Product information
We designed the WaBack Access to provide instant, automatic protection against backflow. Our engineers designed WaBack Access to work on differential pressure to ensure that in times of need the valve simply protects. No electricity or human interaction required, and without constant maintenance WaBack Access Chamber protects against flooding caused by surcharged sewers.
With long life-cycle cost as part of our DNA we’ve ensured that WaBack Access is designed and constructed using materials designed to withstand the rigors of sewer applications. Each part of the WaBack Access is designed to tolerate chemicals usually found in sewer applications with ease. The only maintenance required for the Access Chamber is that the WaBack module is removed for inspection and rinsing once a year. After a suspected backflow event it is recommended that the chamber is inspected and rinsed if required. The O-ring in the PVC plate should be greased with silicone or similar every time the WaBack module is removed.

Technical specification
We at Wapro love protecting people and property from flooding and in line with our customer promise of common sense and simplicity, we have developed WaBack Access chamber to ensure our products fit real life applications.
WaBack Access Chamber is a complete inspection chamber Ø425mm with DN110mm and DN160mm connections. Inside the chamber is a WaBack check valve to prevent backflow. The ‘easy-remove’ backwater valve can be removed from ground level allowing easy rinsing and allows simple inspection. The WaBack module can be installed on sewage, drainage and surface water networks. Our WaBack Access is designed to be used in heavily polluted water and can therefore be used in both sewer and stormwater applications. When designing WaBack Access we chose to have a completely open flow area to ensure blockages won’t occur. Experience has led to further development of the WaBack Access. Our engineers have fine-tuned the mechanism to ensure decades of low maintenance protection and there is an optional alarm to inform the home owners that WaBack Access is protecting them from flooding.
