39 equal divisions of the tritave (39edt) is the nonoctave tuning system derived by dividing the tritave (3/1) into 39 equal steps of approximately 48.7 cents each, or the 39th root of 3. It is also known as the Triple Bohlen-Pierce scale (Triple BP), since it divides each step of the equal-tempered Bohlen-Pierce scale (13edt) into three equal parts.

39edt can be described as approximately 24.606edo. This implies that each step of 39edt can be approximated by 5 steps of 123edo. 39edt contains within it a close approximation of 4ed11/5: every seventh step of 39edt equates to a step of 4ed11/5.

It is a strong no-twos 13-limit system, a fact first noted by Paul Erlich, and like 26edt and 52edt, it is a multiple of 13edt and so contains the Bohlen-Pierce scale. It is contorted in the 7-limit, tempering out the same BP commas 245/243 and 3125/3087 as 13edt. In the 11-limit it tempers out 1331/1323 and in the 13-limit 275/273, 847/845 and 1575/1573. It is related to the 49f&172f temperament tempering out 245/243, 275/273, 847/845 and 1575/1573, which has mapping [1 0 0 0 0 0], 0 39 57 69 85 91]]. This has a POTE generator which is an approximate 77/75 of 48.822 cents. 39edt is the ninth no-twos zeta peak edt.
