freezer compressor has this seal...
my refrigeration engineer isn't used to stuff this big (30hp) and he's struggling to get an answer from anyone he knows
what kind of seal should be in there?
does the copper of the pipe fitting just seal against the steel of the compressor end fitting?
the fitting is pretty big (2.5inch ish pipe ? - caliper battery died so bit of a guess) - so I assume the copper will be pretty hard?
I'm guessing a soft copper washer?
shouldn't be under 100psi there, but test pressure is a few hundred
