Have you ever seen the guys open an ice cream freezer and throw the curtain strips back over something "To let it warm up a little in there before I go in to work" ?
Ya gotta love the island...

Just back from dinner.

Firstly, it is a pumpdown system.

I know that the OPS tripping is not the problem, it is a symptom. The last compressor broke a connecting rod after 8-9 years in service....

I have a vexing problem with a freezer after compressor changeout.(Yes, we did change the contactor)

We just replaced a Copeland 2DL3040ETFC with a 2DL3F20KETFC

Subsequent follow-up yesterday...

Just wondering if an opinion has been formed yet on the Digimon's.
Currently in the market for something like this.

If I gotta have water and a rag handy anyway, I might as well just use them. :)
It's far less expensive, and no more difficult.

It was probably intended to prevent unscrupulous contractors from taking a shortcut and labeling systems with a dumpable refrigerant sticker, and then blowing off a refrigerant charge that they...

My company has been approached about installing some new chillers for a customer who will be supplying the equipment themselves. Replacement will be over 2-3 years (as budget allows) so these modular...

I agree, the Keep-Rite calc-rite is virtually identically to the Trenton calcu-load,
EXCEPT calc-rite provides more precision in infiltration calculations due to being able to specify curtain...

From what I gather in their explanation, there is a reduction in the pressure at the evaporator outlet due to the ejector acting like a venturi. It looks like the evaporator is flooded with liquid...

Defrost termination is there to end a defrost early if the coil is clear of ice, this ensures system is operating at optimum, and not in defrost any longer than necessary. Defrost termination is not...

I came across info on an interesting bit of technology from Japan...

It's a Fluke 87V for me!

I know about City Compressor and these guys:

I had never heard of American Hermetics

Sounds like Capt. Tripps to me!

Hope you feel better soon.

Yes, I attended BCC. I worked at FlaTech (FIT).
They had 2 fires IIRC about 9-10 months ago.
I lived in the area of Lake Washington and Wickham.
Back when life was easy, and someone else paid the...

Hey Icemeister,
This is alot off-topic, but since I started the thread, AND my initial question has been answered, here goes.
I was curious if you knew how Wickham Park is looking after the...

Thank you, I would expect both cobwebs and dust on a catalog that old. :)

I was just graduating high school in 1987. :eek:

These are definately not a medium profile blower.

I requested the info from Larkin weeks ago, via e-mail, and haven't heard back from them yet.

I have searched the heatcraft / larkin site for the info I need, and I can't find the application / capacity info on these two models.

ELT4-569-4
ELT4-446-4

Any help offered would be much...

Then leave it in the bedroom! ;)

Most of the serious hurricane damage is due to poor construction techniques. After hurricane Andrew, Miami/Dade county wised up and implemented more stringent building codes. Homes here are generally...

currently 75 degrees. I think I'd rather deal with hurricanes than winter!

Carrier does love a good name:
r-500 Carrene
r-410a Puron

WHOA!!!!! :eek:
I have one customer who still has some r-502 in use. Our local wholesalers have just stopped selling it. I found and bought the last 2 jugs that I could find. $239 per 30 lb. jug. I...

I found this link while searching for something else:

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4487707.html

It was granted a patent, but I don't think I'd try it.

Just curious what 30-lb of r-502 is selling for in the US now?
Is it more expensive than r-404a?

Now that's music!

Been told by an architect that I must think that I am 'God's gift to air-conditioning', during a meeting arranged by the homeowner.
He then pushed the owner to contract the company where his...

Thanks, I thnk I have it solved with the updated version. It seems to be working without issues now.

I have been told this by my dad. His explanation seems to be sensible. While it is correct that the pumps are bi-directional, they accomplish this by means of a sliding ball to allow for both...

I was shocked to see that it had been so long since my last visit.
Happy New Year.


I have been trying to input box spec's into Calcu-Load2000, and have come up against the following problem....

I don't know about other 'abroad' places, but we have several racks (hussman and tyler) with CPC controllers. All are RMCC's, no Einsteins.
AND
I think it's more like...

I am outside the US, and sometimes receive the EX model for installation. I have seen too many failures as of late, to believe that it is coincidental. We have recently recorded failures on a 1 week...

One Australian dollar = about seventy five cents American.

The contacts were never really a problem. The main problem is with the gearmotor that drives the clock mechanism. They have become unreliable. To the point of being far more than coincidental...

OOPS! I reread the first post. My revised name would be:
Duke Winchester

Still sounds like a winner to me.

'Jack Hammer' sounds like a pretty good choice to me! LOL

yes, you need to check your stash everyday.

The 8145-20ex is an export only model, it is basically a relabeled 8145-20. Functionally, they are identical.
Paragon's quality has been going downhill in the past few years. The new timers don't...

OK OK OK! so maybe it's a bit callous. Besides, it's unlikely that they were all Frenchman!

The plane was an Air France Flight.
If you controlled life and death, would you want 290 Frenchmen in Heaven? I didn't think so!
I'll betcha that the vote was seconded from somewhere south of...

I still like the aquasnaps in general, but I wish that they would provide proper phase monitoring. I lost a compressor when one phase was lost.

Did I say 'dain bramage' in that last post? What I meant to say was 'DAIN BRAMAGE'

S-S-S-So, Wh- wh- wh-What ah- ah- are you-you-you sayin' exac- exac- exac- exactly? Huh? There's no dain bramage here! Just don't mess with my tin-foil tin-foil tin-foil hat. What were we ...

I've got an old cast aluminum Portable Kitchen grill made in Little Rock that I wouldn't trade for anything else.

depends on what parts you need. valve-plates, gasket sets, and oil pumps should be readily available. internal bearings are pressed-in, and then machined true (not DIY). crankshaft journals, cylinder...

I turn in one direction only, if possible.
My preffered method is to turn so that the rotation of the cutting wheel keeps it's center pivot screw tight.

I have used the spectronics dyes before and have only one major problem with their use. They can cause problems when using an acid test kit.

I do. A Fluke 87V, to be precise. Not a requirement, but still nice. I do also carry an analog meter, because I find it easier to trace control circuit chatter with a needle.
