Air-Cooled Chiller Oil Leak Troubleshooting | Reliable Solutions by EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

Why is Oil Leak Troubleshooting Essential for Air-Cooled Chillers?

The compressor in an air-cooled chiller relies on proper oil levels for lubrication, cooling, and smooth operation. An oil leak can cause reduced efficiency, overheating, increased wear on components, and even complete compressor failure. Oil leaks must be detected and repaired early to prevent costly repairs, downtime, and energy wastage. EKG M&E Sdn Bhd provides expert oil leak troubleshooting and repair services, ensuring maximum system performance, reliability, and cost savings.

Our ISO-certified oil leak troubleshooting services cater to:

• Food Processing & Cold Storage Units

Signs Your Air-Cooled Chiller Has an Oil Leak

Low Oil Levels & Frequent Refills

• Rapid oil depletion in the compressor system
• Need for frequent oil top-ups to maintain lubrication

Visible Oil Stains & Puddles Around the Chiller

• Oil accumulation near compressor seals, pipe joints, or gaskets
• Leaking oil dripping onto the chiller’s base or surrounding floor

Increased Energy Consumption & Reduced Efficiency

• Compressor working harder due to poor lubrication and increased friction
• Rising electricity bills due to inefficient operation

Compressor Overheating & System Shutdowns

• Poor oil circulation causing excessive heat buildup
• Chiller system shutting down due to high-temperature safety triggers

Unusual Noises & Vibration from Compressor

• Grinding or knocking sounds due to insufficient lubrication
• Increased vibration indicating internal wear and oil loss issues
