A multi-evaporator cooling system (200) includes a compressor circuit (204) that generates multiple levels of evaporating pressures, the circuit (204) comprising at least one compressor (220, 222, 224) configured to compress a refrigerant to a first pressure, a heat exchanger (202) configured to receive the compressed refrigerant from the at least one compressor (220, 222, 224) and cool the compressed refrigerant, a first evaporator circuit (206) configured to receive the compressed refrigerant from the heat exchanger (202), expand the compressed refrigerant to a second pressure that is lower than the first pressure, and return the refrigerant to the compressor circuit (204), and a second evaporator circuit (208) configured to receive the compressed refrigerant from the heat exchanger (202), expand the compressed refrigerant to a third pressure that is lower than the second pressure, and return the refrigerant to the compressor circuit (204).
