Phase change gurus...look what i found in the cellar...

[brwmogazos]

I work as a supervisor in a bar here in the UK while not in the uni and today i decided to take some pics of a compressor running 24/7 in the cellar that is used with big fans to keep the cellar cool...

the pics are taken with my P900 mobile so theres no detail and they are not as clear...

would such a compressor be suitable for use with pcs?:p

that is a big b@**@rd...

some of these specs which cant be seen easily due to the pic quality are 14.5 litres and 400psi(Dunno what they mean etc of course...)

ok comparing the compressor of the cella with the one that comes with the mach 2 gt even as a newbie in compressor setups i can see its missing the radiator with fan part that cools the R134a...i cant understand how it works...hot refrigerant gets cooled where...cold refridgerant goes into the fans in a heat exchanger or something?

Can you get ahold of that if you wanted it?

Either it has a remote condenser on the roof or on an outside wall. It may be water colled also.

i have noticed it has lines coming of the compressor going through the walls...

tuesday night i am working again...i will have a close look to each line and where its going...

It will go out through the wall, either into a alley or most likely the back of the building, were there will be a condenser housing, that looks a lot like the evap housing in the penultimate picture of the first post.

You see them on the outside of buildings all the time, big mesh bit and a fan, or two in this case.

Thats a big monster, three phase.

TDF.

Saw a compressor that looked alot like that one, it was 3hp, 3 phase. Love the sound they make :D.
