Does the cross flow heat exchanger chill the vapor before the tube and shell? This build is epic.

Genius! Is it a custom fabricated spool?

I had a welder weld the 1” tubing on top of the cooling coil lid. Other than that, I just used 2 reducers (6” x 8”), a 36” long 8” spool, and the bottom is a 6” cap with 1.5” reducer. Real simple.

Here’s my dyi… it started out as BVV closed cilium 2inch…now there’s nothing left of it
Then upgraded to killa special 3" 1lb rig. It kept growing and growing…now I can run 11lbs solvent in tiny tank that recover fast as fuck and I rack mounted it bc crc made it extra heavy. I have 3x36 open jacket thanks to awesome member here…maybe one day I’ll get bigger honey pot and 1 tank instead 2 small ones
It’s bvv,oss,qsp(killa) morphed rig built what we could esp the stand
It’s a baby but will let you know what your working w when just tickled right
I and I have everything to go 3/8" on my recovery side I just need to do it
**If something goes wrong with my rig I don’t call someone to fix it, I fix it myself"

Last day of install. I’m trying to set up to record a video when I do my day of consult. They don’t have the right chiller for it, but I can at least show how it functions.

Love the set up, hate the vacuum pump on the floor

Thank you sir. If it makes it any better, the system isn’t operating in the pic. Just like to keep it under vac when. Not in use
I like to keep it on top of that fan when tane starts flowing (should probably get a venturi)

Even when vaccing out I like to have my pump elevated just incase any gas leaked and pooled.

I know someone who ignited a room from shutting his vacuum pump off. I’m a little sensitive on the subject

I just want to say that I had the great pleasure to see this extractor in person, and let me tell you it is 10 times better than what the picture show it. For people like us it is a piece of art and beauty.
Let me tell you, hard pipes are where it’s at.
