1/2″ (12.6mm) straight copper pipe in Nairobi Kenya
Dandy Solutions is the largest distributor of 1/2″ (12.6mm) straight copper pipe in Nairobi Kenya for refrigeration & air conditioning purposes. To begin with, copper tubes in Nairobi Kenya are one of the components needed in air conditioning and refrigeration system. Copper tubes are used as a path for the refrigerant to flow between system components and to contain it from escaping to the atmosphere. Moreover, sizing, installation layout, and fittings must be done properly to ensure that the system runs efficiently.
Copper is used in a wide range of products due to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, good strength, good formability and resistance to corrosion. Pipe and pipe fittings are commonly manufactured from these metals due to their corrosion resistance. Furthermore, they can be readily soldered and brazed, and many can be welded by various gas, arc and resistance methods. They can be polished and buffed to almost any desired texture and luster. Pure copper is rather soft and malleable and a freshly exposed surface has a pink or peach color.
Usually in refrigeration and air conditioning, driving networks of refrigerant (refrigeration gases) constitute piping performed with copper pipe and tubes. Copper is one of the most resistant metals and appropriate for the transportation of fluids and has the advantage of having surfaces, both the outside and inside, fairly regular, smooth, dry and clean
During installation, it is of utmost importance to prevent moisture, dirt and other contaminants from entering the system. In any case, these foreign particles will affect the performance of the system and may even cause damage to some of the components.
The main advantages of the copper pipe that justify their application so widespread in refrigeration facilities and air conditioning, hydraulic (hot and cold water), the fire fighting installations, installations of combustible gases, the medical gas facility and various industrial installations, are:
- Firstly, supports high temperatures
- Secondly, offers the best conditions of safety
- Thirdly, is eco-friendly and recyclable
- Fourthly, a noble material
- Long durability
- Lastly, presents good mechanical, chemistry, and corrosion resistance
The main areas of application of copper piping (pipes and accessories) are:
- Firstly, cooling and refrigeration (industrial, commercial and domestic, in cars),
- Secondly, different electrical components
- Thirdly, various decorative elements
- Fourthly, hydraulic networks
- Gas networks (fuels and medicinal),
- Lastly, fire fighting networks, and other industrial installations.
