Is there a way to control a pipe via a circuit? Specifically, like a tap that allows me to turn flow through a pipe on and off...

just place a pump down - done.
Since 0.13.9 also pumps are networkable

you have been able to connect small pumps to circuit networks for a long time, even in the 12x and probably even before

Just remember that pump is 30 fluid/sec (pipe is 150 fluid/sec in best case). Put several pumps in parallel if that's important.

Circuit controlled pipe?
