Description
B7MPS-G250 Clamp Short Outlet Tee - 2-1/2" 304 Stainless Steel
Dixon B7MPS-G250 is a 2-1/2" sanitary clamp short outlet tee manufactured from 304 stainless steel for hygienic and process piping applications.
Part of Dixon's B7MPS Short Outlet Tee family, this fitting provides three 2-1/2" sanitary clamp connections in a compact tee configuration. Its shortened outlet geometry provides a 90-degree branch while reducing branch projection compared with a conventional sanitary tee.

Short Outlet Tee Configuration
The B7MPS-G250 uses a tee configuration with three 2-1/2" sanitary clamp connections. Both ends of the straight run and the 90-degree branch use the same 2-1/2" tube O.D. size.
Unlike a reducing tee, the outlet does not transition to a smaller size. The defining feature of the B7MPS series is its shortened branch geometry, which provides a more compact sanitary branch connection.
This configuration can be useful where nearby tanks, valves, process equipment, walls, or structural components limit available installation space.
304 Stainless Steel Construction
The B7MPS-G250 is manufactured from 304 stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant material widely used in sanitary and general process piping systems.
304 stainless steel is commonly selected for compatible food, beverage, dairy, brewery, winery, and industrial process applications where cleanability and durable stainless steel construction are important.
Material suitability should always be confirmed for the actual process media, concentration, operating temperature, cleaning chemistry, sanitation procedures, and surrounding environment.
Sanitary Clamp Connections
2-1/2" Main Run
- Two 2-1/2" sanitary clamp connections
- Straight-through flow path
- Maintains 2-1/2" tube O.D. through the run
- Removable clamp-style joints
- Designed for compatible sanitary tubing systems
2-1/2" Short Outlet
- One 2-1/2" sanitary clamp branch connection
- 90-degree branch from the main run
- Same tube O.D. as the straight run
- Compact short-outlet geometry
- Useful where branch projection needs to be minimized
Published Dimensions
| Tube O.D. | 2-1/2" |
|---|---|
| Current Dimension A | 3.50" |
| Current Dimension B | 1.88" |
| Older Overall Run | 7.000" |
| Older Short Outlet Height | 1.875" |
Dixon's current hygienic fittings catalog lists the 2-1/2" B7MPS configuration with dimension A of 3.50" and dimension B of 1.88". Older Dixon literature lists the horizontal dimension as 7.000" overall with a 1.875" short-outlet height.
For fabrication, equipment clearance, or installations where dimensional fit is critical, verify dimensions against the latest applicable Dixon dimensional drawing before installation.

Why Use a Short Outlet Tee?
Compact Branch Geometry
A short outlet tee reduces branch projection compared with a conventional sanitary tee. This can help where nearby equipment or structural components limit available installation space.
Removable Sanitary Connections
Sanitary clamp connections allow the fitting to be removed from compatible piping systems for cleaning, inspection, maintenance, or equipment changes.
3-A Sanitary Information
Dixon's current hygienic fittings catalog places the B7MPS Short Outlet Tee family under 3-A Sanitary Standard 63-04 and authorization number 621.
Application-specific sanitary, regulatory, certification, documentation, installation, and inspection requirements should still be confirmed for the complete process system.
Sanitary Fitting Selection
Dixon identifies B7MPS-G250 as a 2-1/2" tube O.D. sanitary clamp short outlet tee. All three connections use the same 2-1/2" tube O.D. configuration.
Sanitary fitting sizes are based on tube outside diameter. Confirm the existing tube O.D. and mating sanitary connection geometry before ordering.
Also confirm that 304 stainless steel is appropriate for the process media, cleaning chemistry, operating temperature, sanitation requirements, and surrounding environment.
Gasket & Clamp Selection
Sanitary Gaskets
- Select compatible gaskets for all three connections
- Confirm the correct sanitary connection size
- Select gasket material for the process media
- Verify temperature compatibility
- Confirm compatibility with cleaning chemicals
- Inspect gaskets before assembly
Sanitary Clamps
- Use compatible sanitary clamps at all three connections
- Confirm mating connection geometry
- Inspect clamps before installation
- Align mating faces before tightening
- Properly support connected tubing
- Do not use clamps to pull misaligned piping into position
Installation
Before installation, confirm the B7MPS-G250 part number, 2-1/2" tube O.D., short outlet tee configuration, and 304 stainless steel construction.
Inspect all three sanitary connection faces for contamination, scratches, dents, deformation, or other damage that could interfere with proper gasket sealing.
Install compatible sanitary gaskets between each pair of mating connection faces. Select gasket material according to the process media, operating temperature, cleaning chemistry, sanitation procedures, and other system requirements.
Align connected tubing and equipment before installing and tightening the sanitary clamps. Do not use the clamps to force misaligned tubing into position.
Properly support the run and branch piping so equipment weight, vibration, or other external loads are not transferred unnecessarily to the fitting or sanitary joints.
After installation, inspect all three connections and verify leak-free operation under appropriate process conditions before placing the system into normal service.
Our team can help confirm your tube O.D., stainless steel grade, clamp size, gasket material, dimensions, and mating sanitary components before you order.
