Will propane flame melt copper brazing?
I have a heat exchanger made up of stainless steel plates brazed
together with copper filler. I have collected some crud inside the exchanger that I can't for the life of me get out. I was thinking of just placing the heat exchanger on my propane turkey fryer on low for an hour or so to try to incinerate the crud inside and turn it into ash. However, I don't want to melt the copper brazing and make the unit useless. I have little experience with brazing, and never with copper. Does anyone know if a propane flame will heat the brazing to the point of melting? Thanks. |
