A winery I was asked, nicely, to make a refrigeration unit.
To keep the wine at 14°C.
Inside unit is stainless steel and copper pipes.
Condensing unit is home made.
Today It was 41°C and head pressure was only 270 psi.
Enjoy the pictures.

Hi Chemi
Good to put a face to the voice,you look younger than I expected,please tell me a highly technical man like yourself did not put the reflective foil on your window.Do you often use man europe. :D
Regards Bernard
Nice work chemi , the pic idea is great ..... as well as the dog
Hi Bernard.
Actually I put the foil but I did it while driving ;)
There is a new water chiller coming in this morning, I will post some pictures.
Take a camera to work, there are a lot of things people would like to see.
Chemi :)
Just came in this morning, fresh from the box.
Will be installed in the next few weeks.
Chemi :)
Hi Chemi
Next time you post a picture can you airbrush the palm trees and blue sky out so that all of us in the UK can relate to the main theme of the photo :D
Got home tonight and the central heating is back on :(
Roll on Christmas :)
Hi chemi its a beast can we have some internal pics please and what country is the manufacture from.
Best regards bernard
Hi Bernard,

May sound a stupid question, but why is it that when you go abroad, a.c systems and refrigeration systems have white tape around armaflex. Is it for heat deflection?
Or for something else?
Armaflex has a white coating to use on the insulation when intalled outside. The white covering helps to protect the insulation from ultraviolet light (UV llight spectrum). UV rays can cause the insulation to turn brittle due to the loss of the elastomers in the insulation.
The insulation will look like it has dried up after a short exposure time.
The white also helps to reflect the heat off of the pipe.
For most applications Armaflex seems to work OK. However, I would not recommend it's use on ammonia refrigeration systems. It does not seem to last very long (indoors or outdoors).
Not exactly.
The white coat is PVC.
I never use it. Instead, I use white spacial paint that was originally made for sealing and whitening roofs,
Great stuff, guaranties for 12 years.
I have to take some pictures of a blast chiller I have finished recently, all the outdoor pipes are painted with the stuff.
Chemi:)
Hi Chemi,
The high pressure is 1.9MPa at the 41C, what is the refrigerant. Cndensing unit is home made by yourself? Al fin and copper tube ?what brand compressor? how about the controller(compressor on/off or stepless according to the indoor room temp)?
hope share more -:)

Hi guys,
A quick look at an instalasion of four Hysave pumps.
They do a nice job educing head pressur.
Chemi:)
Nice work Chemi :)
Hi Chemi
Is there a reason why the pipes are painted Green?
Hi Frank'
All the liquid lines in this plant was in green.
I was asked to paint it in the same colour.
As far as I'm concern, it could have been purple.
Chemi:)
Hi Chemi
Hope it was a good shade of green :D :D
Looks like our local council green :)
HiFrank,
Aren't all the counsils in the uk green from some reason?
Chemi:)
I did my apprenticeship at what was called back then A.W.R.E
full title M.O.D(P.E)A.W.R.E.
but they dropped the 'r' and are now -
http://www.awe.co.uk/
An absolutely fantastic place real real cutting edge stuff.
The only cray computer outside america the most powerful laser in the world, nukes, plastic explosives,ballistic testing the best pathology lab in the country and -in my day- everything was 'cost+'
money poured in/out like a gentle never ending stream ;-)
life was so cushy some apprentices were qualifying and sitting down waiting for retirement..
however everything was painted green there too -it was done after research showed green was the most passive colour and pleasing to the eye .
cheers

Didn't you sign the Official Secrets Act?

I don't think telling the world that awre was painted green internally back in the late 70's is likely to get Mi5/6 knocking on my door ;-)
cheers

Green is indeed a "soothing" colour.
It cools the eye..........and relaxes the mind
Proven scientific fact
Dont you dare ask me who the scientest was......
Just come chill out in my new conservatory and we can look into my green garden!!!
Drinking lemonade!!!
:D
to be really relaxed shouldn't that be 'green' tea?
cheers
richar
Youve been hanging out in Far East too long Richard!!
But indeed, you brought the secret back
Hi guys,
Ablast chiller that was built a month ago, just remembered to take the camera today.
Chemi:)
I like the Bitzer Chemi.
What's in the pots for Christ sake on the last picture?
It seems like something 'already eaten'
Hi Peter.
Bitzer rules!!
The idiots have decided to cool food in these pots instead of the trays.
Chemi:)
Im surprised they get liquid? Are the receivers on the roof with top outlet?
Calvin
Yep...on the roof with top outlet, almost exactly the same as we install.Quote:

Its working just fine since it was installed.
You must have stood on your hands when you have been watching it Peter, Christmas alcohol is still on high levels in your blood?:D
Chemi:)
Chemi,
Long time since we last met. How are you? Still pumping? Have you seen any improvements?
Happy Newyear Chemi.
Think you haven't noticed the smileys after my add and/or didn't understand or relaised why I posted them.
It's not the first time a see a Bitzer and the liquid receivers are the same we're using.
Strange receivers, liquid coming out on the top of it :confused: :confused: :D
Thanks for sharing chemi, keep it up.
