Four Steps to Refrigeration Compressor Maintenance

Four Steps to Refrigeration Compressor Maintenance

Summer is coming, and the long-standing air conditioner will come in handy again! In recent years, consumers have become more and more experienced in the use of air conditioners, and they have gradually paid attention to the usual maintenance and maintenance of air conditioners, and regular cleaning, which can prevent air conditioning diseases and achieve the purpose of saving electricity. So, as the "heart" of air conditioners, should compressors be protected? Everyone knows that the compressor is the core of the air conditioner and the most expensive component in the air conditioner. According to relevant professionals, the compressor has the function of compressing and driving the refrigerant to circulate to achieve the effect of cooling or heating. Therefore, the working efficiency of the compressor is directly related to the cooling and heating effect of the air conditioner, and the protection of the compressor should be paid attention to in the use of the air conditioner.

　　 The following are a few basic methods to protect the compressor introduced by professionals to keep your air conditioner away from "heart" disease!

　　1, 3 minutes switch interval to prevent "heart" colic

　　 Some consumers like to turn on and off the air conditioner frequently. When the temperature is low, the air conditioner is turned off immediately, and then turned on again when it is hot. The engineer suggested that the air conditioner should be controlled by itself. According to the set program, the compressor can get better working efficiency. At the same time, the air conditioner should be turned on again after 3 minutes due to a sudden power failure or artificial shutdown. Otherwise, some air conditioners without a time delay device may burn the fuse or even the compressor motor due to excessive starting current.

　　2, turn on once a month to prevent "heart" infarction

　　Professionals suggest that even in the season when the air conditioner is not used, it is best to develop the habit of turning it on at least once a month. Because the compressor is a kind of precision equipment, it contains lubricating oil to ensure the reliable operation of the compressor. However, if the air conditioner is not used for a long time, the lubricating oil in the compressor may be condensed. After a long period of use, the compressor may jam and cause damage to the compressor.

　　3. Clean the heat sink regularly to prevent "heart" myositis

　　 When the air conditioner is used, dust in the air will block the gap in the heat sink, causing poor heat dissipation, resulting in an increase in condenser pressure, which will increase the current of the compressor motor and increase the power consumption of the air conditioner. Long-term operation with high power consumption will damage the working life of the compressor. Therefore, the engineer recommends that consumers should clean the heat sink regularly. The canned detergent can be sprayed from the top to the bottom at a distance of 4-6 cm from the discrete heat. Generally, it is best to clean and disinfect once a month when the air conditioner is frequently used in summer. The effect is better. .

　　4. Pay attention to the installation of the awning to prevent the "heart" from overheating

　　The compressor is installed in the outside machine. Professionals suggest that if the outside machine is often exposed to the sun, it is best to install an awning to create a better working environment for the compressor. And if the position of the outdoor unit is good, it is not necessary, because the outdoor unit has been designed with functions such as waterproof, acid and rust prevention. When installing the awning, consumers must pay attention to the size of the awning, because too small an awning will affect the heat exchange of the air conditioner. At the same time, the distance between the awning and the outer unit of the air conditioner must be determined according to the manual.
