At EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, we provide professional compressor efficiency testing for air-cooled chillers to ensure your system operates at peak performance with minimal energy waste. Over time, compressor efficiency can decline due to wear, refrigerant issues, improper loading, or internal mechanical faults. Our testing service helps you evaluate real-world compressor performance, identify inefficiencies, and take corrective actions to lower operating costs and extend equipment life.
Identifies performance drops due to wear, leaks, or mechanical issues
Helps reduce energy consumption and cooling costs
Detects early signs of compressor fatigue or failure
Ensures optimal operation under various load conditions
Supports preventive maintenance and system upgrades
Compressor power consumption vs. cooling output (kW/ton)
Discharge and suction pressure
Temperature differential across compressor
Refrigerant charge and flow rate
Compressor cycling and run time behavior
Motor current draw and power factor
We begin with a full operational check of the chiller, compressor, refrigerant levels, and controls to ensure safe testing conditions.
Using advanced tools such as digital gauges, data loggers, and power analyzers, we monitor:
Cooling capacity delivered
Electrical input (volts, amps, kW)
Pressure-temperature performance across the system
We compare the measured efficiency values against:
OEM specifications
Historical data (if available)
Industry standards for air-cooled chillers
If efficiency loss is detected, we help determine the root cause:
Refrigerant undercharge or overcharge
Valve leakage or restriction
Mechanical wear or motor issues
Dirty coils or blocked airflow
We provide a comprehensive report that includes:
Efficiency ratio (e.g., kW/ton)
Detected performance deviations
Actionable recommendations for repair, optimization, or upgrades
Lowers energy bills by improving compressor performance
Helps avoid overloading and premature failure
Ensures consistent and reliable cooling
Supports compliance with energy-saving initiatives
Maximizes return on investment for your HVAC system
Experts in chiller performance optimization and diagnostics
Use of accurate testing tools and analysis software
Experience with all major air-cooled chiller brands and models
Fast, non-intrusive testing with minimal disruption
Full support including repairs, retrofits, and maintenance
A healthy compressor means a more efficient chiller. With EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd’s air-cooled chiller compressor efficiency testing, you gain the insights needed to boost performance, reduce costs, and extend system life. Contact us today to schedule your efficiency check.
