PIP-003
ASD Barrel/Socket Union is a specialised fitting used to connect two pieces of 25 mm rigid PVC or ABS pipe in an aspirated smoke detection (ASD) system. Unlike a standard coupling, the barrel union is designed to allow future disconnection without having to cut or damage the pipe.
Advanced Technology Products are proud to only supply the highest quality products for your Aspirated Smoke Detector Sampling Network requirements.
For optimum performance, an aspirating smoke detection system needs a well designed and installed quality pipework system.
ATP’s ASD Pipe and Fittings range fulfils this requirement by creating lightweight and versatile products that have been specially developed to provide fully matched components for the optimal performance of your whole Aspirated Smoke Detection System.
Sold as a pack of 10.

The PIP‑003 ASD Barrel Union is a specialised fitting used in aspirated smoke detection (ASD) pipe networks to create a secure, yet serviceable, connection between two sections of 25 mm rigid pipe. It provides a strong bond while allowing future disassembly, making it ideal for systems where access, maintenance, or system expansion may be required.
This fitting is often installed near ASD detectors, sampling modules, or in sections of pipe that may need to be separated for flushing, cleaning, or adjustment. Made from flame retardant red ABS plastic, it is designed to withstand a wide temperature range and is fully compatible with ASD systems used in commercial, industrial, and infrastructure applications.
Each end of the union accepts a standard 25 mm pipe and is installed using solvent cement. The central threaded barrel body enables the two halves to be unscrewed later if required—without cutting the pipe. This makes the PIP‑003 a practical choice in modular or changeable environments.
