Duda plate chiller mounting

[RatDoc]

Hey guys so I just got a dudadiesel plate chiller with mounting studs and trying to see how you guys mounted it, my stand is made of of angle iron and the mounting studs seem to be roughly 1/4 female thread.

My DD 30-long PC has male threaded M8-1.25 studs.

fwiw, I bolted mine through a swinging panel with the wort input at the bottom and cold water input at the top. Here's a pic from the build...

Cheers!

Looks good! Yeah mine came with female threads but maybe I can just find like a threaded nipple and screw those in and mount it with washers and wingnuts then

Not sure if you've found a solution yet, but I found this aluminum bracket and drilled holes in it.

If you are still in need of a mounting solution, I probably have an extra bracket that I could send you.

I just drilled a couple holes through the angle iron on my stand! Thanks guys!

It's metric! Which reminds me on this:

I now have an elbow coming off the chiller, then a nipple, then a T, as to attach the QD and thermo. Reason I had to do this opposed to the original setup (pictured) because I added QDs for my garden hose, so now its a sinch to hook up and disconnect my water hoses from the chiller. In the original setup, the thermo was in the way, so I had to adjust.

Can you post a picture? I was unaware that duda had such a system.

The female studs are on the 12a and 14a models. They are M5-0.8
