I've got a compressor here that I pulled up the spec-sheet on. It's a Copeland RS97C1E-CAA compressor. Spec'd out for R404/R507 operation, 1.5 HP, 115v 60Hz 1 phase. All the stats are great, looks like a solid base to build a large autocascade from. My only question though is, it's rated at "245 CFM". I understand that as 245 cubic feet per minute. That is way too high unless this thing is packing a piston from a 454 big block in it, so does anyone have a clue? Could it be 2.45 CFM, that computes to ~19cc/rev at 3600RPM but for the stats was expecting maybe 25-30cc/rev.

Here's the stats on it
1940 watts @ 20F Evap, 120F Condenser, 40F suction, 120F liquid line, 95F ambient
1250 watts @ -10F Evap, 120F Condenser, 40F suction, 120F liquid line, 95F ambient
19.6 RLA, 95 LRA, 29 MCC

All I know is it's enormous and UPS is going to be pissed bringing it to my door :D If you've got any insight on this hulk, please let me know.

I have no clue, this is all I could find on it. Given it's stats, I'm thinking a CPU and GPU unit, will help me get away from my dry ice addiction :)

Checked Emerson's site ;)
That is....
2.019 inch ^3 / rev
So...
33cc... ;)

Thanks for that, don't know how I missed it. The thing is a positive monster, looks like I'll be building a CPU and dual GPU unit with solenoids on the capillary lines. Must think/plan this out and ask a ton of questions.
