Ambient temperature <25℃
Test if the thermostat is normal under power on status:
Setting thermostat to coldest position (7 grade); observe if the machine can be started.
If compressor still not start, it means that the thermostat maybe failure.
Test if resistance of PTC starter ,if it is ZERO or INFINITE, means the starter is out of
work. For PTC starter, when shake it, it should not have noise, if it has, means the starter
Magnetic Disk burned.
1.
Measure whether two ends of overload protector is through using
multimeter Ohm grade. Not thorough means protector is defective.
2. Measure starting current and running current of compressor using
clamp-type tester. If overload protector act when current is normal,
means protector failure and should be replaced.
Before measurement, remove the capacitor from circuit firstly, and
then connect two terminals for discharge.
1. IF the finger of multimeter swings to 0 quickly and then swings
back slowly when measuring two poles of capacitor, it means the run
capacitor is normal.
2. If the finger of multimeter does not swing, it means the run
capacitor is open circuit. If the finger of mlimeter swings to 0 and stops
means it is short circuit, if it stops on any other position, it means the
ge.
capacitor leaka
Check each connectors of the starter overload
protector, ensure each contact is in good condition, then
power on and retest the machine.
Test the resistance parameter of the compressor; if it is ZERO,
inner winding is short circuit. if it is infinite, inner winding is
break circuit
If all technical parameter of compressor and compressor accessories (starter,
overload protector, run capacitor) are normal after above test, but compressor
still can not be started, and overload protector action, the actual starting
current excess too much. This phenomenon usually caused by compressor
inner mechanical failure (cylinder-block or axis-hung problem).
