Short runs seems to really help pulldown time and help with load capacity :up:

Cascade benching on my GIG X48T and a E8500
Now this is a monster FSB for dd3 boards ;)
5875Mhz

Outstanding work kayl, this is a nice looking unit with some nice clocks you got going there on that 8500.
Well done again Mate.

Why not try a tad more efficienct kayl :)
Ya mean smaller compressors, the difference between a 0.75hp rotary and a 1.5hp is around $5-10US so i went for the bigger compressor. i think 1.75 or 2hp is a little big and when benching can trip the mains because im drawing too much current :yepp:Quote:

Slowly been working away on the cascade ;)
CPu suction line and HX pressure tested and insulated.

Kayl ,do You use 0.031' or 0.036' captube on second stage ?
I use 0.031", never really tried anything else. I used 2.6m on this one see how it goes.Quote:

First stage is brazed, order some more parts, once they arrive i can finish second stage :D

Looks great Kayl, i am just wondering how did you connect the acummulator (now acting as a reciever) into the loop? Which port did you use (inlet or outlet)? Does it matter anyway?
In case of Fach 0.9L reciever, what's the best way to integrate it into the loop? Via cap tube to act as a expansion tank or as a liquid reciever (as shown here on cold_ice's cascade)? What would be the benefits of either system?
Thanks in advance, looking forward to hear some explanation.
Greets,
Niko
Thanxs niko, im using the suction accumulator as an expansion tank, Without the expansion tank i would have a static pressure of about 350psi :DQuote:

Im just waiting on the solinode valve to do the hot gas bypass to the cpu head. DO you like my terminals for the mains wiring, i have to get some more links and some boot lace crimps ;)

Thanks for the answer Kayl, will imitate this expansion tank idea on my upcoming mini build. Is there any rule-of-thumb on lenght of the cap tube connecting the expansion tank or the lenght doesn't matter much?
Terminals look great, will get them myself aswell!
Gotta love the temperatures on this cascade! :up: :yepp:
longer the captube, then longer the time to drain up/fill up exp tank, vice versa. if you plan on having lots of refrigerant inside (something like 350psi static charge), then use longer cap tube, something like 2mtr so that you can have soft compressor start, but then again when turning off compressor, it would take longer time to fill up the exp tank with longer captube, be careful on high static pressure here. 1-2 mtr is enough i think.
tiborrr as andre X_X said 1-2 mt is fine for the cap line length, anything that puts a restriction between the expansion tank to slow the gas as it enters/exits the expansion tank. I think i used around 1.5m 0.031"
Use 80cms 0,8mm cap tube to exp tank.
Place the exp tank higher than the compressor.
Thanks for advice guys, i'll repositionate it above the compressor shell.
Kayl, this cascade looks better every day. Ever though of building a three-stager with R14?
:up:Quote:

ALmost finished the wiring now

The second stage will run automatically with the thermostate set to start/shut-down at a set temperature. THe high pressure cutoff switch monitors the pressure, killing the power to the second stage compressor if the pressure gets too high. THen automatically resets when pressure is at a safe level and start cooling.

jesus!
that wiring is perfect!
if ya want to go completely overkill you could sleeve that but nice job!!!
if its a secret no offense... but what is the "proper" name for those fancy electrical terminals?
cheers!
Ferrules.
thanxws teyber, yes some sleeving over the wiring like on the mach2s would be perfect :yepp:Quote:

Oops sorry I mis-read the question. :D
no probs, Just need to clean up on the final wiring, and insulate the rest of the system.Quote:
