Causes and troubleshooting knowledge of reefer units

Feb 25,2022View: 69

1. The compressor does not work

Cause Analysis:

①Incorrect wiring ②Low voltage ③Open circuit of the restrictor ④High exhaust pressure ⑤The thermostat is normally open ⑥The piston is stuck ⑦Lack of refrigerant

Troubleshooting:

①Check the wiring ②Check the line power supply ③Reset ④Remove the cause of the high pressure ⑤Repair or replace ⑥Replace the compressor ⑦Replenish fluid

2. Short cycle of the freezer unit

Cause Analysis:

①Exhaust valve leakage ②Reverse evaporator fan ③Lack of refrigerant ④Expansion blockage ⑤Too much refrigerant ⑥Circulation, high pressure interruption ⑦Condenser coil blockage

Troubleshooting:

①Replace the compressor ②Correct ③Repair the leak and refill ④Replace ⑤Remove the excess ⑥Check the airflow and fan ⑦Clean

3. The refrigerated truck unit runs for a long time or continuously

Cause analysis: ① insufficient refrigerant ② thermostat contact sticking ③ dirty condenser ④ air in the system ⑤ low compressor efficiency ⑥ blocked expansion valve ⑦ icing or clogged coil

Troubleshooting: ①repair the leak and replenish the fluid ②replace ③clean ④remove ⑤replace the compressor ⑥remove or replace ⑦defrost or clean

4. The temperature of the cargo compartment is too high

Cause Analysis:

①Refrigerant ②The thermostat setting is too high ③The expansion valve is blocked ④The compressor efficiency is low ⑤The expansion valve is set too high ⑥The pipeline is blocked

Troubleshooting: ①Repair the leak and add fluid ②Re-adjust ③Repair or replace ④Replace the compressor ⑤Lower ⑥Remove

5. Too high pressure

Cause Analysis:

①Too much refrigerant ②There is air in the system ③The condenser is blocked ④The condenser fan does not rotate ⑤The condenser fan is reversed

Troubleshooting:①Remove excess ②System vacuum ③Remove ④Check the fan motor ⑤Check the direction

6. The pressure is too low,

Cause analysis ①Insufficient refrigerant ②Compressor suction or discharge valve failure

Troubleshooting ①repair the leakage and replenish fluid ②replace the compressor

7. The refrigeration unit is noisy

Causes analysis①Lack of compressor oil ②Fixed loose

Troubleshooting ①Add oil to proper amount ②Tighten

8. The compressor loses oil

Causes analysis① Insufficient refrigerant ② Blocked expansion valve ③ Wrong oil viscosity ④ Compressor suction temperature is too high

Troubleshooting①Repair leakage and add liquid ②Remove or replace ③Use suitable oil ④Adjust the expansion valve

9. The liquid pipe is too hot

Causes analysis①Insufficient refrigerant ②Expansion valve is opened too much

Troubleshooting: ① plugging and rehydration ② adjusting expansion valve

10. The upper pipe of the condenser is cold when the unit is running

Causes analysis ① insufficient refrigerant ② low compressor efficiency

Troubleshooting ① plugging and make up fluid ② repair the compressor

11. System vacuum, only frost is formed on the expansion valve

Cause Analysis

①Ice blockage of expansion valve

②The expansion valve filter is blocked

Troubleshooting:

①Wrap the expansion valve with a hot damp cloth. If the suction pressure rises, it means there is water in the system. Replace the filter drier.

②Clean the filter screen or replace the expansion valve
