So the Evap sits inside the condenser ?

I have not taken one os these things apart yet so I have no clue.

I have been thinking about looking around for one of these to use as a cold air source to blow on a Air Cooler setup.

Chew* picked up one of these units the other day at some place he was at,
it had scratches on it so the customer refused it and APC didnt want to ship it back so he got it free.
Its used in server rooms to cool the rooms and racks. Its a freaking cold monster that could chill your house down.
Its a Cascade Air Conditioner LOL

What I put in the bucket I call the evap. I may be wrong. Butt if it were an SS that is were the evap would be which goes on the cpu. The condenser is what hangs outside the house on an A/C unit. I call it a heat exchanger cause the fans blowing off the heat from the loop from the cpu. The heat has to go some where rite?
Ill change the size of my pics I have them hosted at photobucket. All comes up normal on my screen but Im at 1900x1200 resolution.

Here is a good guide to making a phase change. Ive been studying it a lot. I think I may tackle the project.

Thanks

I have seen plenty of guides on Phase Change units, plus have several of my own. I am just unsure of what the Evap on a house AC unit looks like.
