Mora GC - German radiator?

[Lothar2002]

Was looking for a radiator for my new watercooled system. I found a couple of radiators from a company called MORA.

Does anybody know if this line of radiators is available from a US distributor? They seem to be of very high quality construction. The top of the line Mora GC is ca 405 x 420 x 43 mm and made of copper. It can be used without additional fan.



Here are some links to german sites:

I sure would like that radiator, but I am put off by the hassle of ordering from a german site (wire transfer, shipping).

Any feedback is welcome.

I would expect a huge pressure drop, from the tiny pipe in this single pass radiator. It certainly wouldn't be my first choice. Otherwise I like the fin density.

405 * 420 * 43 mm (~16" * 16" * 1 5/8") isn't exactly small: where would you fit that?

I'd call that a 16 pass radiator myself.

Lytron makes radiators similar to that one.

lol, might be even more passes than that...seems to make several loops (look on the side).

but anyhow...

I think the pipe "Y's" at the inlet and outlet giving two parallel flow channels that travel up and down the length of the radiator 16 times. I've got a Lytron 6320 that is setup similar to this.

One could cut the tubes in two locations and set it up so that there are four parallel channels that travel up and down the length of the radiator 8 times. This would reduce the flow resistance by approximately a factor of four.
