8 • When brazing refrigerant lines, an inert gas should be passed through the line at low pressure to prevent scaling and oxidation inside the tubing. Dry nitrogen is preferred. • Use long radius ell’ s f or lower pressure drop . • Provide expansion loops in long straight refrigerant lines that are subject to expansion and contraction. See ...

9 In order to compensate for the expansion of the tubing, it is necessary to estimate the amount of expansion and then provide offsets or loops in the refrigerant piping. Normally the area to be most concerned with is the straight line distance from the fixture to the parallel compressor unit. A simple form of expansion loop can be made of soft tem ...
