Service-friendly designs help reduce downtime, streamline maintenance, and support system performance

Aalberts integrated piping systems (IPS), a global leader in advanced integrated piping systems for the distribution and control of liquids and gasses, highlights its range of “Apollo”^® Valves solutions engineered to simplify maintenance across backflow prevention, pressure regulation, and industrial applications. Designed to support easier access, in-line service, and reduced downtime, these products help contractors, engineers, facility teams, and maintenance professionals keep critical systems operating efficiently.

“Apollo”® Backflow preventers are designed to protect potable water systems while making routine inspection and maintenance more efficient. Many assemblies feature top-access modular check valve cartridges that allow internal components to be serviced without removing the assembly from the line, while additional features such as no-special-tools maintenance, replaceable cartridge components, captured springs, reversible chloramine-resistant silicone seat discs, and top-mounted test cocks help reduce labor, support compliance, and extend service life across commercial, industrial, and irrigation applications.

The “Apollo”® 36E and 36ELF series water pressure reducing valves help protect downstream plumbing systems from excessive pressure while supporting easier service in the field. The cartridge-based design and integral strainer allow maintenance teams to access, clean, inspect, or replace key components more efficiently, while the integral by-pass feature, field adjustability, lead-free construction, and multiple connection options help deliver reliable pressure regulation with less disruption and greater installation flexibility.

“Apollo”® top entry valves are built for industrial and manufacturing environments where minimizing downtime is critical. Their top-entry design allows technicians to access internal components while the valve body remains installed in the piping system, reducing disassembly and avoiding valve removal, while the self-adjusting seat design helps compensate for pressure, temperature, and wear to support dependable sealing, long-term reliability, and easier maintenance in demanding service conditions.

With “Apollo”® Backflow preventers, the 36E and 36ELF series, and “Apollo”® top entry valves, Aalberts integrated piping systems continues to deliver valve solutions designed around practical serviceability, dependable performance, and long-term value.
