Prevost PPS1 BP Pipe-Outlet Tapping Flanges
Creates a PPS pipe branch from the side of a compatible main line. Match both the main-pipe size and branch-pipe size. Select the exact manufacturer part number and size from the options above.
Designed for Prevost Piping System (PPS). Match the PPS pipe outside diameter or specified CC interface. A similar nominal inch size does not establish compatibility with Infinity or another piping system.
What This Fitting Does
Creates a PPS pipe branch from the side of a compatible main line. Match both the main-pipe size and branch-pipe size.
PPS fittings use the PPS Grip Concept to retain compatible aluminum pipe. Prepare pipe ends, insert to the prescribed depth and tighten to the manufacturer’s torque specification. Use Prevost’s installation instructions for the exact fitting and size.
A tapping flange provides a branch without building a traditional gooseneck from multiple elbows. Prevost’s design draws air from the side of the main line to help limit condensate carryover into the drop. It does not replace filtration or condensate drainage.

Pipe size and thread size are separate specifications. PPS sizes identify the compatible pipe outside diameter. An NPT size identifies a tapered threaded port. Choose both correctly for adapters and threaded branch fittings. Product photos may show several sizes or configurations; the selected part number determines the item supplied.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit Infinity piping?
This fitting is specified for Prevost PPS. Do not assume interchangeability based only on the nominal inch size. Contact us for help selecting a suitable transition.
How do I choose the right size?
Match the pipe outside diameter, then any threaded port or CC interface. The model table identifies the exact manufacturer part number.
Is pipe included?
No. This listing is for the selected fitting or connection component. Pipe is sold separately.
