Prevost PPS Aluminum Reducing Branch Tee

The Prevost PPS Aluminum Reducing Branch Tee is a specialized, high-efficiency connector designed to streamline the distribution of compressed air from a main header to smaller supply lines. Unlike a standard equal tee, this fitting features a smaller outlet on the branch leg, allowing you to transition directly from a large-diameter main loop (e.g., 63mm) to a smaller drop line (e.g., 25mm) in a single, compact component.

This “all-in-one” reduction eliminates the need for multiple bushings or reducers, minimizing leak points and installation time while maintaining optimal flow characteristics for downstream equipment.

Key Features & Benefits

• Direct Diameter Reduction: Specifically engineered to tap into high-volume main lines and step down to standard diameter drops for workstations, tools, or machinery without extra adapters.
• Cost & Space Saving: Replaces the traditional, bulky combination of a standard tee plus a separate reducer fitting. This creates a cleaner, more professional look and reduces material costs.
• Optimized Flow Dynamics: The internal geometry is designed to guide air smoothly from the larger bore into the smaller branch, reducing turbulence and pressure loss commonly associated with abrupt size changes.
• Leak-Free Integrity: Uses the proven PPS grip ring and seal technology to ensure a vibration-proof, air-tight connection at all three ports, regardless of diameter differences.
• Durable All-Aluminum Body: Resistant to corrosion, UV light, and compressor oils, ensuring a long service life even in harsh industrial environments.

Technical Specifications

• Part Series: PPS1 TR (Reducing Tee)
• Configuration: 3-Way Tee (Two equal large ports for the main line run, one smaller port for the branch/drop)
• Material: Aluminum Alloy (Body) / Stainless Steel (Grip Rings)
• Operating Pressure: Up to 232 PSI (16 bar)
• Operating Temperature: -4°F to +176°F (-20°C to +80°C)
• Vacuum Compatible: Yes (Up to 98% Vacuum)
• Fluid Compatibility: Compressed Air, Inert Gases (Nitrogen, Argon), Vacuum

Ideal Applications

• Workstation Drops: Tapping into a 40mm, 50mm, or 63mm overhead header to run a 20mm or 25mm line down to a bench or machine.
• Zoned Air Distribution: Branching off a main plant loop to supply a smaller sub-network or specific department.
• Manifold Supply: Feeding localized distribution manifolds from the primary air artery.
