Common applications of copper tubes
To begin with, common applications of copper tubes are in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Copper tubes are used as a path for the refrigerant to flow between system components and to contain it from escaping to the atmosphere. Furthermore, sizing, installation layout, and fittings must be done properly to ensure that the system runs efficiently.
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.
Common applications of copper tubes 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, firefighting networks, and other industrial installations.
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
