At the AHR Expo this year, Emerson highlighted solutions aimed at helping contractors and OEMs achieve regulatory requirements with ease and meeting the need for highly efficient, reliable systems.

What happens in the condenser is a direct reflection of what is happening in the rest of the refrigeration system.

Airflow is one of the leading causes of failure for compressors.

Before servicing any refrigeration or air conditioning systems that contain an oil pump, technicians should make sure they understand the difference between net oil pressure and oil pump discharge pressure.

Have 166 years of small improvements and occasional leaps in chemistry taken us to the limit of what compressors can do?

The first step consists of determining the compressor’s mode of failure. Was it electrical or mechanical?

Any compressor that gets too hot or is overheated is subject to premature wear between its internal moving parts.

Any compressor that gets too hot or is overheated is subject to premature wear between its internal moving parts.

When electrically inspecting or troubleshooting a compressor, you should always protect yourself against the possibility of terminal venting.

Compressor manufacturers have been improving the products on multiple fronts in recent months.
