Bigger compressor means bigger cooling capacity
well, for now im not hoping very good result, its my first cascade, -70@200w is my target.... im just wanna finish it first, gain experience from it and then modify it...
thx for all your helps....

-70*C@200W with that compressor can be, very, very, very hard. If possible imho.
what temp should i expect with that compressor then? -60c @ 200w maybe?
changin to Daikin Rotary R22 3/4hp would be fine? its cheap here only $50

That 3/4HP rotary would be much better option :-)
Hard to tell you how good results you can achieve with your small compressor, maybe -60C, maybe less, maybe more. But don`t think so that -70C
all right, time to save money .... for now i dont have other choice rather than using this 1/3 comp. need to learn how to play with this baby first before changing/adding some parts...

anyway, this is my 2nd stage comp datasheet....
what do you think?

270W at what temperature?

its hard to say with c02, unless you blend it correctly getting past -55c can be hard, -60's could be possible. Try what you have can always change the compressor later. I found 2 big rotaries makes -70c a little easier with c02.
being its a r12 compressor id say its at -23c at 270w when using r12. so spec sheets dont mean much as we use different refrigerants with different boiling points.
Being 12cc i think it will be fine for a "test" system
What are the test conditions the datasheet uses to get that 270W evaporating capacity on r12?

@tom: don't know tom, they dont mention it, but as kayl said, it was -23.3c @ 270w...
anyway, i decided to make a custom oil sep rather than buy it as i dont have enough money. the Alco A-W55877 with 7/8 OD is $65 but i have unused Dry ice container with 25cm height and 2" diameter, just need to make the top lid and adding steel wol . it'll save some money. btw, do i need to Prefill the custom oil sep?

i dont know what the oil on my 2nd stage comp. so i think i'll just leave it out...
anyway, how many steel wol should i put in oil sep? 3/4 height of oil sep enough?

allright i've got an idea about putting a hx on 2nd stage, but not from suction line (slhx)... how if i put the discarghed line inside the main HX? so i'll buy 5/8 copper and put 2x 1/4", one from compressor and one from oil sep, would it be okay?

discharge line from compressor has temp around...+90*C, HX won`t handle it.
I am fixing (the electronics) of a small cascade system at the moment. In there build, the oil seperator uses capillary tube for the oil return.
Where do you find a compressor that cheap?changin to Daikin Rotary R22 3/4hp would be fine? its cheap here only $50

i found the compressor in local store. daikin 1hp would cost me arround US$75. its a R22 compressor.

dont use steel wool it just burns.
Better to use copper scrubs and and purge when brazing.
Hi Kayl,
If you purge as normal but use a very high flow rate then it doesn't burn. Steel is very reactive at high temperature, much more than copper, this is why you need to have a much more inert environment which you'll get inside the tube from the higher flow rate of nitrogen/whatever
But yes, if you dont/can't purge at all then steel wool will turn to black burned dust very quickly in brasing like you said
