3 stager build, part two.

I want to be the first one saying that this unit won't be ready before 2010. I will quote this in 2010

I disagree. Even if he has to adjust the capillary tubes, he's only got 30 to 40 hours of work left. This can be done in two weekends. I also agree, drop in the stronger compressor AND adjust the capillary tubes. Just getting the 1st stage HX temps down from a "normal" -30C to -60C will drastically help reduce the strain on the 2nd stage condensing R1150. I however think he should use a hydrocarbon blend of R600/R170 or R600/R290/R1150 instead of R744. This is just personal preference and hatred of R744 dry ice issues though

Ufff....

I stage compressor changed. Gotta few problems with neighbours when I was gettin out gas from that stage

Unit is so small that compressor change is pain in the a$$.

That doesn't mean that your compressor is to small, that shows that your captubes are too long.

If you put in the same unit a stronger compressor, the suction pressure would be lower. It "sucks" more - so lower pressure.

I would shorten the captubes and put in the new compressor. But I doubt that you get the autocascade working. I know how much work it is, trust me, I spend much time in this (and will spend more ) .

If that doesn't work, try a TEV the first stage. I don't remember what others compressors follow, but a TEV is always the best.

Yeap, I know that. I got 240cm of captube for R1150, I should cut it to around 200cm or less, other captubes cut that same, around 30-40cm. A lot of work, but it`s necessesary.

don`t be so pesimistic !

I would like to use R170. If I would have it Or even R23. Dreams. I can try with R600/R290/R1150. No problem. But I need more thermocouples to get good temp readings.

With symphy we wanna working auto-c stage. The last option is just do normal I stage with TEV.

[teyber]

do you live near berkut? doesn't he have a lot of r23?

cheers

Tell us more sounds funny.

[MaSell]

It's not funny at all. I guess neighbours were unhappy, because someone was playing with gases in their building. They could think that it's dangerous, can explode or something.

In my opinion, getting out gas in building where is many flats with ppl, isn't smart.

[Moc]

MaSell, I do not know how he lifes, I didn't think of neighboors in the same house.... my fault, probably your right .

Sorry, I know we are not in 2010. I am just practicing this quote thingy. Won't do it again, I swear.

Stop being a .

[LukeXE]

Got crazy papers for this week.

Changed captubes (I cut them for 40cm, each one). Brazed. A lot of f**k to do that.

Need to get some more propane. I`ll talk to berkut about R23.

[LukeXE]

Next info

On saturday will come to me friend who is doing phase too and we will work on that build together. He will bring some stuff, like vacuum pump, his own torch with oxygen so we will do everything what possible and make it working

We will do a lot of photos

[tiborrr]

Thats great news, Luke! Just please post the pictures as soon as possible and not few weeks later

[Moc]

"The thread pusher was here "

[LukeXE]

Thanks my friends :p

Friend refused to come, because he has short time driving license and he was afraid because of long trip.

SO I`m doing everything by myself. But I got only one arm, because left one is domaged from my jump from university hostel (long story). So I`m on 14 days medical discharge and working a bit slower.

I just have back from rehabilitation from Busko Zdroj (town with a loot of rehabilitations centers), so I`ll try to upload photos tomorrow.

Over-a-month-since-pics-promised bump!

I was thinking about this build the other day actually, as I'll be doing something similar and was hoping to see how it works with this build. Finish it up so I can convince myself it is a good idea

[noobzed]

this project is dead, i want to know, if possible, the feeling of the one who comissioned lukexe ...

[Ozzfest05]

Just what the thread needs more negativity...

[ryba]

Just what the threaded needs more negativity...

After two years you want have any optimism post? Yeah, good joke.

[tiborrr]

Any news on the 3-stage monster?

[clear cmos]

@LukeXE & symphy : any update guys?

[ryba]

Now I would like to hear apology words from ppl who didn't believe me that this unit never will work

[Kizmo]

Three years...

You still owe me some money Luke

[sdumper]

I was wondering what ever happened to this build. It looked really promising.
