Trying to minimize it the service on a 61 foot Hatteras motoryacht air conditioning system. We have installed an electrosea System that helps with marine growth inside the air conditioning systems. But we wanted to minimize the salt water as well as other stuff, running through the boat and the units. So we have devised a system to create a closed loop system consisting of water glycol, running through the entire boat, and being cooled by a heat exchanger. This video is the test platform to prove our concept, and to work out any bugs that we encounter trying to maximize the efficiency of the system. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Yes, that’s a great point. I actually did that on the farthest run inside about which line would go where to accommodate that thought process. Dan seems to be working and this week will be putting on the air scrubber so I think that will alleviate the rest of the problems, but so far the system seems to be working well for the last four or five days which is great. Thanks so much for watching and giving me your input, this was a tough one for some reason
If you didn’t finish the close loop heat exchanger job. You might put a ball valve and all the returns so you can choke down to gallons per minute and each system and help your more pressure the bigger ones.
Great idea. And yes we are going to do that. And we are increasing the hose size to 1.25” to gain more flow.
Do you think there should be an hand valve on each line off the manifold with a pressure gage. Flow goes to the path of least resistance, so its harder on the longer runs and also elevations change. That way each run could be trimmed to the desired pressure needed.
I think i responded to you above. Thanks for the comment
GREAT VIDEO! Who made that heat exchanger please?
Xylem. I can get you the specs. I bought it off of McMaster Carr website.
