Abstract
A serpentine tube heat exchanger is mounted to support racks utilizing a plurality of isolation rings composed of elastomeric material. To secure the serpentine tube to the support rack, a plurality of isolating support rings are co-linearly aligned such that the looped portion of a serpentine tube can be positioned thereon. A bolt is then passed through the support rack and isolating rings; thereafter, a mating nut is attached. Each isolation ring is generally cylindrical in shape having a collar at one end. Each ring has a hole therethrough having a metal cylindrical ring bonded to the surface of the hole.
