Do they really list for $225?  What's the street price? (I love
suppliers, "Well ... you're my BESTEST customer so I'll give you a
30-30-25-10-10-10 and three 5's!"   Let's see ... hmm, I owe you money
somehow.")

All kidding aside, the reason these things are so cool Ron is that you
can combine the water supply on small-medium sized 13R projects and
utilize the "domestic" backflow appliance, whilst still providing the
supervisory switches as may be required.

We use quite a few of them on our 13D backflows which all seem to come
with
ball valves.
We've also installed them at the owner request on the drum drip ball
valves
of dry systems. You need a slow close control valve for a sectional
valve,
to prevent water hammer, so these won't work, since 1/4 turn ball valves
are
anything but "Slow Close"

Actually Charles, it clamps to the valve body.  Meant for a ball valve
only,
like when you have a listed bfp assembly with ball valves and they have
to
be monitored.
Not cheap!  They list for $225.

Hello RFI,

Potter makes a switch that can be added to ball valves for this RBVS,
BUT
since it clamps to the pipe for mounting it might not be suitable for
use
with CPVC.
