    Cryocooler



    Can someone explain the schematic on

    http://www.copeland-corp.com/cp_rf/i...pec_Sheet1.pdf

    of a cryocooler on Helium.

    What are the 3 bottles (HE or 2 oil separators?) on the right side and what is the absorber?

    Someone ever installed these compressors?

    Seems a very easy solution or replacement for an autocascade system.

    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

    Two of the bottles are oil separators, if you follow the oil return line from the compressor it connects with them.

    The third one, the absorber, has me beat. Is it another word/term for a filter/drier ? I'm not sure....does helium do anything funny when compressed and heated ?

    Perhaps the Absorber is defined as to absorb or muffle sound. Ive found them on larger systems for that purpose. Then again I could be wrong.
