Prevost PPS Aluminum Pipe Cross Fitting (4-Way)

Description

Prevost PPS Aluminum Pipe Cross Fitting (4-Way)

The Central Hub for Complex Air Distribution.

Simplify your pipe layout and maximize airflow with the Prevost PPS Cross Fitting. Designed for the Prevost Piping System (PPS1), this 4-way connector allows you to join four pipe sections at a single intersection point.

Instead of using multiple T-fittings and short pipe nipples—which increase pressure drop and leak potential—the Prevost Cross provides a clean, compact, and efficient solution for creating central distribution nodes or grid layouts in your compressed air network.

Key Features & Benefits

• Efficient 4-Way Distribution: Allows for the intersection of main headers or the creation of a central drop point where air needs to split in three directions from a single supply line.
• Full-Bore Flow: Engineered with an optimized internal geometry that maintains full pipe diameter, ensuring zero turbulence and minimal pressure drop across the junction.
• “Prevost Grip Concept”: Features the legendary stainless steel grab ring and lubricated seal mechanism. Installation is instant: simply push the pipe in for a secure, leak-proof connection that holds up immediately.
• 100% Aluminum Body: The lightweight aluminum alloy construction matches the thermal expansion of the pipe, preventing stress cracks and ensuring the fitting never weighs down your suspension hardware.
• Compact Footprint: Replaces bulky assemblies of multiple fittings, creating a cleaner, more professional look in overhead installations.

Ideal Applications

• Grid Loops: Joining perpendicular headers in large warehouse “grid” systems to equalize pressure across the facility.
• Central Manifolds: Creating a central distribution point above a cluster of workstations.
• By-Pass Loops: Constructing compact bypass valves or service loops around heavy equipment.

Why Use a Cross Fitting?

Every additional fitting in a system adds resistance (pressure drop). By using a single Prevost PPS Cross instead of three Tees to do the same job, you improve the energy efficiency of your system and cut installation time in half.
