RunTek Pride -100.6C

[runmc]

My cascade is finally up and running. It has taken me forever, but the time spent was well worth it.
I received a bottle of Chilly1s special blend yestarday. After charging I fired it up. Pressure gauges were going one way and temp probes were going another. What a nightmare, I was so lost. At this point there was only one thing to do. I pulled out my trusty T.E.C.H. Method Troubleshooting book by Gary Lloyd. It is an awesome book. I was damn glad I had it. I've already spent hundreds of dollars on phone calls to Chilly1 the past couple of months, so I decided not to bother him for a change. It is a true troubleshooters book. Thanks Gary, your book came in very handy. Everyone who plans on building any type of Vapor compression system would be wise to purchase one of Gary's books along with the basic refrigeration c-d.

My cascade has a couple of bugs, but I suppose that is normal. I am so happy with it I could spit.

I know I can make it into the -100C club with no problem. I hope. I did see -99c but wasn't quick enough on the camera.

Much thanks to "CHILLY1" for everything on this project. It is his design with slight modifications by Runtek.

The evaporator was made by Chilly1 and Fugger. Thanks guys.

Thanks go to pc-ice for donating extra parts he had.

And as always Mark Willet (Herefishy) was there to help when I needed it. He has stuck by Team Puss from day one. Austin Industrial Refrigeration Rulzes. I am an honorary employee of Marks company. Thanks to Mark I am able to buy parts here in Texas. Texas has strict laws about enviormental protection
