I think the Cooler Drain line is Blocked!
Hi Guys.
Check out the attached Photo, May I add the Blanking plate hanging of the end is Stainless Steel.
Which originally sat behind It's Locking Ring pictured on the end of the pipe. That's a 65mm diameter pipe by the Way!
It just shows the raw power of expanding Ice.

RJT fitting? That would take some pressure to deform!
Mostly found in Oxfordshire, UK :)

Re: I think the Cooler Drain line is Blocked!
From the phase change diagram you are probably looking at around 2 K Bar of pressure at -20 Deg C
or over 100 MPa
An RJT fitting is rated to 25 Bar, poor thing did not stand a chance!I love the smell of Ammonia in the morning!
