T&S Brass B-0969 Vacuum Breaker, 1/2 NPT Inlet & Outlet, Atmospheric

The T&S Brass B-0969 is a lead-free atmospheric vacuum breaker designed to prevent backflow contamination in commercial plumbing applications. This essential safety device protects potable water supplies by allowing air to enter the system when negative pressure occurs, preventing backsiphonage of non-potable water or contaminants.

Key Features:

• Lead-free construction complies with current plumbing codes and safe drinking water regulations
• 1/2" NPT threaded inlet and outlet connections for easy installation
• Atmospheric-type design automatically opens to admit air when supply pressure drops
• Durable brass construction ensures long-lasting performance in commercial environments
• Compact design fits in tight spaces behind faucets and equipment
• Suitable for use with commercial pre-rinse units, hose connections, and other equipment requiring backflow prevention

This vacuum breaker is commonly used in commercial kitchens, restaurants, and food service applications where backflow prevention is required by code. The atmospheric design is ideal for installations where the vacuum breaker can be mounted at least 6 inches above the highest downstream outlet and is not subject to continuous pressure.
