Elbow
A pipe fitting that changes the direction of the pipeline.
Pipe fitting
Components used in a piping system for direct connection, turning, branching, changing diameter, and serving as ends, including elbows, tees, crosses, reducers, pipe clamps, internal and external threaded joints, unions, quick connectors, threaded short sections, reinforced pipe joints, pipe plugs, pipe caps, blind plates (excluding valves, flanges, fasteners, gaskets).
Vent pipe
A pipeline set up for venting at high points of pipelines or equipment.
Drainage pipe
A pipeline set up for draining at low points of pipelines or equipment.
Sampling pipe
A pipeline set up to extract media from pipelines or equipment for analysis and testing.
Pump anti-condensation pipeline
A small diameter pipeline that crosses between the shut-off valve and check valve on the pump outlet to prevent clogging by liquids that easily condense at room temperature.
Pump inlet balance pipeline
'A pipeline connecting the upper part of the pre-pump container with the high point of the pump inlet to prevent cavitation or balance pressure when transporting liquids in bubble point or vacuum state.
