Instrument Tees
Our PTFE Lined Instrument Tees are specialized fittings within the Lined Pipe & Fittings category, designed to provide a secure, corrosion-free tap-off point for critical instrumentation, such as pressure gauges, temperature probes, or sampling lines. They allow instruments to interface with the main corrosive process line without compromising the pipeline’s chemical integrity.
Precision Design for Instrumentation Access
The Instrument Tee is built to the highest standards, ensuring both structural strength and a completely inert fluid path to the instrument connection:
- Piping Base: Constructed from durable ASTM A 106 Gr. B Schedule 40 Pipe with robust ASTM A 105 Flanges/Hubs.
- Purpose: Provides a safe and corrosion-resistant location to mount instruments or draw samples from the main process line.
- Lining Material: Seamlessly lined with high-performance polymers, including PFA (conforming to ASTM D-3307), FEP, PP, PVDF, or Antistatic PFA, ensuring a completely inert fluid path.
- Flange Standard: All connections strictly adhere to ANSI B 16.5 and ASA 150# specifications for universal compatibility.
Guaranteed Integrity and High-Pressure Capability
Every Instrument Tee undergoes stringent testing to guarantee a non-porous chemical barrier and structural durability, ensuring maximum safety for both your equipment and personnel:
| Test | Specification | Result |
| Hydro Test | $29.0 \, \text{kg/cm}^2$ after lining | Confirms extreme pressure capability. |
| Spark Test | $15 \, \text{KV DC}$ after Hydro Test | Guarantees $100\%$ lining non-porosity (verified to ASTM F 1545). |
| Dimentions | $100\%$ Visual Check | Ensures precise dimensional accuracy. |
Choose our PTFE Lined Instrument Tees for a reliable, safe, and corrosion-proof interface between your critical process and monitoring equipment.
