Scour Tee
The scour tee is usually used in conjunction with a Scour Valve, which is installed at a lower level than the pipeline, and when the scour valve is opened, it flushes sediment and debris from the bottom of the pipeline, thus emptying the pipeline. normally we need to open the scour valve when we need to repair or change the pipeline parts.The branch of scour tee is not at the same level as the centre of the pipeline, but lower, usually the lowest level of the branch is flush with the lowest level of the pipeline. This facilitates the discharge of debris.
