Dual_Check_Backflow_Examples.pdf

This file contains technical specification examples for dual check backflow prevention devices related to Seminole County Utilities' Cellular Meter - AMRI Upgrade procurement. The document provides illustrative examples and diagrams of dual check backflow configurations that establish the technical standards and performance requirements vendors must meet when supplying cellular Automated Meter Reading Interface (AMRI) meter reading units to replace the County's existing manual read or drive-by meter reading system. The specifications ensure that any backflow prevention devices incorporated into the meter infrastructure comply with applicable plumbing and water safety codes. Proposals for this procurement were due July 8, 2026, and Addendum #5 was issued June 22, 2026, which bidders should review for any modifications to the original scope or requirements.

The dual check backflow examples document serves as a reference guide to establish baseline technical expectations for water safety compliance within the broader meter upgrade project. This specification document does not contain independent pricing, set-aside information, funding sources, or contract term details; rather, it functions as a supporting exhibit to the main procurement documents, including the draft agreement, insurance requirements, sample purchase order, and other technical specifications. Vendors responding to this opportunity should ensure their proposed AMRI solutions incorporate backflow prevention measures consistent with the examples and standards outlined in this supporting documentation.
