I was wondering, for HDPE pipes with a DN200 diameter, are there any fittings available to create a small branch for installing a pressure gauge? 1. Are there such small reducing tees? 2. Can welding be started directly? How do you install small-diameter components such as pressure gauges in your HDPE pipes?

There are eccentric tees; pipes and tees are connected using butt welding for larger diameters, while smaller diameters are connected via insertion. On the smaller opening of the reducing tee, one can heat-fuse a small flange. Purchase a pressure gauge with a flange and bolt it in place.

We directly drill a hole on site and then weld; our working pressure is around 0.3 MPa;

For HDPE pipes with DN200, if a pressure gauge with a small diameter is to be installed, the following methods can be used: 1. Use an eccentric tee: There are eccentric tees available on the market that are specifically designed for HDPE pipes, and an appropriate size can be chosen to connect the pressure gauge. 2. Direct opening welding: It is also possible to make a small cut directly in the HDPE pipe, and then fix the pressure gauge or its connecting fittings to the pipe using heat fusion welding. It is recommended to select the appropriate connection method based on the gauge interface size and actual operating conditions. At the same time, make sure to ensure the sealing and strength of all connections in order to avoid leaks and other safety issues. .
