By using up to 52% less refrigerant than traditional tube-and-fin condenser coils, the Environ Coil offers users sustainable savings. The all-aluminum construction also results in a lighter unit weight, shaving approximately 90 pounds from a 10-ton rooftop unit. Fewer brazed joints—up to 20% fewer compared to traditional coils—decrease the potential of leakage for increased system reliability. Finally, a mounting configuration that uses rubber inserts provides vibration dampening to prevent damage during shipping, as well as isolation to protect against corrosion. This white paper will detail the effects of corrosion on the Environ Coil as compared to standard industry all-aluminum coils, with specific regard to contributing factors, mechanisms and the outdoor environment. p. 2 CORROSiON OF ALL-ALUMiNUM hEAT EXChANGERS USED iN OUTDOOR hVAC A ppLiCATiONS overview of a luminum corrosion When we process ores from the earth, we add en
