Показать описание
1) Turn off main power.

2) Turn off compressor.

3) Is your compressor isolated?

4) Contactor
Ohm across
Look for pits

5) Does your control voltage pull in the contactor?
HPS
LPS
OIL SAFETY
Compressor internal overload

6) If there is a head fan ohm out to ground if it's connected to the contactor auxiliary.

Ohm at the contactor
7) Ohmed out the legs of the compressor
8) Ohmed compressor to ground

OHmed at the compressor ( Remove the leads)
9) Ohm out the legs of the compressor
10) Ohm compressor to ground
11) Are connections tight ?

12) Is the compressor filled with oil if so empty it.

13) Isolate the compressor suction and take the suction side pressure.
- Is it liquid pressure?
-See if the suction pressure rises in the compressor
-The goal should be to stay at suction -pressure when isolated.

14) Does there appear to be flood back?

15) Are any of the circuits on the suction side of the system hot or are any of the compressors suction side hot.

16) Before starting make sure there's oil at least enough to lubricate the compressor.

17) Before starting get compressor information.

18) Careful turn on compressor
DO NOT STAND IN FRONT OR NEAR COMPRESSOR OR COMPRESSOR CONTACTOR.

19) How does the compressor sound

20) Take an amp draw when the compressor is running
- Compare to specs.

21) Is the discharge hot and the suction cold.

22) Does it hold a compressor efficiency test

for the next steps !!!!¡
Only if you have cause do the following!
Do not needlessly open up a compressor!

23) Take of the head and look at the reeds.

24) See if the piston moves freely.

25) Look for signs of damage
Black Goop
Pieces of steel
Scored piston wall.

Before your take the valve plates and heads off a compressor, make sure you got new gaskets available.

Have you ever worked on an enviroguard system? If so, could you make a video explaining this style of system? Thanks for making these videos, they've helped me out in my transition from installer to service. You're the man

Your videos are amazing dude. Keep up the great work! If you want to solve handling the camera I suggest using a go pro or something. There's also other cameras that you can hang off you neck like a necklace that i've seen. That way you don't have to mess around with holding the camera anymore

Can you do a step by step video on testing high pressure low pressure and oil change..that’s would be awesome if you could!

I’m entering the field soon I’m so glad I’m seeing these videos. I’m not sure how I can utilize it to my advantage in an interview though to land the job. Does anyone have any tips on getting hired for supermarket refrigeration?

I have no experience, I just read my 1600 page 9th edition Refrigeration Air Condition Technology textbook all day

Yeah we do compressor efficiency tests on york recips. We use it to test/calibrate capacity control also
