Air-Cooled Chiller Compressor Heat Issues | Diagnosis & Solutions by EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

Why Addressing Compressor Heat Issues is Crucial?

An overheating compressor in an air-cooled chiller can lead to reduced cooling efficiency, increased energy consumption, system failure, and costly downtime. Excessive heat buildup affects lubrication, refrigerant flow, and overall compressor lifespan. EKG M&E Sdn Bhd specializes in diagnosing and resolving air-cooled chiller compressor heat issues, ensuring optimal performance, energy efficiency, and long-term reliability.

Our ISO-certified chiller heat management solutions cater to:

• Industrial & Manufacturing Cooling Systems
• Data Centers & IT Cooling Facilities
• Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Cooling
• Food Processing & Cold Storage Units
• Commercial & Office HVAC Chillers

Common Causes of Compressor Heat Issues

• Insufficient Airflow – Blocked condenser coils, dirty filters, or restricted airflow can cause heat buildup
• Refrigerant Issues – Low refrigerant levels or incorrect refrigerant type can lead to overheating
• Excessive Load & High Ambient Temperatures – Overloaded chillers or operation in extreme heat environments strain compressors
• Oil Contamination & Lubrication Failure – Poor lubrication increases internal friction and heat generation
• Electrical Problems – Voltage fluctuations, faulty wiring, or incorrect phase balancing can cause overheating
• Compressor Short Cycling – Frequent start-stop cycles put extra strain on the compressor, leading to excessive heat
