The pigtails provide an easy means to terminate blunt end trunks pulled through conduit as well as recover trunks that get damaged during installation. Leviton MTP pigtails are constructed with ribbon style. The most basic definition is that pigtail siphons are a type of siphon that is nothing more than a looped pipe, in this case in a spiral similar to a pigtail, hence its name, although sometimes it is also used the name lyre type siphon or just lyre. These siphons are installed in vapor pressure. A pigtail is a coiled or looped section of tubing used in piping and instrumentation systems to absorb vibration, manage thermal expansion, and protect pressure instruments from direct exposure to process media. Moreover, its curved design allows it to flex under temperature or pressure changes. One essential accessory that ensures safe and accurate operation is the condensate loop, also known as a siphon tube, cooling loop, or pigtail. The tube is usually filled with a fluid, such as water, which acts as a thermal barrier or heat sink.
