    IMPORTANT: INQUIRE WITH GOVERNING AUTHORITIES FOR LOCAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

    Limited Warranty: FEBCO warrants each product to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal usage for a period of one year from the date of original shipment. In the event of such defects within the warranty period, the Company will, at its option, replace or recondition the product without charge. THE WARRANTY SET FORTH HEREIN IS GIVEN EXPRESSLY AND IS THE ONLY WARRANTY GIVEN BY THE COMPANY WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT. THE COMPANY MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. THE COMPANY HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. The remedy described in the first paragraph of this warranty shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for breach of warranty, and the Company shall not be responsible for any incidental, special or consequential damages, including without limitation, lost profits or the cost of repairing or replacing other property which is damaged if this product does not work properly, other costs resulting from labor charges, delays, vandalism, negligence, fouling caused by foreign material, damage from adverse water conditions, chemical, or any other circumstances over which the Company has no control. This warranty shall be invalidated by any abuse, misuse, misapplication, improper installation or improper maintenance or alteration of the product. Some States do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. Therefore the above limitations may not apply to you. This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights that vary from State to State. You should consult applicable state laws to determine your rights. SO FAR AS IS CONSISTENT WITH APPLICABLE STATE LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES THAT MAY NOT BE DISCLAIMED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO ONE YEAR FROM THE DATE OF ORIGINAL SHIPMENT.

    Installation Instructions
    Indoors - Figure 1
    Check local codes for installation requirements. Pipe lines should be thoroughly flushed to remove foreign material before installing the unit. A strainer should be installed as shown, ahead of backflow preventer to prevent disc from unnecessary fouling. Install valve in the line with arrow on valve body pointing in the direction of flow. For indoor installations, it is important that the valve be easily accessible to facilitate testing and servicing. Do not install in a concealed location. CAUTION: Do not install with strainer when backflow preventer is used on seldom-used water lines which are called upon during emergencies, such as fire sprinkler lines, etc. It is important that Series 808Y be tested periodically in compliance with local codes, but at least once a year or more often depending upon system conditions. Regular inspection, testing and cleaning assures maximum life and proper product function. NOTE: Fire Protection System Installations The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) Guidelines require a confirming flow test to be conducted whenever a main line valve such as the shutoff valves or a backflow assembly have been operated. Certified testers of backflow assemblies must conduct this test. The trim valves of the confirming flow test must be closed during the test. When the test is completed, the trim valves must be returned to a fully open position.

    Parallel - Figure 3
    Two or more Series 808Y smaller size valves may be piped in parallel (where approved) to serve a larger supply pipe main. This type of installation is employed whenever it is vital to maintain a continuous supply of water where interruptions for testing and servicing would be unacceptable. It also has the advantage of providing increased capacity where needed beyond that provided by a single valve without shutting down the complete line. For two valve installations the total capacity should equal or exceed that required by the system. The quantity of valves used in parallel should be determined by the engineers judgment based on operating conditions of a specific installation.

    Servicing First and Second Check Valves


    Servicing the First and Second Check Valves
    NOTE: Before servicing, be certain water is turned off or shutoff valves are closed. 1. Close shutoff valves up and downstream of the valve. 2. Using an appropriate sized wrench, loosen the check valve cover. Unscrew the check valve cover and lift off. 3. Remove spring. 4. Lift out disc holder assembly from body of valve. 5. To reverse the seat disc, unscrew disc screw and disassemble disc washer and disc rubber from disc holder assembly. Reverse rubber so opposite face is showing. Assemble disc screw through disc washer and rubber and screw into disc holder. 6. To replace seat module, pull out of body by gripping at reinforcement ring. Replace seat module with new component by placing into body seat bore. Tightening cover will engage seat properly. 7. Insert disc holder assembly back into seat module. 8. Replace spring insuring that it seats properly on disc holder. 9. Place cover onto spring with internal guide on cover positioned inside end coil. 10. Screw cover onto valve body. 11. Tighten cover wrench tight. 10. Open shutoff valves.

    Test Procedure for Double Check Valve Assemblies


    A. Before starting test, all needle valves and bleed valves on test kit must be closed. B. Flush test cocks before test. NOTE: Supply pressure gauge reading will decrease when performing this test procedure.

    Test Check Valve No. 1


    NOTE: Close all needle valve "A", "B" and "C" and bleed valve "A" and "B" on test kit. Step 1 Ensure shutoff No. 1 is open, shutoff No. 2 is closed. Step 2 Install high side hose between connection "A" high side and test cock No. 3, low side hose between "B" low side and test cock No. 2, and open both test cock No. 2 and 3. Step 3 Open bleed valve "A" to bleed air from the high side. Close "A" then open bleed valve "B" to bleed low side. Close "B". Step 4 Connect bypass hose loosely to test cock No. 1. Open needle valves "A" high side and "C" bypass to vent air from the bypass hose. Tighten bypass hose at test cock No. 1, open test cock No. 1 Step 5 Close shutoff No. 1. Slowly open bleed "B" until differential gauge rises to 2psi and close. If the differential reading does not decrease, record check valve as "tight". Step 6 Close all test cocks and open bleed valves "A" and "B". Then close needle valves "A", "B" and "C" and bleed valves "A" and "B". Remove hoses from test cocks.

    Test Check Valve No. 2


    Step 7 Move the high side hose to test cock No. 4, low side hose to test cock No. 3 and open both test cock No. 3 and 4. Remove bypass hose from test cock No. 1, open shutoff valve No. 1. Step 8 Open bleed valve "A" to bleed air from the high side. Close bleed "A" then open bleed "B" to bleed low side. Close bleed "B". Step 9 Connect bypass hose loosely to test cock No. 1. Open needle valves "A" high side and "C" bypass to vent air from the bypass hose. Tighten bypass hose at test cock No. 1, open test cock No. 1. Step 10 Close shutoff No. 1, then slowly open bleed "B" until differential gauge rises to 2psi and close. If the differential reading does not decrease, record check as tight. Close all test cocks and remove hoses. Open bleed valves "A" and "B". Restore valve to original working condition. NOTE: The assembly will fail both the first and second check valve tests above, if shutoff No. 2 leaks excessively. To test for a leaky No. 2 shutoff, use the following procedure.

    Test for Leaky No. 2 Shutoff


    Step 11 Connect the high side hose to test cock No. 1, low side hose to test cock No. 4. Open test cocks No. 1 and 4. Close shutoffs No. 1 and 2. Step 12 Close needle valve "C" bypass. Open needle valve "A" high side, then open needle valve "B" low side one turn, loosen hose at test cock No. 4 to remove air. Retighten hose. Step 13 If the differential gauge rises above 0, there is excessive leakage at shutoff No. 2, and it must be replaced to test the assembly.
