The Mako 5-Valve Backflow Test Kit then conducts digital backflow testing, creating any measurements and values that you require. Whether it’s the function of the valve or the pressure chambers, the test kit is thorough and accurate in its measurements.

The technician can then view the results and act appropriately. With just a click of a button, the values can then be stored digitally and viewed on your device.

The ‘Ready to Test’ Bundle contains a magnitude of features that will revitalise your backflow testing by using revolutionary technology. With the bundle containing the equipment that you’ll need to get started with digital backflow testing, there’s a whole host of features that will transform your backflow testing processes.

Capture Button – Instead of taking time to write down values with constant interruptions, the capture button on the Mako 5-Valve Backflow Test Kit stores the readings during a test, meaning that no data will be lost if you need to take a step away. Gone are the days of scruffy handwriting and your mobile phone pulling you away from a reading.

Easy Visibility Backlit Display – Whether you have poor light conditions or are being flooded by harsh sunlight, the backlit display improves your visibility to monitor readings in any lighting conditions. With less time guessing and reaching for a torch, your values are easily understood from a quick glance.

Simple Placement – Whatever situation you find yourself completing your backflow testing in, the test kit features a handy swivel hook that eliminates the need for fiddly rope and difficulty with keeping the meter in a convenient position. Being able to hang the test kit up easily, you can carry out your backflow testing whilst easily being able to easily view the values on the display.

Flexible Hoses – Using flexible hoses that are safe for wholesome water, wiggling into tight spots has never been so easy. Time spent fiddling with adapters is removed, with the digital meter making it easier to carry out backflow testing in locations of all shapes and sizes.

Accuracy of Readings – The Mako 5-Valve Backflow Test Kit is accurate to ±1 kPa within a calibrated range that meets the RPZ AIM Checklist requirements. With faster response times than its analogue counterparts, you’ll receive quicker results on more stable readings.

Easy to Handle – The test kit is designed with the job in mind. With rubber grips making the Mako 5-Valve Backflow Test Kit easy to hold, its ergonomic design thinks about comfort and ease of use.
