Brass 15mm Compression Stop Tap with Double Check Valve
This 15mm Compression Mains Water Stop Tap is a dual-function valve designed for peak performance and safety. It features a robust 15mm compression inlet/outlet for standard copper piping, integrated with a 22mm Double Check Valve. This combination not only allows for easy water isolation but also provides critical backflow protection, preventing contaminated water from flowing back into the mains supply.
Identification Guide:
Standards: BS1010 / EN1213 | Size: 15mm Compression | Check Valve: 22mm Double | Material: Brass
Key Features
- Compliant Engineering: Fully meets BS1010 and EN1213 industrial standards for stopcocks.
- Double Protection: The integrated check valve prevents cross-contamination in domestic systems.
- Durable Build: Manufactured from high-quality brass for long-term corrosion resistance and strength.
- Easy Installation: Standard compression fittings ensure a secure, leak-free joint without the need for soldering.
Technical Usage
Ideally used at the point of entry for mains water or before appliances that require backflow protection (like outdoor taps or boiler feeds). The 22mm check valve body ensures high flow rates are maintained despite the 15mm pipe connections.
Note: Ensure the arrow on the valve body points in the direction of the water flow during installation.
