SVB-4W Series
SPILL RESISTANT VACUUM BREAKERS
The Apollo Series SVB-4W Spill Resistant Vacuum Breaker is designed to prevent
contamination of the potable water supply due to back-siphonage. The SVB is ideally suited for
continuous pressure, indoor applications where water spillage is undesirable. The device has a
straight through flow path for minimal head loss. All components are easily accessible for easy
repair and maintenance. All components are made of corrosion resistant materials for years of
reliable service. Should be installed 6” above all downstream piping.
OPERATION
During normal flow conditions, the check valve remains open and the atmospheric vent seals in
the bonnet assembly. As the line pressure falls to 1 psi, the spring loaded atmospheric vent
opens and the check valve closes, breaking the vacuum and thereby preventing backsiphonage.
Water is not allowed to spill at any time during operation.
