Questions about types of pipe fittings

View the thread, titled "Questions about types of pipe fittings" which is posted in DIY Plumbing Advice on UK Plumbers Forums.

Hi,
I'm doing an automatic irrigation project with Arduino, which is connected to a solenoid valve which has male 3/4'' threading for water input and output (this solenoid valve - product page in Italian, sorry). I need to connect the output to a 16mm polyethylene pipe, and searching online I only found this connector which is apparently supposed to be for underfloor heating. Can I connect it to the pipe even if it's for underfloor heating? Do you have any other suggestions for connectors?
Thank you

Edit: had to remove hyperlinks, seems to be causing issues as it's flagged as spam.

Plumbing sizes are bsp if you say 3/4 do you mean 3/4 bsp or 3/4 as measured with a tape measure as they are different. May differ if you are not in uk
I'm in Italy. I've only seen the 3/4 measure for threadings and it should be as measured with a tape measure. The product listing for the pipe says it's got a diameter of 16mm, and I need to connect that to a solenoid valve with a male threading which the product page says has a size of 3/4''.
