Verified model passport / Zurn Wilkins

720A

Pressure vacuum breaker

The 720A looks like one device family, but Zurn separates its repair-kit path at the 1 inch / 1 1/4 inch boundary. Confirm the body size first, then choose complete internal or bonnet service.

Published irrigation PVB family

Zurn positions the 720A for irrigation backflow protection. A correct kit does not resolve freeze-cracked bodies, incorrect installation height, or local testing and reporting requirements.

Compatibility workstation

Match the size and repair scope.

Use the complete model label, nominal body size, and failed component. The tool only exposes combinations found in the cited manufacturer material.

Choose a size band to reveal compatible published kits.

Identity check

Confirm this model before ordering.

Similar-looking assemblies can use different internals. A search result or pipe size alone is not enough.

  1. 01

    Confirm the body label reads 720A; do not apply these parts to an unmarked look-alike or a different Wilkins PVB.

  2. 02

    The published complete-kit boundary changes after 1 inch: RK1-720A is for 1/2–1 inch, while RK2-720A is for 1 1/4–2 inch assemblies.

  3. 03

    A bonnet repair kit and a complete internal repair kit address different scopes; do not use a bonnet kit to assume the check and internal parts are serviceable.

Before return to service

A matching kit is not a passed assembly.

Stop for body damage. Cracks, distortion, severe corrosion, or freeze damage can move the job from internal service to replacement.

Test after repair. Where the assembly is regulated, the governing utility or authority decides tester approval, reporting, and deadlines.

Use the current instructions. Part references can change. Confirm availability and supersession with the manufacturer or an authorized supplier.
