Refrigeration Equipment: Repairs

No modern commercial enterprise engaged in the sale of food can not do without working in the refrigeration equipment. The most diverse classes of machines, differing in their productivity, dimensions, and also the purpose and type of performance, can now be found in every grocery store.

Being a rather complex technique, commercial refrigeration equipment requires an appropriate operating and maintenance mode, but, like any equipment, it has the property to break at the most inopportune moment.

Repair of refrigeration equipment is quite a complicated, time-consuming and ambiguous process, which can consist both in simple adjustment of the components of the unit and in the replacement of expensive parts and assemblies. In any case, such a responsible event should be entrusted to professionals who in the shortest possible time will conduct the necessary fault diagnosis and repair the failed components, ensuring high quality and reliability of the work performed.

If the trading machine fails due to the specifics of its use, it is necessary to solve the problems in the shortest possible time, since the main purpose of such equipment is storage of food products at a given temperature regime. A simple technique that has broken down, or the operation of equipment in a freelance mode, leads to losses both because of the spoilage of products, and because of unforeseen energy costs. That is why the timely repair of refrigeration equipment is an extremely necessary measure, preserving the facilities and nerves of the owners of the units.

The most frequent faults are due to which it is impossible to set or maintain the required temperature regime, partial or complete failure of lighting, cooling and thawing systems, as well as a violation of the tightness of the connections of the unit leading to energy losses. In addition, the refrigeration equipment has a service life that requires periodic updates, in particular refueling, as well as replacement and adjustment of individual components. At the same time, quite often during the operation of the equipment, various kinds of leaks, failures and deterioration of the quality of work of individual components may occur.

Repair of refrigeration equipment is carried out according to categories reflecting the degree of wear or the nature of the malfunctions that occurred during operation. In particular, they distinguish:

• Current repair, which is carried out in order to prevent the operation of units;
• Medium repair, which is carried out with the purpose of restoring the operability of the equipment by repairing or replacing defective parts or assemblies;
• Major overhaul, involving full restoration or complete or partial replacement of the main parts of the refrigeration system.

In some cases, when in the course of routine maintenance services there were revealed significant malfunctions or malfunctions, repair can be carried out according to the technical state. In addition, this class of repairs should be carried out when further operation of the equipment is not possible, can lead to more serious breakdowns, or poses a danger to the personnel. Do not forget that timely repair of refrigeration equipment contributes not only to the restoration of normal working capacity, but also is the basis for the uninterrupted operation of equipment for a long time.
