  • C02 System

    We made the jump last week to an Industrial Level C02 system.
    The install was done by Rocky Mountain Air systems. Chuck Graves was the install Foreman and we are very pleased with the job.
    Its 100x better than the former system provider. I can recommend this Outfit for quality workmanship and service.
    While this system uses strictly resistance heat elements for the Vaporizer and Pressure Builder stages, it would be fairly easy to Engineer in the use of a Solar Hot water collector HX along with some passive measures in parallel for energy savings.

    Looks great, Star!

    Is that a pressurized system, a Dewar, or a hybrid?

    We look into using pressurized storage on a large scale, but no CO2 pumper trucks in our area.

      Timm, I 'm not fully sure the exact type they call this one. It is a double wall vessel that has vacumn between.
      The Vaporizer is a 6 KW electric resistance heat rig. 2 HX loops exit the vaporizer. One to the plant and one goes back in the tank on what is called a Pressure Builder.
      The Vaporizer being what I have paid the most attention to as its pretty HVACR related in the way it works. Also available with SCR controls which we missed out on due to an error.
      There is a setpoint controller that will keep the vaporizer in a certain temperature range.
      It has a Solar powered Telemetry system. I will have to study it a bit more to get the full grasp. Things happen fast around here....
