    What compressor?

    Hi all, i'm new to these forums, and i hope some of you are able to help answer some questions i have...

    I have made a couple of R134a systems, all using 1/8hp - average compressors, however, i now want to go a lot further!!

    I am aiming for the magical 'optimum' running temperature of -178°C (or near to)

    some potential gasses..

    Gas Boiling point
    R-14 (-150°C @ 350psi)
    R-50 (-162°C @ 450psi)
    R-740 (-120°C @ 300psi) argon

    However, i haven't a clue where to start off, by finding a compressor capable of handling these temperatures and pressures without forking out thousands of pounds on a cryogenic system
    can anyone please help?
    James
