V-101 and V-101C Atmospheric

Type Vacuum Breakers

DESCRIPTION

The Cash Acme V-101 Atmosphere Type Vacuum Breaker is designed to prevent polluted

water from being siphoned into the potable water supply.

The Cash Acme V-101 is a robust valve with a good flow rate and unusually low pressure drop.

The Cash Acme V-101 is designed to operate in systems having a maximum intermittent water

pressure of 125 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 212°F (100°C).

When water from the inlet side flows through the valve, it lifts the free-floating poppet assembly

and closes the atmospheric vent. The light weight design of the poppet and the rubber seat

prevent leakage as water flows through.

The Cash Acme V-101 is designed with a rugged bronze body. A silicone rubber seat seals

tightly against backflow. Sizes available include 1/2", 3/4" and 1" with threaded female

connections.

Also available in a polished chrome finish in 1/2" to 1" sizes (specify V-101C when ordering).
