Normally referred to as "anaconda" here in UK.
(OR flexie for short)

[pauly-wog]

vibration eliminators should always be installed inline with the shaft of the compressor,ideally as close to the compressor as well

If its leaking, then I give it "O" so many names.
It is a vibration eliminator,
A bit of a story, when I was a boy learning they were always called VE (by my peers), but I had to go to site with some install engineers from manchester, They I asked me to get them an "anaconda" not wanting to look like an idiot (vain in my early days) I did not ask what one was, so I went to the van with big box (being a smart arse) and filled it with every part i did not know the name of, thinking well that should sort it.
I brought the box to the plant room (after hours) and told the guys "help yourself" as you can imagine I got such a bollocking, because there was no vibration eliminators/anacondas in the box.
Now a days I just look like an idiot,and to ugly to be vain.
