Important facts about your air conditioner compressor

 The air conditioning system's engine is a compressor. It converts the refrigerant from a cool, low-pressure liquid to hot, high-pressure gas and back again. The quality of life for someone residing in a hot location like the UAE has significantly improved thanks to the other air conditioning system's exploitation of this temperature fluctuation to create cool air.

Your air conditioner may stop functioning for a variety of reasons. Fortunately, not all of them are pricey remedies. Your air conditioner may have lost power because of a simple loose wire. Another possibility is that the system's air movement is being impeded by a clogged air filter. During routine AC preventative maintenance, these issues can be identified and fixed. 

Here are a few common reasons for the failure of the air conditioner compressor.

Dirt Accumulation

The condenser coil becomes clogged with dirt, filth, and mineral scales, which prevents the air conditioner from removing enough heat from the system and forces it to operate nonstop to chill your space. The compressor may overheat and stop working because of the elevated pressure and temperature.

Inadequate Refrigerant Charge

Your AC unit's refrigerant level may determine whether your compressor will malfunction. This is because if your air conditioner starts to leak refrigerant, the level may get so low that the compressor must work harder to pump enough refrigerant through the system to chill your space, which will eventually lead it to malfunction.

Loud Noises

When the tremors and loud banging or growling noises that your HVAC system makes first appear, you should be immediately alarmed. Failure of the AC compressor is one of the issues it could be a symptom of. These AC noises are a sign that the compressor is having difficulties starting and will eventually break down. The compressor's electrical components failing is another sign of the hammering sound.

Electrical Failure

Contactors, cables, and fuses that have been damaged can result in an electrical failure. Acids accumulate in your system because of electrical issues, which causes other AC components to break down as well. Your air conditioner may experience electrical problems because of power surges.

The buildup of acid and oxidation is typically a clear indicator of electrical issues with your HVAC system. During a routine examination, a skilled specialist can find acid accumulation and fix it before it gets out of control.

When choosing a refrigeration product, understanding its major components and the technical issues that may cause the malfunction of the product is very crucial. The air conditioner compressor is a major part of refrigeration products and needs periodical maintenance and monitoring for long and effective product life.
