Enduramaxx Fluid Category 5 (CAT 5) Break Tanks
Professional-Grade Backflow Protection & Compliance
When working with water systems that pose a high risk of contamination, compliance isn't just a suggestion—it’s a legal requirement. Enduramaxx Fluid Category 5 (CAT 5) Break Tanks are specifically engineered to protect the public mains water supply from the most serious health risks.
Featuring a mandatory Type AB Air Gap, these tanks create a physical break between the inlet and the water level, ensuring that hazardous fluids—including those containing pathogens, chemicals, or waste—cannot flow back into the potable water network.
