Importance of Copper Tubes in Refrigeration Systems

First of all, copper tube is the transportation channel for refrigerant. It connects the compressor, condenser, evaporator and other major components, which enables the refrigerant to circulate in the system and make the refrigeration process run smoothly. For example, in air conditioning, gaseous and liquid refrigerants switch positions between different components through copper tubing to realize heat exchange.

Secondly, the good thermal conductivity of copper tubing helps to improve the efficiency of the refrigeration system. It can quickly transfer heat out or absorb heat, allowing the evaporator to cool efficiently and the condenser to dissipate heat effectively.

Moreover, the corrosion resistance and chemical stability of copper tube can ensure the service life of the system. During long-term use, it can withstand pressure and temperature changes inside the refrigeration system as well as the erosion of chemicals such as refrigerants and lubricants.
