Introduction

The main function of a vibration eliminator is to absorb compressor vibration and stop its transition into the pipe work and components of refrigeration or air-conditioning system. By isolating the compressors vibration the risk of damage to pipe work and the associated components is reduced.

Manufactured from a deep wave pitch corrugated stainless steel hose they are then enclosed in a tightly interwoven stainless steel braid for greater support and security. Both the hose and the braid are reinforced at each end by overlapping stainless steel ferules with high temperature brazed solid copper connections.

Heldon Vibration eliminators are suitable for all fluorinated refrigerants and their associated oils dependent on operating pressures and in all lines of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. When used is suction lines the entire vibration eliminator should be sealed with in an insulation layer.

Installation Considerations
a.    Vibration eliminators should be installed as close
as possible to the compressor.   
b.    Vibration eliminators are not designed to compensate
for pipe work misalignment and should only be installed in straight lines.
c.    Vibration eliminators are not designed to absorb axial
or torsional stress and should not be installed under compression or tension.
d.    Vibration eliminators should be installed perpendicular
to the direction of vibration (inline with the compressor crankshaft).
