You need to insulate the filter if that is subcooling causing that.. I would look at thepressure differential across the filter...Quote:

The drier that is frosted over, how cold is it?
keep going your getting closer and closer.
That really is a huge cooling unit
What the heck is ISCEON 89?? I've never heard of that gas here on xs.

Most Excellent workmanship extremecorvette
Build IT they will come :clap:
I have a new Copeland RF42C1E-CAA-205 compressor coming
Is this ISCEON 89 something new or is it usualy under another name such as R-89 or R202 or something like that or what?

I should have my new Copeland RF42C1E-CAA-205 and the Sporlan Valves in 10 days
:woot: :slobber: :slobber: :slobber: :slobber: :slobber: :woot:
DAMN what a nice project.
Looking forward on seeing it finished. Gonna be so cool (Literally :D ).
bump for an update please!!
Isceon 89 is the drop-in replacement for r13b1
Isceon 89 is quite new... It replaced a highly environment dangerous gas a few years ago./...
this monster is in-freaking-sane so far, and i have faith in it passing the -100 mark once the bugs have been worked out. Worksmanship is insane, and everything looks so good, keep at it! :slobber:
11th Update 9-26-05
I know I haven't had any updates in some time because I have been waiting on parts and the shxt has hit the fan here at school! I have no place to live, I don’t have a job, and I my girlfriend broke up with me to top it off. Don't worry I didn't loss my job I never had one, and my lease was up on my apartment. I just got done with collage and have two degrees in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, so I'm done finally, but don't worry I'm going to finish this project first. But if you know anyone that needs a good Engineer, email me.
Ideal job, working for AMD, ATi, Intel, Sapphire, ect on overclocking and pushing the parts to the max.
I got my new compressor and vales in last week so I’m just getting started on the insulation of them. If all goes as planed I’ll have this system running by Friday.
To get the new bigger compressor in I have to remove some parts, like my straps that hold the inner case that holds the motherboard with the dielectric.
I drilled out the rivets.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(223).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(224).jpg
After removing both straps, I cut the pressure lines to the gages.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(225).jpg
I'm taking out the smallest compressor and leaving the other two. So before I was trying to use the SC18MLX on the first stage, now it's going to be on my CPU on the second stage.
Out comes the SC15G
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(226).jpg
I replaced the filter for the first stage also.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(227).jpg
My first stage compressor didn't have an oil separator so I have to run a new line from the one I was using on the SC15G to the SC18MLX since it's on the second stage now.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(228).jpg
Done
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(229).jpg
Here is the big boy, it's a Copeland RF42C1E-IAA. My SC18MLX did 3000 Btu/h at -10F evap and this bad boy will do 4400 Btu/h at -10F evap and 3300 Btu/h at -25F evap.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(230).jpg
I had to bend the suction line that ran all the way to the last compressor and bend it to go to the first compressor.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(232).jpg
I also had to put in all new discharge lines for the first and last compressor, and move the cut outs.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(233).jpg
I got the compressor in the case and bolted down. I have yet to tube it but I will have the system under pressure tomorrow.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(234).jpg
man that sucks getting so close and having to redo so much, i hope you can get you can get a job and maybe a girlfriend too soon....lol
Keep up the good work!!
Well we all know the temporary alternative to a girlfriend. Good work man, keep it up.Quote:

Girlfreind, You had one ;) a new one will come 2.
Work, ass long as you geet the roughf over your head and earn money somehow. You wont go crazy.
But If you only OC computers and dont have a social life... I guess you all know what i mean :D
Once more Im happy as a child every time there is a new reply to this thread :D
Well let's hope this project you are working on has some bearing to AMD and Intel divisions :) I know ATI has been interested in these as it shows what future holds for them in essenece. But if I am not wrong, Intel do have this kind of things in work last time I heard. Maybe it will interest them once you have great working unit. It can be a show case to them at shows literally to demonstrate for them what future CPU can hold, etc :) I am pretty sure Intel has some decent hold into defense department of various nations where their interest might be a little different than say consumer market... :) have you looked into them at all? :) I would start knocking on them by calling them up and see if they have position for someone like you :)

Got the suction line in.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(236).jpg
The discharge line I had to have a second set of hands to hold it so I could braze it. They work great long as you don't clamp them to tight.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(238).jpg
The discharge line has to run all the way from the front of case to the back of the case and on the other side of it. I heated up the copper tube coming out of the condenser so I could put it on a 45-degree angle. There was no way to tube it at the angle it was at.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(238).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(240).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(237).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(239).jpg
With that done I wanted to redo the second compressor suction line so I would have all the lines for the pressure gauges on one side of the case.
Before
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(235).jpg
During Repair
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(240).jpg
After
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(247).jpg
I wanted all the lines for the pressure gages in one area.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(242).jpg
I cut all the lines to the same length
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(243).jpg
I put the smallest cap tube I could find to act as a metering device to keep the needle on the gauge from jumping around. I only did this on the discharge lines. I had that problem before so I hope this fixes it.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(244).jpg
The suction lines get 1/8" tubing
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(245).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(246).jpg
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(247).jpg
I checked to see if the gauges worked. I wanted to make sure I didn't braze one of the lines shut.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(248).jpg
I cut out most of the lines to make it easier to remove the bad TXV valve.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(249).jpg
I made sure to pull all the guts out of it before trying to un-braze it.
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~nknau...ct%20(250).jpg
Move the insulation so I don't burn it.
