Small & Quiet 24/7 chilly .

[Athens[2004]]

Hi all .

Last days i decided to build a small chilly for 24/7 use . Quiet Easy to use and compact , was the target .

Lets starts from the case .

4 pieces [67X27cm] and another 2 smaller [27X27] of plexiglass . Cutted 3X holes for 12cm fans [2in and one for exhaust] , and mounted whells [from my cm stacker ] .



The floor of the case dressed with 1cm silver color insulation to avoid the noises of waterpump and compressor .



another one



The main rig .

Compressor 1/6 from my old home fridge .
condeser and heatex. comes from Unseen
water pump [eheim1250] & water block [silverpro cyclone evo ] from my previous watercool setup



The system ready and tested



A quick test with laser thermometer .

And ,,, thats it . around here hits the wall , [with r509 ] / .

With litle fine tune on insulation of tubing maybe goes -25 [hard but maybe ] [hope dies last ]

Notice the 3 fans [intake compressor - intake condeser and another one behind of condesser ] are cooler master noisless , and the system is xtremely quiet as i planed to built it . , [the exhaust 12cm fan is always off , becouse the air goes out from it self,,, ]
Thanks alot Unseen for your help mate ,

i Think for my my first try is not bad .

And some more pics .

Nice stuff .

But how will it handle your cpu power?

[Athens[2004]]

Thanx
winchester 3.0+@2.75 1.55 vcore , and the dfi nf4 reports 5c idle , 12 load , and with the laser thermometer on the block -5 ~ 0

wow thats some nice work. was that case easy to build ? and why no gpu block?

[saratoga]

Whats the condenser from?

[DocGolem]

Looking really nice Athens.

Is the res a copper coil inside a pipe? What kind of pipe?

[Athens[2004]]

thnx guys .

Condesser shiped from Unseen , the cost is around 30 euro ~ good choise for a compact phase change
The case was easy 2 built , but need attention in the holes and the attachment of the iron angles . Good quality plexiglass required also 2 handle the weight of chiller/ .

Gpu block soon ,

I don't see a lot in dark photos, can you shot a few of better photos?

First thing I did notice, is filter, you did it wrongly, filter's outlet have to be directed
to Earth's core..

@tonic the hx is similar to this http://xtremesystems.org/forums/show...6&postcount=14

[cupra]

that is very nice case and system Athens, well done

love the idea but i think that the dust can be a problem here

[Athens[2004]]

Thnx mate

Very nice! Neat and peforms well! You make it look simple as well!

I`d be tempted to try that myself, but the gas charging part and the welding would mess me up. Can you please give a link for the compressor? Is there any other way of attaching the HX without welding it on?

How loud is the 1/6HP compressor? What is it equivalent too?

How loud is the 1/6HP compressor? What is it equivalent too?

it depents off the manufacturer , mine is totaly quiet , it does litle noise for 1 minute when it starts and after that minute works totaly silence.

Looks kickass, I just did a project similar minus the chiller:

I got a 5400btu air conditioner sitting ready to be broken up... its a 1/6th or 1/5th hp compressor. Wish i had planne don using one

[metro.cl]

what about load temps??

[Thrilla]

Whoa, looks schweet!

[fhpchris]

Really nice! I like the plexiglass case!

What did you use to cut all of it?

[Athens[2004]]

metro.cl @ i switched to single stage and i dont running it any more [i have it here sitting and waiting for some 6800gs sli powa ] , but with my old good winnie i had 0c[idle] 15c[load]~ from dfi ite smart guardian at 2.95ghz~ 1.5vcore~ [block temps -10c[idle] 0c[load]

fhpchris @ i took the pieces precuted from a glass store . I only make the holes for fans - cables - tubes , and of course connect the pieces each other. [my excellent English going better and better ]
