BA BS Micro<br />

The BS Micro backflow <strong>protection</strong><br />

device is developed especially for low<br />

flow rate applications. This unique<br />

protector is used specifically in systems<br />

with a low flow. The device is<br />

especially appropriate for dental chairs<br />

and soap dispensers. The BS Micro<br />

offers optimum <strong>protection</strong> in<br />

conformance with liquids class 4.<br />

Standards<br />

The BA BS Micro was developed in<br />

conformance with EN1717.<br />

Installation guidelines<br />

Putting the device<br />

into operation<br />

Put the BS Micro into<br />

operation by opening the<br />

shut-off valve up- and<br />

downstream of the device.<br />

Then open the test cocks to<br />

bleed the device.<br />

After retightening the valves,<br />

the device is ready to<br />

operate.<br />

Checking the device<br />

According to the national<br />

standard, backflow <strong>protection</strong><br />

<strong>devices</strong> must be checked at<br />

least once a year.<br />

Installation<br />

Install the BS Micro after cleaning the pipe system.<br />

To prevent contaminated water from flowing back into the potable water system,<br />

the BS Micro is installed upstream of the <strong>devices</strong>. Install the device in an easily<br />

accessible place: this simplifies inspections and maintenance.<br />

Ensure that the device is installed horizontally and is not under tension. Place a<br />

strainer on the inlet side of the device: this protects the valves against<br />

unnecessary contamination. Moreover, shut-off valves are installed both<br />

upstream of the strainer and downstream of the device. The discharge vent can<br />

be connected to a drain via the integrated funnel.<br />
