Failure Causes and Elimination Methods of Refrigeration Unit High Exhaust Temperature
High exhaust temperature is one of the most frequent common faults of industrial refrigeration units in high-temperature seasons. Long-term high-temperature exhaust operation will cause compressor aging, refrigerant failure and condenser overload, seriously shortening equipment service life. Industry data shows that 53% of unit aging faults are related to long-term high exhaust temperature operation.
Insufficient condenser heat dissipation is the primary cause of high exhaust temperature. Condenser fin dust blockage, scaling and fan failure will reduce heat exchange efficiency, resulting in the inability to discharge high-temperature heat generated by the unit in time. This cause accounts for 68% of all high exhaust temperature faults.
Refrigerant filling volume deviation will also cause temperature abnormity. Excessive refrigerant filling increases unit operating load, while insufficient filling leads to incomplete refrigeration cycle. Both conditions will cause exhaust temperature to rise by 8℃-12℃, affecting system stable operation.
xindacool professional after-sales technicians have standardized fault elimination processes for high exhaust temperature. First, clean condenser fins and pipelines to restore heat exchange efficiency, then calibrate refrigerant filling volume, and finally detect pipeline pressure to eliminate hidden dangers. The one-time fault resolution rate reaches 98%.
Ambient temperature overload operation is an external inducement. When the workshop ambient temperature is higher than 42℃, the natural heat dissipation capacity of the condenser decreases sharply. Assisting with industrial air coolers for peripheral cooling can reduce unit exhaust temperature by 7℃ and effectively relieve equipment load.
Aging of unit lubricating oil will aggravate high-temperature faults. Degraded lubricating oil increases compressor friction resistance, generates extra heat and raises exhaust temperature. Replacing lubricating oil every 8000 operating hours can maintain stable equipment operating state.
Many users ignore early warning signals of high exhaust temperature, resulting in equipment forced shutdown and component damage. Regular temperature monitoring and timely troubleshooting can completely avoid equipment damage caused by long-term high-load operation.
