4. PROBABLE CAUSE
 COMPRESSOR INSPECTION REPORT

4.PROBABLE CAUSE
1.Flooding
Flooding is liquid refrigerant entering the compressor’s crankcase while the compressor is running. Flooding
occurs to a compressor only during the on cycle.
Since liquid refrigerants are heavier than refrigeration oils, liquid refrigerant returning to the compressor will
settle under the oil in the bottom of the compressor’s crankcase. This liquid refrigerant will gradually be boiled
off from the low pressures in the crankcase. However, since the liquid refrigerant being boiled off is under the
oil in the crankcase, very small oil particles will be entrained in this vaporization process. The oil level in the
crankcase will now drop and rob mechanical parts of vital lubrication.

Flooding can cause by:

1.Low load
2.Dirty Evaparator
3.Filter Clog
4.Blower Belt Failure
5.Overcharge the system
6.Evaparator Fan out

2.Liquid Slugging

Liquid slugging is a condition that results when an air conditioner's refrigerant enters the compressor while it is
still in a liquid state. It usually damages parts of the compressor, like the compressor motor, because these
parts are designed to handle gases.

Liquid Slugging can cause by:

1.Low load
2.Dirty Evaparator
3.Filter Clog
4.Blower Belt Failure
5.Overcharge the system
6.Evaparator Fan out

2.Recommend to perform compressor inspection and overhaul for every 5 years.

3.Recommend to standby 1 extra compressor for quick replacement (for critical location).
4.Need to stop and inspect the system if any abnormal reading taken during the Preventive Maintenance.
