Common abattoir refrigeration systems problems in Ladysmith West

Faults we diagnose and repair for Ladysmith West commercial and industrial clients.

Chiller Not Cooling

A chiller running without producing cold water may have a compressor fault, refrigerant loss, a circulation problem or a control issue. Diagnosis should compare supply and return water temperatures with compressor running status before assuming a refrigeration failure.

Compressor faultRefrigerant underchargeWater flow restriction

Chiller Not Starting

A chiller that won't start may be held off by a safety interlock, a power supply issue or a controller fault. The alarm log and status lights provide the first diagnostic information.

Safety interlock openPower supply faultController failure

Chiller Trips on Safety

Repeated safety trips indicate a fault the controller is protecting against — high pressure, low pressure, oil pressure, motor overload or flow loss. Resetting without diagnosis risks compressor damage.

High head pressureLow suction pressureOil pressure loss

High Discharge Pressure

High discharge pressure means the condenser cannot reject enough heat. Dirty coils, poor water flow, high ambient or non-condensables in the refrigerant are the usual causes.

Dirty condenserInsufficient water flowHigh ambient

Low Suction Pressure

Low suction pressure can result from insufficient refrigerant, restricted flow through the expansion valve, poor evaporator heat transfer or a dirty filter drier. Persistent low pressure risks freezing the evaporator.

Refrigerant underchargeExpansion valve restrictionEvaporator fouling

Compressor Failure

Compressor failure is a major event — mechanical seizure, motor burnout or valve damage. Oil analysis, electrical testing and operating history help determine whether the cause was electrical, mechanical or lubrication-related.

Bearing seizureMotor burnoutValve damage

Refrigerant Leak

Refrigerant leaks reduce cooling capacity and efficiency, and some refrigerants have environmental or safety implications. Electronic leak detectors, ultraviolet dye and pressure-hold testing are standard methods.

Joint failureVibration crackingCorrosion

Frozen Evaporator

An iced evaporator blocks airflow and reduces heat transfer. Low refrigerant charge, poor water flow, faulty expansion valve or defrost failure can all cause freezing. Continued operation risks tube damage.
