Product catalog summary
Overview
The ACO QUATRIX® is an automated anti-flooding device designed for black water connections, conforming to BS EN 13564 standards. It features an in-line Type 3 backflow valve with an access chamber, suitable for both internal and external applications.

Design and Installation
The device is compatible with 110mm and 160mm diameter drain pipes and includes a height-adjustable access chamber. It features a reversible cover for tiled or cementitious floor finishes, which can be rotated for alignment with floor tiling. The motor/valve body is IP67 rated, ensuring durability in various environments.

Functionality
Under normal conditions, the backflow flaps remain open to allow wastewater flow. In the event of backflow, a pressure sensor activates the motorized flap, which closes to prevent flooding, triggering an audible alarm and flashing light. The control box includes a 24-hour power backup for reliability during power outages. A manual override is available with a two-position secondary flap for emergency use.
