-25 to -35C loaded
found leak?
looking for it
Ok few pics presenting looking for those god damn leaks...
Pic from yesterday: letting freon out (was contaminated with air cause i didnt vacuum properly)
i am only reading what you guys are doing with your pc's :PQuote:
Jak milo widziec polaka na XS ;] Jeszcze chyba tylko Quad tutaj jest z Polski :D
:toast:
i've seen spiderman's posts...
:rolleyes:
berkut how long have you been doing this now ? year ? year and 1/2 ?
btw, i'm in usa (manassas, va) now :D
Ok, new stuff
First of all i found that god damn mother §§§§ing leak, its in the condenser, found it this way:
Heres a pic of the isolation i used, the first layer was a foam wich is used to pack computer stuff and the second is normal isolation foam, in the finished unit ill use 2cm armaflex
And the pic od the subchiller being made (the thing wich lacked in the first revision)
Ill give some more percise pics later
damn -25/-35 load is damn good! lol what kinda setup u puttin this on?
This is the I stage so it will cool the II stage and the cpu ;]
And it will sit on a barton 2500+ and later on a sk8n + opteron 140
Ok, 2 pics of my subchiller rdy
Gotta clean it from soldering paste :\
And the 2 pic
How much do you think this thing will cost you in the end? Looks like a lot of various items are needed
Gonna be worth it though :slobber:
berkut, are you using an oil separator in this setup?
I cant wait to see this thing run. Ive been watching this thread since its beginning. Hurry up Berkut! LOL keep up the good work

the end result's should be worth the time and money.
but i dont want him to hurry and finish becuase i enjoy reading all his finding's and great work....hope it never end's..
BUT, as he gets closer the psi goes up. As does the danger. The cascade can be positively lethal.
As far as money goes, if he posts a paypal donate ill donate a few bucks hes making progress.

sorry for the slowdown guys, that darn I stage still leaks and i cant find the leak :\
i dont do anythin with it right now, i have to buy more parts and a condenser probably (but during the tests it didnt leak)
Im also made a lil micro chiller, its a small phase change made out of my II stages cascades compressor and an old condenser + a 120mm fan
as an evap i use a frimped from one side and brazed from the other 28mm OD tube to a 5x5x3mm plate
its made to make me more happy, at least this system doesent leek and i can test some mounting ideas
pic of the isolation hardening on my evap
Thats why i was in a shop today, www.berling.com.pl (currently the best shop in poland as far as it goes for me, love these guys, they help a lot, extremelly customer friendly) for some parts.Quote:

Bought a high side presostat, a electromagnetic valve, filters for the first and second stage, 6 service valves and some pipe caps.
Where i will use the electromagnetic valve and presostat ? Here we go:
The presostat will be connected to the compressors outlet before the condenser (so as little as possible gas goes there) where it will be set to lets say 15 bar. During normal working conditions the I stage should keep the II stages condenser nice and cool so the pressures are low, lets say 10 bar. But if the I stage failures- cooling dissapears, pressure in the II stage raises, the gas in the condenser has almost no where to go and would go kaboom if there wasnt the electromagnetic valve between the high and low pressure sides. The presostat openes the valve and the compressor in the II and I stages shut down (electricity is cut down), pressures go down cause the freon can go to the relief tank and nothing bad happens.
Normally when the system is shut off the valve is also opened to let the freon flow from the condenser to the relief tank on the low temp side.
This way i get rid of few problems i had.
Some pics; the presostat:
The electromagnetic valve
Some other stuff i bought (for the chipset evap and maybe vga evap)
The future evaps
One more pic
And the compressor i got for free today (the guy wich gave it to me saw my work)
