A.Y. McDonald 5135023 7112-3YE Angle Dual Check Valve, 5/8" Yoke x 3/4" FNPT, No-Lead
The A.Y. McDonald 5135023 (model 7112-3YE) is an angle-configuration dual check backflow preventer built for water meter installations, connecting a 5/8" yoke inlet to a 3/4" FNPT outlet. This inline check assembly is manufactured to A.Y. McDonald's No-Lead standard, making it suited for rough-in service on the customer side of the meter where a compact, angled dual-check configuration is required. Plumbers and water utility contractors use this valve to provide a two-check backflow barrier directly at the meter yoke without requiring additional straight-run fitting space, since the angle body allows the connection to turn the line 90 degrees within the meter pit or setter assembly.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 5/8" yoke inlet x 3/4" FNPT outlet, sized to mate directly with standard water meter yokes and 3/4" threaded service piping.
- Angle Dual Check Configuration: The ADCHK/INLCK angle-body design provides an inline dual check function while allowing the connection to change direction at the meter setting, reducing the need for extra elbow fittings in tight meter pit or box installations.
- No-Lead Construction: Manufactured to A.Y. McDonald's No-Lead (NL) specification for use on the potable water side of the meter connection.
- Threaded FNPT Connection: The 3/4" female national pipe thread outlet allows straightforward makeup to standard threaded service line fittings without soldering or solvent welding.
- Meter Yoke Compatible: The 5/8" yoke end is sized to fit standard residential/commercial water meter yoke connections used by water utilities and plumbing contractors.
- Dual Check Backflow Protection: Provides a two-valve check arrangement at the meter connection point as part of the customer-side service assembly.
