vent derivation

Explanation:
A pipe derivation is an accesory that permits connections to be made. As the pressure gauge does not transmit momentum only one hole is needed and it is normally obtained by installing a T.

A by-pass needs two holes and momentum is transmited along the by-pass, furthermore a T has to be connected to the by-pass so as to install the gauge. It is used for sampling and various meassurements with the fluid in movement. Not the case.
