Intended use
INFO!
Coordinate the use of the model for areas of use and media other than those described with the Viega Service Center.
Areas of use
Use is possible in the following areas among others:
Drinking water installations
Industrial units
The general rules of engineering and the applicable regulations must be observed for planning, execution, operation and maintenance potable water installations, see Regulations from section: Fields of application .
Media
The model is also suitable for the following media, amongst others:
Drinking water without limitations acc. to the applicable directives, see Regulations from section: Media
maximum chloride concentration 250 mg/l pursuant to applicable regulations, see Regulations from section: Media
Product description
According to the applicable regulations, Easytop system fittings can be used for all types of potable water and are DVGW certified, see Regulations from section: Product description . Their plastic components comply with the KTW recommendation and the requirements pursuant to the applicable regulations.
Overview
INFO!
The Easytop system fittings comply with the test requirements specified in the applicable regulations, see Regulations from section: Overview . Sound protection Lap≤ 20 dB(A)
The model is equipped as follows:
valve casing made of gunmetal/silicon bronze
valve top made of gunmetal/silicon bronze (dead space free)
dual-sided G external thread
valve seat and valve plate unit made of stainless steel
non-rising spindle
position indication open/closed
handwheel, closed, with ergonomic shape, with exchangeable coloured plastic cap as media marking
combined backflow preventer (CBP)
- Entleerungs- / Prüfstopfen
drainage / testing plugs G¼ upstream and downstream from the backflow preventer
key surface on the casing
valve and spindle seal made of EPDM (maintenance-free)
Backflow preventer
The model is fitted with a backflow preventer.
Backflow preventers only allow flowthrough in one direction (in the direction of flow). If the direction of flow changes, e.g. due to back suction, the backflow preventers close automatically.

Compatible components
The model is equipped with G-external threads according to the applicable regulations and compatible with the Profipress, Sanpress, and Sanpress Inox system, see Regulations from section: Compatible components .
Operating mode
Combined backflow preventer (CBP)
Backflow preventers protect fittings and installation systems against unintended backflow, back pressure or back suction of the contaminated wastewater or dirty water in the piping system. This can occur after pressure fluctuations in the distributor circuit, which can cause a change in the direction of flow.
The backflow preventer prevents the pushing back, backflow or back suction of liquids, which may be a health hazard, into the public drinking water network, with the help of a spring-loaded valve cone. The dimension is dependent on the peak pressure and it complies with the nominal width of the pipeline. The backflow preventer must be fitted with testing equipment.
In many countries, standards and technical guidelines stipulate the use of backflow preventers or other suitable safety equipment that protect drinking water against contamination.

Information for use
Corrosion
Overground pipelines and fittings in rooms do not normally require external corrosion protection.
There are exceptions in the following cases:
Contact with aggressive building materials such as nitrite or materials containing ammonium
in aggressive surroundings
If external corrosion protection is required, observe the pertinent guidelines, see Regulations from section: Corrosion .
INFO!
Easytop fittings made of gunmetal/silicon bronze are suitable for all types of potable water.
The chloride concentration in the medium must not exceed a maximum value of 250 mg/l.
This chloride is not a disinfectant, but in fact pertains to the content in sea and table salt (sodium chloride).
Optional accessories
The following optional accessories are available:
Drainage valve
Extension for drainage valve when using an insulating shell
Easytop media markings in the colours red and green for the identification of the corresponding area of use
Insulating shells
Insulating shells
EPS insulating shells are available for all sizes of valves. The two-piece shells are self-securing and mounted with tools and holding clamps: they connect seamlessly onto the flat surface of the pipe insulation. When installing a drainage valve or an extension with drainage valve, a predetermined breaking point is broken out of the insulating shell.
