphonage conditions for non-health hazard (i.e.,
pollutant) application. The assembly shall be approved for horizontal and/or
vertical-up installations while meeting the requirements of AWWA Standard
C510 flow and pressure loss performance parameters.

Performance
Flow capacity chart identifies valve performance based upon rated water
Velocity up to 20fps
M
aximum service flow rate is determined by maximum rated Velocity of
7.5fps.
A
WWA Manual M-22 (Appendix C) recommends that the maximum water
Velocity in the services be not more than 10fps.
