(3" to 10") assemblies help prevent the reverse flow of polluted
water from entering the potable water system. Series LF709
Model IOT includes factory-installed pressure sensors.
NOTICE
For IOT models, an add-on monitoring connection kit is required
to collect psi measurements from the integrated pressure sensors.
Without the connection kit, the pressure sensors are passive
components and will not communicate with any other device. For
BMS only. (The connection kit and pressure sensors are also avail-
able for existing installations. See "Add-on Monitoring Connection
Kits," for ordering details.)
NOTICE
Use of integrated pressure sensors on and monitoring connection
kit with IOT models does not remove the need to comply with all
required instructions, codes, and regulations related to installation,
operation, and maintenance of the backflow preventer.
Watts is not responsible for data transmission failures due to
