Will the victaulic coupling dampen the vibration from the source equipment?
The Victaulic system will dampen a small amount of the vibration from the source equipment due to the type of connection it is, pulse and axial forces due to the displacment of the product or the action of the delivery equipment or just the expansion of the piping will not be dampened. I believe there are fittings available to address the problem of vibration transfer. cheers
