OXYACETYLENE TORCH | ACETYLENE used to braze copper pipes to hvac compressor , with brazing rods / silver solder , learn how to braze copper . #d2dnyac #hvac
CORRECTION !THE TORCH SETUP IN THIS VIDEO IS ACETYLENE , OXYACETYLENE IS A COMBINATION OF OXYGEN AND ACETYLENE USING 2 SEPARATE TANKS & HOSES AND MIXES IN THE TORCH
If you connect one refrigerant hose to either king valve with the Schrader caps removed, you can at least achieve the "appearance" of flowing nitrogen through the lines while brazing.
I like and watch your videos, how much are saving the customer by not putting s new filter dryer and not flowing nitrogen. If this is your house or rental property then I can understand, unless the customer could not aford or did not want to pay for the extra work or hourly rate to do a better job, NY for sure is pretty expensive, how old was the unit, and how much service life could the unit possibly last instead of replacing the entire evaporator and condenser. Your a very goof technician and know your trade. You could work anyware.
If so you were,,, you don't need that every time you are Brazing friend! On this type of system with only brazing a handful of joints, these units has more than enough tolerance for handling the miniscule oxidation accumulation from brazing the joints!!
@@D2DNYAC Nope! I was asking if you used nitrogen, or if you didn't think it was necessary to use it. You clearly have been doing this alot longer than me. I have seen the inside of joints after brazing without nitrogen. They all had soot. When you panned your camera I didn't see the nitrogen. Just trying to gain an understanding about best practices in the field. Cheers!
I know lol 😂 work was in progress! This was a brazing copper pipes video ! Not a how to replace compressor video , nitro purge is good practice however wasn’t needed here, liquid line filter drier was replaced and relocated to the exterior of the unit and compressor bolted down
Yes sir my mistake 😂 the torch used in the video wasn’t oxygen /air and acetylene, it was Acetylene, I apologize for the mixup. I will have a 2nd video on hvac welding apparatus
Everyone is wise guy. It isn't air. The air you breath has carbon dioxide, nitrogen, water vapor, etc in the mix. Industries use oxygen which is exactly just that. Their is even traces of argon in the air you breath.

Agreed 🤔
Very pretty braze joints! You make it look easy! Never thought to take off the access panel like that, great idea!
Thanks for watching

Nitrogen bleed , good practice! However that wasn’t necessary for this brazing job/ circumstance

What’s nitrogen flow for?
@charles Solazzo Jr go to my home page on youtube page and click on community,, thanks for the support 🙏
Where did you put the nitrogen?
Yes yes no leaks
@N Sudatta-Roy yo please don't tell me you were talking about Nitrogen purge 😒

@@D2DNYAC Appreciate the reply.
Why is the compresor. Not on the right place you need to calibrate the bolts … and also you didn’t purge the lines before connecting the compressor…
Thanks for sharing
No nitro, no filter dryer replacement, no bolts holding the compressor down, so much to comment on.

@xcentric lithium thanks for watching 🙏
@xcentric lithium go to my Instagram page #d2dnyac and click on recent for pics of the completed compressor job
Seems like you know about it why don’t you make a video and we can see how you do it better ?
@@D2DNYAC Fuckn Ehh these guys are some haters Good Video Bro
air acetylene
lol 😂 I guess you can call it that
That’s exactly what it is.

638 guy ?
B tanks are awful get ya oxyacetylene set up
I never used that never needed the xtra heat Lol 😂, Acetylene works great for me, largest pipes I worked is 1&1/4 inch, no issues with my B tanks 💪💪
