eliminator is cleaned and dehydrated for refrigeration
service, individually boxed and sealed in plastic film.
3. The maximum test pressure is 1.5 times the maximum
operating pressure which is tabulated in Column 4.
4. The minimum burst pressure is 5 times the maximum
operating pressure which is tabulated in Column 4.
5. The copper tube ends are designed as sweat connections for
refrigeration tubing. The inside surface conforms to
ASME/ANSI B16.18 and B16.22.
6. All configurations are available with male copper tube ends.
 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Brazing and soldering flux must be removed immediately 4. If condensation will collect and freeze: the entire flexible
after installation. Chlorides will cause premature failure of section, ferrules and braided hose, must be covered with
stainless steel vibration eliminators. water tight material.
2. Wrap the ferrule and approximately 2" of the braid with
a wet cloth to prevent overheating during brazing and
soldering.

5. Vibration Eliminators are most effective when installed

perpendicular to the major motion. The fixed end should be
securely anchored as close as possible to the Vibration
Eliminator. When major motion exists in two planes two
Vibration Eliminators should be installed.

3. Direct the torch away from the ferrule and braided section. AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE
TO VIBRATION ELIMINATOR
Avoid contact of the flame with the ferrule and braid.
