FK-5 break tank stations
Fluid category 5 safety valves
KEMPER FK-5 break tank stations protect drinking water from non-potable water up to and including fluid category 5. Due to the significant risk to human health caused by category 5 fluids, indirect separation from the drinking water system must be ensured. The FK-5 break tank station meets this requirement through an integrated free type “AB” drain. And it also has many functional highlights!
Benefit from the following advantages:
- High-level performance: flow rate up to 7 m³/h (in combination with the FK-5 water supply set plus, Figure 369 01)
- Promotes drinking water hygiene through programmable flushing cycles for the drinking water feed pipe
- Integrated tank cleaning program
- Controls operating time via weekly program
- Controls an external dosing or submersible pump
- Reading of consumption and operating data via USB port
- Fault signal output to BMS
Definition of fluid category 5 based on DIN EN 1717
Fluid that presents a health hazard for human beings through the presence of microbial or viral pathogens of infectious diseases (contamination, danger to life).
Practical use examples:
- Subsurface irrigation
- Use in a microbiological laboratory
- Cooling towers
- Water for drinking troughs
- Water playgrounds
- Cleaning processes in the zoological sector
