3/4" x 1/2" FNPT Brass 90° Reducing Elbow (Lead-Free)
The P-WAT-2563 (BRE075-050) is a precision-engineered brass fitting used to create a right-angle turn in plumbing lines while simultaneously reducing the pipe size. Featuring a 3/4" FNPT connection on one side and a 1/2" FNPT connection on the other, this elbow is essential for downsizing supply lines to match smaller equipment ports or injector inlets.
Manufactured from high-quality Lead-Free Brass, this fitting is compliant with AB1953 and NSF standards, ensuring it is safe for a wide range of water-based applications. Its durable construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion from car wash chemicals and detergents, making it a reliable choice for the demanding environment of a car wash backroom.
Tommy Car Wash System Application
Within Tommy Car Wash Systems, this reducing elbow is a versatile component found in several critical chemical and maintenance assemblies:
- Tommy Detergent POD: Used to route detergent supply lines from main headers to individual chemical injectors.
- Tommy Maintenance POD: Facilitates compact plumbing layouts for maintenance and water-line transitions.
- 20-Function FLOPRO Panel: Serves as a key junction within the detergent delivery system, allowing for the organized routing of concentrated chemicals through the stainless steel control panel.
