Cool stuff 👍🏽
Good video other than the fact we can't see what your doing due to the fact your subject is below the camera view. However, I think those of us who are tech savvy got the gist of it.
Chris did an excellent job of explaining the importance of the stab depth and the marking of such👍. I’ve worked for the natural gas utility in the Saint Louis Metropolitan area for 35 years (obviously Sporlan knows the company) and I have seen press fittings and insertion fittings used to outstanding success and to devastating failures. In investigating the failures it almost always boiled down to installer error (Poor insertion, not marking stab depth, poor preparation and cut O-rings due to such). Just to let you know the first thing I look for when incidents happen is that stab depth & stab depth marking. Now with the flammable refrigerants your industry will surely be investigating incidence once you have an approved O ring for flammable refrigerant.
Agreed 100%, you have to take the time an follow the manufacturers instructions to the TEE. One thing that I just recently learned (the hard way). Is that don’t mix fittings and crimping tools from different manufacturers. If you use zoom-lock, use zoom-lock fittings AND the zoom-lock crimping tool. I was on a job last week, where a subcontractor used zoom-lock fittings but used another type of crimping tool. The end result, every single fitting had a damaged O-ring because the crimping tool used had a different jaw pattern than what was on the fittings. There were dozens and dozens of leak points 😵😵😵.
You can only use ZoomLock MAX jaws with ZoomLock MAX fittings.
You can’t see what he is doing to the pipe.. Camera should had been focused on his hands.
We will be posting another video that focuses more on his hands very soon. Look for Part 2!
How do you zoom lock when your unit has female fixing. Like an air handler.
does it make a difference if you put a form of lubricant such as nylog
Rothenberger do not specify the use of any fluids or lubricants. You have to use the proper preparation and cleaning procedure as well as using their marking stencil. I haven’t used zoom-lock or any other brand so I can’t comment on their procedures.
Just to clarify I’ve only used Rothenberger fittings and crimping tools, but not other brands.
You can use nylog with ZoomLock MAX refrigerant fittings.
I’m waiting for DEWALT to come out with a zoom lock Equivalent.
We do have compatibility with Dewalt DCE 200 for the 32Kn ZoomLock MAX Refrigerant Fittings and Jaws.
