27、with an air inlet which is closed when water flows through it at or above atmospheric pres-sure, but which opens to admit air if there is a subatmospheric pressure at the water inlet or when the flow stops, and closes so as to be watertight when the flow of water is resumed at normal pressure. In ca
28、se of subatmospheric pressure the obturator should admit air to the downstream pipework as well as throttling the inlet waterway of the device. It ensures no protection against back flow by back pressure. For the purpose of this document “in-line-anti-vacuum valve(s) DA“ is hereafter referred to as
