Note: Braze two stainless steel manifold positions

Objective:

Simultaneously braze two positions on a stainless steel manifold 

End Product:

Manifold

Equipment:

Ambrell 10 kW induction heating system, equipped with a remote workhead containing one 1.0 μF capacitor. An induction heating coil designed and developed specifically for this application. 

Materials:

Stainless steel manifold 4 in (101.6mm) long, 1 in (25.4mm) in diameter nico braze 

Temperature:

1800 °F (982 °C)

Frequency:

198 kHz

Testing:

A dual six-turn split helical coil is used to simultaneously braze the manifold. The manifold is placed in the coil and power is applied for 20 seconds to flow the braze and create the joint.

Benefits:

  • Creates a liquid and gas-tight braze that can withstand shock and vibration

  • Precise placement of heat

  • Energy efficient

  • Hands-free heating that involves no operator skill for manufacturing
