CuNi 70/30 Copper Nickel Equal Tee Butt Weld Fitting ASME B16.9 Anti-Biofouling
1. Product Description
Copper Nickel Equal Tee is a T-shaped pipe fitting with three equal-diameter ports. It is made from copper-nickel alloy, mainly UNS C70600 (90/10 Cu-Ni) and UNS C71500 (70/30 Cu-Ni). The fitting is produced by seamless or forging processes and is used for 90-degree branch connections in piping systems. It is manufactured according to ASME B16.9, ASTM B466/B467, MSS SP-43, and DIN 86086. The material offers high strength, excellent seawater corrosion resistance, and good welding performance. The surface is normally pickled and passivated.
2. Product Applications
-
Shipbuilding and marine engineering: seawater cooling systems, ballast water systems, fire fighting pipelines, bilge and sewage discharge systems.
-
Offshore oil and gas platforms: seawater lift pipes, equipment cooling lines, firewater ring mains, seawater injection systems.
-
Desalination plants: intake pipelines, brine circulation, reverse osmosis feed distribution, concentrate discharge.
-
Power generation: condenser cooling water systems, essential service water, circulating cooling water.
-
Petrochemical industry: transport of chloride-containing, saline, and weakly acidic media.
-
Coastal facilities: coastal fire protection, large HVAC systems, marine seawater retrofit projects.
3. Product Advantages
-
Excellent seawater corrosion resistance: stable protective film in static and flowing seawater; corrosion rate below 0.025 mm/year in marine environments.
-
Natural anti-biofouling: continuous release of trace copper ions helps prevent marine organism attachment and growth.
-
Good weldability: suitable for cold bending and flaring; generally no preheating or post-weld heat treatment required.
-
High flow velocity resistance: safe operation at seawater velocities up to 3.5 m/s.
-
Low maintenance and long service life: marine service life can reach 25 years or more.
-
Good life-cycle economy: higher initial cost than carbon steel, but lower maintenance and longer service life reduce total cost.
4. Product Functions
-
Flow splitting and combining: three equal openings allow one stream to be divided into two or two streams to be merged into one.
-
90-degree branch connection: provides a perpendicular branch in pipeline systems.
-
Balanced flow distribution: ensures stable flow among the three ports with low pressure loss.
-
Corrosive media conveyance: suitable for long-term transportation of seawater and other corrosive fluids.
-
System integrity: maintains structural strength and sealing performance under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions.
