Hello,
Where to start?? I bought a DimasTech rotary phase change. I am having problems with it... First when I got it I took one side panel off to clean out the packaging popcorn that was in it. I tried starting it and the evaporator head was not getting cold, the compressor was getting hot. After no more than 5 minutes I shut it off cause nothing changed. Then I heard that I should let it sit for 24hr because it was just shipped or maybe that the refrigerant has leaked out. So I waited till noon today and took the other side panel off that I had not taken off yet and found this
That looks like a major problem to me! The refrigerant has most likely leaked out lol
So I'm asking what I can do about this? I might have damaged the compressor by trying to run it like this right?
Is that radiator repairable or would it need to be replaced? If it needs to be replaced then would this one work, it was sent WITH the SS and I couldn't understand why.
It is G1/4 threaded. And 180.4 might be the same size as the on in the SS
The only other thing is that maybe it is supposed to be like that for some reason.
Those questions may not be able to be answered with just those pictures I know. I just want a little insight before I bring it in somewhere for repairs.
