Description
EMT’s Hydraulic Pressure Access Fittings are engineered for safe, reliable access to pressurized pipelines and vessels. They are designed to support a wide range of applications including corrosion monitoring, chemical injection, sampling, and retrieval of probes or coupons—all without requiring system shutdown.
These fittings are compatible with standard high-pressure access systems and are suitable for use in harsh environments, including offshore and high-temperature/high-pressure (HTHP) applications.
Types of EMT Hydraulic Pressure Access Fittings
1. Flange Access Fitting
Description:
A Flange Access Fitting is a type of access fitting that is installed using a flange connection. It provides a robust, leak-proof seal and is ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
Features:
- Designed for ANSI and DIN standard flanges (e.g., ANSI 150, 300, 600, etc.)
- Allows easy integration into existing flanged pipeline systems
- Supports corrosion monitoring, chemical injection, or sampling
- Available in various materials (e.g., carbon steel, stainless steel, Inconel)
- Facilitates safe insertion and retrieval using EMT’s retrieval tools
Applications:
- Offshore platforms
- Refineries
- Chemical plants
- Power generation facilities
2. Welded Access Fitting
Description:
A Welded Access Fitting is permanently welded to the pipeline or vessel. It provides a compact and cost-effective solution, especially where flange connections are not feasible.
Features:
- Weld-on connection for permanent installation
- Suitable for small diameter pipelines or tight spaces
- Designed to withstand high-pressure environments
- Compatible with standard EMT retrieval tools and service valves
- Available in multiple alloys to match pipeline material
Applications:
- Onshore pipelines
- Flowlines and risers
- Compact systems with space constraints
- Long-term corrosion monitoring installations
Key Benefits of Access Fitting
- Safe under pressure: Designed to allow probe/coupon retrieval without depressurizing the system
- Versatile: Compatible with a range of corrosion monitoring and chemical injection components
- Customizable: Available in various sizes, materials, and pressure ratings
- Long service life: Built for durability in extreme environments
