CDPY Equal Union Y piece One Touch Push In
The CDC Equal Union Y Piece One Touch Push In (PY), similar to the Equal Union Tee, is a fitting used for connecting pneumatic tubes (air and vacuum lines). Here's how they differ:
- Shape: While the Tee creates a three-way junction, the Y Piece, as the name suggests, has a Y-shaped body with only two connection points. This allows you to split a single line into two separate lines, but not combine separate lines into one like the Tee.
- Applications: Y Pieces are commonly used to add a gauge or sensor to a pneumatic line to monitor air pressure or flow without interrupting the flow itself. They can also be used to vent a line.
In terms of the other features, the PY likely shares the same characteristics as the Tee you described:
- Easy to Use: "Push In" design for simple tool-free connection with just a push.
- Material: Durable and lightweight plastic that resists corrosion.
- Pressure and Temperature Rating: Compatible with most low-pressure systems, likely -1 to 10 bar and 0 to 60°C.
- Tube Sizes: Available in various sizes to fit tubes between 4mm and 12mm in diameter.
