Hi
One day Matiz (member of Team Poland) ask me about cheap cascade . His needs was : quite small dimensions, nice price, and power, power, power . Cascade isn't monster but it's very small and quite powerfull in mine opinion. Stainless base is extras . Devil later named the cascade as a "BBP cascade" (BBP = build by piotres) .
Specs :
compressors: Daikin on 1st stage (7000 BTU) and Toshiba PG165-X1C on 2nd stage (10000 BTU)
evap: steeper by piotres
XV: captube 0.8 mm on both stages
HX: around 250 cm of 12mm OD cooper pipe with 5*2.3mm captubes inside
condenser: 2 row, alu-cu, cooled by 2 x 120mm/230 V fans
refrigerant : R507/R1150
oilseparator : Shine Year
safety : RANCO cut-off
case : Stainless backplate, around 30 x 25 cm
others: LCD HX out temperature display
First on 1st stage was Toshiba PG160, but later due to some problems I've swaped it for Daikin. Suction line has been also changed to another during building (longer one) .
HX is Ricky's style .
That's only first run, no load.
No load temperatures - second thermo is HX out.
215W loaded = around -97*C, on 115W = around -102*
