Braze: Cooling and Safety

We’ll continue next time and review characteristics employers are looking for when it comes to becoming an excellent employee and HVAC Technician.

Braze: Assembly and Heating

Brazing Alloy Application: Once the assembly reaches the appropriate temperature, the brazing alloy (filler metal) is applied to the joint. It melts and flows into the joint by capillary action.

Braze: Prep and Flux Application

The surfaces of the metal components to be joined are cleaned thoroughly to remove any contaminants that could interfere with the brazing process.

A flux, which is a chemical cleaning agent, is applied to the joint area. The flux helps to remove oxides and promote the wetting of the filler metal.

HVAC brazing is a process used in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry for joining metal components together using a filler metal that melts at a higher temperature than the materials being joined.

HVACTA: Day Two

HVAC workshops at HVAC Technical Academy are about learning quickly and safely. This is completed by limiting the number of participants during each 6-week term.
