I was gathering parts for my upcoming cascade and I ordered a few accumulators. The first one arrived today, for some reason I thought it was so much smaller than it was. Here it is, sitting next to the 2nd stage compressor and stubby 4 pounder full of ethylene. Rated for 355psi working pressure and I believe a 6.9 liter capacity, looks like I'll have some nice static pressures :D Still gathering plate HXs and oil separators for this project, haven't decided if I want to incorporate an autocascading system into it or not. All that is certain now is I'll atleast be part of the -100C club sometime soon :ROTF:

It will take all the gas in that bottle to fill the accumulator :eek:

Wouldn't there be oil return problems from an oversized accumulator?
