The Aqualock core barrel is pre-filled with water, which locks the piston at the bottom of the cutting kit. During sonic drilling, the Aqualock remains filled with (non-compressible) water, holding the plunger in place and allowing the corer to sink to the desired depth until you decide to sample. The piston is unlocked by sending push rods (not threaded) into the rod string, thus opening the valve (at the top) and releasing the piston so that it can freely ascend with the core and provide a complete intact sample even in very loose ground (silt, wet sand, gravel, etc...).

Where containment at the property line cannot be achieved or is waived based on extenuating circumstances, installation within a building is often desirable as the unit can be installed in a mechanical room or other area that has heat and light. Access and drainage considerations must also be satisfied and the devices should be located to avoid electrical panels, areas of excessive heat, etc.

After issuance of the Completed Works Approval, the assembly must be tested at least annually by a certified tester with the results reported to the water supplier.

Primarily due to considerations for access, safety and gravity drainage, it is preferred that backflow prevention devices not be installed in pits. Where pit installations are proposed, however, they shall be designed:

All double check valve (DCV) and reduced pressure zone (RPZ) backflow prevention assemblies are designed for in-line service and must be installed to prevent freezing, flooding and mechanical damage with adequate space to facilitate maintenance and testing. Ideally, the installation should not require platforms, ladders or lifts for access. Adequate clearances from floors, ceilings and walls must be provided to access the test cocks and to allow the repair and/or removal of the relief valve and check valves; as follows:

An engineering report must be included with the plan submittal. The report must describe the project in detail. Items that should be included or described in the report include:

The purpose of these guidelines is to augment and/or clarify those guidelines outlined in the January 1981 Cross Connection Control manual. These guidelines reflect accepted design considerations based on experience in implementing cross connection control programs and policies set forth by the American Water Works Association, Environmental Protection Agency, USC Foundation for Cross Connection Control and Hydraulic Research and state and local health departments. Pending revisions to the manual, these guidelines should clearly outline what an acceptable design and installation constitutes. They are to be reasonably interpreted and will be updated as new design solutions and technologies are offered.

The push rods are then removed, causing the valve to close and creating a vacuum to hold the sample as the Aqualock is withdrawn. The core can then be extracted by injecting high pressure water into the head of the corer (combined with vibration if required) to push the piston and extract the sample. The plunger also prevents contact between the water and the sample.

After an approval of plans has been issued and the assembly has been installed, it must be tested by a certified tester. The designer (or water supplier) is then responsible to certify that the installation was done in accordance with approved plans; or describe any changes or submit "As Built" plans as appropriate.

An above grade installation is generally necessary to provide gravity drainage from RPZ devices. The additional benefits of improved access and enhanced safety are also realized with an above grade installation. Two companies, "Hot Box" and "Hydrocowl", have designed prefabricated insulated enclosures that provide heat, gravity drainage and removable access panels for servicing and testing. As an alternate, wood frame, fiberglass, steel, masonry or precast concrete structures may be utilized. All enclosures shall be designed:

Drainage for backflow prevention assemblies shall be provided for all installations of DCV or RPZ to accommodate discharge during testing or draining of the unit and for RPZ relief valve discharges, as follows:

The initial test results and certification are then submitted to the water supplier and approving agent for issuance of a Completed Works Approval. DOH - Form 1013 has been designed for both the certified test results and the designer's certification of the installation.
