Specs :

Compressor: Danfoss NL11F
evap: chilly1 patern (made in Poland :D)
holddown: PCV 10mm
XV: CPEV Fach "PZ"
condenser: 24x24 cm, 2 row, alu-cu, 6 pcs Artic Pro Fan TC 80 mm (moded @ full speed of work)
Refrigerant : R507
Case :D : Chipboard, 30x35 cm, painted orange (special mix by piotres :D )
others: Low side gauge, SLHX

Very nice job!!:) I like it - how is the cpev working?

[piotres]

It works fine ;) :D ...Just put the refrigerant till the valve isn't hissing at all - then Yoo can tune the sucton pressure between eg. -0.8 bar to 1.0 bar or more :p: . Nice toy .
But somethimes there are problems with POE oil and CPEV ..it just freeze and the tunning won't work ..so I must change the filter ;) . I have second unit with mineral oil and same CPEV - all works fine.

PS. Of course the paper tapes, are just a secure for paint in building time :)

Have got to love it (in some very insane way) :D It's a very fine unit, thought I would have prefered another color - It hurts my eyes to look at it ;)

What are the temp loaded and unloaded??

[piotres]

I must change the filter and put a new R507 portion - should be -40 to -45*c load :)

Did you purge while brazing? I see some oxidation inside the pipe!

[Athens[2004]]

nICE and clean job :) but i think u start search for some smaller condesors :) [120X120 or lilte biger ]

[SustaiN]

WOW Piotres! Again u amaze me with your awesome work! I love the color and it looks very clean, neat 'n' nice! Keep up tha good work bro! This is definitely one of the best-looking SS I've ever seen ;)

[\Karting_freak]

is that thing above the compressor an slhx?!

[piotres]

is that thing above the compressor an slhx?!

yes

@star882 : yes I haven't purged the SLHX when I have brazed it ...the pipe inside sure have some oxides but only in some cm ..maybe 5 cm . So it won't be a problem for sure .

@SustaiN : THX :D

[\Karting_freak]

both your filter and condenser are huge...
using twice smaller condenser you wouldnt loose anything but a start up time would be less

hehe I really want to have a smaller condensers ..but in Poland now I can't get anything smaller :rolleyes:

[\Karting_freak]

that sucks...
how about using a smaller filter?

[star882]

A larger condenser (within reason) can't hurt, and it can provide more cooling. With all the fans, you also get redundancy; if one fan fails, it will still work.

The desuperheater is definately extra, although it'll make a good vibration damper.

[piotres]

Big filter in units with CPEV and POE is necessity .

this WONT help. half a degree means nothing actually but start up time rises a lot )

piotres
tnks didnt know that... i'm now building a rig with cpev so your advice is helpful )))

[piotres]

Hi

A little sample :

Pure R507, CPEV closed completelly :D

Whats your low side pressure at 70.9 ??????

[piotres]

I haven't measured it ;)

[Waus-mod]

What will the load be estimated?

[4everCS]

Looks like a great system!! Why dont you guys use better filter dryers?? Like a parker or a Sporlan... They work 100 times better than a spun copper one. The spun copper ones only have a screen, sometimes a little bit of silica gel....

[Jort]

every commercial freezer has one of those, its no use to have a bigger one with this system.

[SexyMF]

Nice work. The orange makes a loud change to all the jet black units people make!

[jinu117]

Ahaha... I can hear compressor saying... "Man... give me back some cooled refrigerant... do you want to kill me?".
But definitely excellent unit even for just show off :P

[piotres]

Hello

Hehe, jinu117, I haven't heard the NL11F's voice with that tests ...I think he was happy, that he make so nice temps ;)

I think ,I can said ...FINISH : :D

First start-up, just before turning on the PC :cool:

http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/piotres1/orangeice/22.jpg

I have seen -30*C too :D

http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/piotres1/orangeice/23.jpg

I have tuned a bit with CPEV and I have ...

Venice 3204 Mhz/ 1.79V @ SP2004 run so full loaded ..-48*C evap :)

http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/piotres1/orangeice/24.jpg

Idle Venice 3204 Mhz/ 1.79V .. -52*C evap

http://www.members.lycos.co.uk/piotres1/orangeice/25.jpg

Source of fun with tuning the unit ...CPEV's knob :p:

[Fhqwhgads6680]

Wow, that is a really nice SS man, Keep up the awesome work. :toast:

[Frostologe]

Good work and very nice temps.

[sl4ck]

where's your pressure gauge connected?
