    i see where your coming from... but i think the blue/yellow go together wonderfully. if it was not cased i think it would look silly, but idk how to say it... just looks so innovative i guess.

    great work mate

    cheers eric


    hehe did not expect to be able to use the removable electrical control box so soon

    there has been a delay in my plans as the first stage compressor failed to work


    but the two weeks while i waited for the new unit were not wasted as i rewired my shed and upgraded the power supply also managed to brase up the evaporator and cut down my work bench to allow me to push the cascade in the same spot where cascade 4 used to sit

    also fitted the solenoid for the hot gas by-pass to the evap






    the evap next to toms V8-R is a chilly clone i included a shot just to show how big the v8 evap really is

    shot of the hot gas by-pass solenoid this ill allow me to "warm up" the evap to get past any cold boot problems by just pressing a button hot gas will be taken from before the hx and piped straight to the evap face






    gassed the first and second stage also

    as you can see the the panel xt120c with pt100 prob are around 10c out to my fluke with k prob mounted in the same location




    nice to see some frost on the unit @last

    you would not believe how much noise this thing makes i will need ear protection

    the last stage is going to take a bit of time to tune

    i will put the hot by-pass cap tube and the liquid line cap on tomorrow night
    and mount the line set then probably gas the the third stage tuesday

    after that it will be down to load testing and adjusting the cap tube length for the the evap which is the bit that will take the time

    Awesome job, the only thing that I have against it is that it's ment to be "mobile".

    It isn't very mobile when you need three large power sockets wherever you park it. :P

    thanks for the kind words lads and sorry for not keeping this up to date i have had an event here i34 that just about sucked the last of my strength

    update:

    after alot of work i failed to get the unit working on R14 (this is the gas that would give me -130) so to get the unit working for i34 i put in R1150
    which is giving me a solid -107 loaded

    i will stick with this gas for now as i want to bench for a while

    i have a few ideas on how to get the r14 working but it can wait for a month now

    just been setting up a rampage extreme with a 8600 for the weekend so will have some fun on my own for a change
    just had 620fsb out the box on stock air so its looking good

    Insane capacity, it's going to be rather low pressure though I imagine.

    EDIT: Like I said at Benchtec Bazx, your long liquid run is dooming you I think.

    507tev, 23tev, 1150 cap

    this is the setup as of now

    nol i want to mount a modded tev for the r14 on the back of the evap some how so that will take a bit of work

    I don't suggest it, an even larger liquid line? No way. You should be out the bottom of the plate hx, and right to your evap.
    I know you want that quick change box, so maybe move it much closer, or run 1/8" tube or something from plate hx to the box.

    there will be problems with this for sure but i want to try any how

    i will set-up a test evaporator first just for the experiments

    the pipe work will have to change from the hx to the mount box i would also think

    i enjoy this part of cascade building the most, trying different solution
