Extend T500 with SPP packing

Post by Franck S »

Hello,

This is not subject about this: I would like to have your advice/review regarding this upgrade 1:
  • T500 boiler
  • bulkhead adapter
  • 2" Filter plate like this one: https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/He90a625d270 ... .jpg_.webp. I will probably drill a 10mm 3/8" hole to let the liquid comes down.
  • A SPP support, kind of filter, 10mm thick (not a scrubber) [url]https://sprezynkipryzmatyczne.pl/83-lar ... 50.jpg[url]
  • 2" 500 mm tube packed with SPP + some copper SPP at the top
  • SPP packing stops around here
  • a sight glass (where I could see top of the spp section, to check if flooding occurs)
  • 2" Filter plate like this. I will probably drill a 10mm 3/8" hole to let the liquid comes down
  • bulkhead adapter
  • The t500 with its standard still spirit SS scrubber

Could it cause problem to have two section of different packing type ?
Could it cause problem to have a hole/empty space with no packing in the column?



Upgrade 2: basically the same as upgrade 1 but in the T500 only keep 150mm (6") of the packing at the top near the the condenser (copper + SS scrubber) and then, with no gap/isolation directly SPP to reach 1m:
  • T500 boiler
  • bulkhead adapter
  • 2" Filter plate like this one: I will probably drill a 10mm 3/8" hole to let the liquid comes down.
  • A SPP support, kind of filter, 10mm thick (not a scrubber) [url]https://sprezynkipryzmatyczne.pl/83-lar ... 50.jpg[url]
  • 2" 500 mm tube packed with SPP
  • bulkhead adapter (filled with SPP)
  • The t500 with its standard SS scrubber & SPP packing
Which setup is better ?

Thanks in advance for your help!
