Jinu117 SS Worklog (vapoli, UFO, etc)

[jinu117]

**UPDATE** I've changed name of the thread so I don't clutter forum and decided to put all my SS work here of same nature, now it includes V2000, UFO, and what not :P **/UPDATE**

Started building one for my customer. Figured it is about time I post and flaunt my build since I haven't done it for a while lol.
New condensers we got for this use (yes chilly and I am using same one right now... good stuff so far).
No need for desuperheater really. Leak testing ATM.




Evap... been leak tested for 30+ hours 175psi.



Love the new condenser... so clean. The loop there is really for vibration dampening than anything else.



The codenser has nut riveted places for Fans. I think Reggie does same right now. just screw in 6/32 and it's all set



Just another side in case someone want to look at... nothing special really.

Well leak testing whole thing till tomorrow and will load test probably 48 hours later or so with triple evac, etc.

As always your attention to details pays off.... Very nice jin

[Fhqwhgads6680]

[Alex08]

you must teach me your ways jin

[eBoy0]

Beautiful lapping buddy, very clean build.

[ShoNuff]

Nice...very nice work! I wa....no must resist....

It's times like this that I wish money really did grow on trees.

[SexyMF]

Great work. Doesn't the filter need to be on a downward angle? (It may just be the picture)

[boardy]

Very nice build there, condensor looks awsome. Where's it from?

Boardy

[Jack]

what are the dimensions of that condensor?

[jinu117]

Condenser is custom designed for our use (chilly1 and me). We ordered 100 of it for first run to see how well it does. It is custom designed condenser. Anyways, here is the completed unit. Customer is coming in tomorrow to pick up the unit. Since he is new at this game we might install system here.
Here is quick outside looks...



it's using optional EX-34 hdd mounting kit instead of EX-23 orginally supplied as well as additional dvd cover... all lian-li.

[jinu117]

Something unusual eh? Basically psu plugs into this as well as power connector is typical pc connector for the unit. This way, froster will force shutting down psu if things goes really bad.



Innards.


from the other end.


well, quick idling temp... Froster reads about 4c off on this unit... each froster seems tad different unfortunately... I would love manual pot to adjust temp... hint hint.



Guess frost shot... well, this wasn't much frost since I basically took pic as soon as unit hit it's idling temp

[Alex08]

so so clean!

[Absolute_0]

Cool Jin, how cold does she get?

[LukeXE]

Great work jinu117

[Golden_Eagle]

I will add a setting on the software so u can adjust the Temp Offset.

btw good lookin unit!

[runmc]

Sharp looking unit jin

[njkid32]

Looks great Jin!!

[kcnyc]

If the evap wasn't sticking out, no one would ever know that there was a Vapo in that Lian Li case - unless he/she picks it up. Damn fine job Jin. Clean, neat, concealed.......speechless......

[Weee]

I think you should change your name to JinV2000 instead of Jinu117

great job!

[Ssilencer]

Or maybe lian-Jin

[jinu117]

I haven't quite figured out the name yet. This seems to be closest to what future will hold for me in various aspect. Since the very first one, it has been a long journey.
Condenser is new condenser back from january time frame which has rifled tubing having most efficiency it can have with current technology. I reckon about 8 units has shipped with this condenser to this date.
Case is redesigned case that started last year and I believe I had prototype in hand right before I got unconcious... It is modular and front panel was made of aluminum while structural part was made of heavy gauge sheetmetal to handle the transportation. Front being aluminum was basically an idea that occured to me as I could easily change design on my mill for some custom jobs. Maybe it would be better to leave it as steel to reduce cost since my mill can handle that too.
Controller has been changed out due to reliability issues in the middle of it.
Compressor dates a little further back and has been in use for some time but never to it's full potential till now.
Evaporator is the new Cryo which seems to really bring up the hidden potential of this compressor.
Other than my paintjob (kind of hard to justify single piece powder coat job) which is probably worst part of system (I KNOW IT IS)... I think it came out rather nicely
There are few more things that are in pipeline to materialize for better usability and performance obviously... one of them is mounting kits which has been reworked on many times and tested on my last customer. It will have few more modification as time progress on to make it even more suitable and easier to use.
Here are some pics





noticed something? Yes... the moisture condensating around evap and flowing into condenser with it sucking air... I haven't seen this too often in S. California on single stage really... typically only during cascade runs. Granted, humidity was kind of high at 55% but still I am really liking it
It was pleasant surprise to look at frost pattern appearing very fast in evap...
Tomorrow, while working on 2 other systems, I will repaint the front aluminum panel (okay... I did drop it from about 6ft and paint just cracked... -0-) and get it maybe waxed up

PS) Front panel should have dark grey plexi to for controller part to make it look clean but since I have to repaint it... it will have to wait.

I would love to have one like that myself very nice work.

[Hell-Fire]

To often we begin to take for granted when people do great work. We expect someone's work to be awesome, without taking into consideration that they actually have to sit down and do the work.

Two thumbs way up man: :thumbsup::thumbsup:

At the risk of contradicting myself, nice work as always Jin.

[Skinny13]

OMG!!! well done!
