REDUCED PRESSURE PRINCIPLE
The Apollo Series RP-4A Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Preventer is designed to give
maximum protection against backflow caused by either back-pressure or back-siphonage from
substances that are hazardous. The durable but economical device is easily maintained in the line
with modular check cartridge assemblies that require no special tools. It consists of two
independently acting spring-loaded check valves with an automatic differential relief valve located
between the check valves. All testcocks are mounted at the top of the unit to assure easy access
during repair and maintenance when unit is installed in tight places.
