Straight Union Dielectric Fitting

Straight Union Dielectric Fitting

Dielectric Fittings are designed to insulate subsystems from electrical current, voltages and static charges. Installed on impulse lines lines ahead of monitoring stations in natural gas pipelines, the fittings interrupt cathodic current flow while permitting full fluid flow.
