Quick action guide

Applies to

Commercial upright, glass-door, worktop and freezer cabinets.

Safe checks

Record temperature, sound, controller display and whether fans operate.

Stop the equipment

Stop if there is burning smell, repeated tripping or severe metallic noise.

Request service

Call when the compressor will not start, overheats repeatedly or measured cooling performance remains poor.

Before replacing the compressor

Confirm the diagnosis

Relays, capacitors, inverter drives, voltage, fans, refrigerant leakage and blocked heat rejection can imitate compressor failure.

Find the cause

A new compressor may fail again if the original overheating, contamination or refrigerant problem is not corrected.

Verify after repair

The system should be evacuated, charged as specified and checked for current, pressure, temperature response and leakage.

Common questions

Is every no-start fault a failed compressor?

No. Electrical starting parts, controls, protection devices and supply voltage must also be checked.

What does the price include?

The reference range covers common compressor replacement, refrigerant service and testing; the confirmed scope depends on the equipment.
