MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
12.1 System Trouble shooting
12.1.1 Servicing freezer
(1)Check the whole circuit of freezer, if there are wire connections came off, any wires broken, or a short circuit.
(2) Check the insulation of the whole freezer. At normal situation, the resistance is greater than 2 mebohms; if it is less than 2 mebohms, please make a further check of the freezer resistance. Set the voltmeter to R1 Ohm position, put the two voltmeter leads pencils into L and N terminals respectively, watch the indication of odometer. The normal value is several Ohm to tens of ohm. If the resistance is zero, means that there is a short in the freezer circuit or there is a short caused by a bad compressor or fan motor. The reason should be found out and repaired. If the resistance is too big or infinite, this means that there is broken circuit, please check and solve it.
After the above checks, the freezer will not have any electrical problem and you can switch power on for further completely check.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
12.1.2 Reasons of electricity leakage of freezer
(1) Leakage of compressor: mainly because of serious vibration, the motor coil of compressor contacts with the shell, the coat of enameled wire will come off some where and connect with shell. Other reasons may be over voltage, insufficient of voltage, adverse circumstances (temperature too high, ventilation and heat radiation to bad) for freezer, thermal protection unit out of order, etc. They will make the motor coil over temperature, insulation material loose, insulation is damaged then electricity will occur.
(2) Leakage of motor connection terminals: the connection terminals of fully enclosed compressor are made from high temperature soda glass sintered ceramics, around the terminals are filled with a high polymer. The terminals and insulation material must have the same linear expansion coefficient, the for requirement between terminals and the shell is more than 0.5 million ohm. The reason of terminal leakage is that soda glass is broken or there are conductive materials such as water, dirt, etc., adhered to terminals.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
If electricity leakage occurs outside the compressor, please use tetra chloromethane or alcohol to clean it. If the leakage occurs in the inner of compressor, it needs to be changed.
(3) Leakage of temperature controller: because of too long a period of service or too high temperature, or too much dirt, or too high humidity, there may be electricity leakage. If it has been defined that there is leakage of temperature controller, please change.
(4) Leakage of starting relay: during mounting and repairing, screw of relay lead is easy to contact the shell and leakage will then occur. If you suspect the relay is bad, check it. If there is leakage, please make the connections again and leave a piece of insulation paper under the screw.
(5) Leakage of fan: because of too high humidity of freezer environment or a bad fan controlling unit, the fan is burned after long time operation and thus causes leakage. Using voltammeter to measure the insulation resistance between each respective connection terminal and the freezer body, if the resistance is too
little, means there is leakage caused by humidity; if the resistance
Is zero, means the fan coil is burned or short-circuited. Please change the fan.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
12.1.3 Troubleshooting observation
(1) At normal operation conditions, the temperature around the surface of freezer evaporator is nearly the same; the thickness of frost layer is similar. If there is no frost at the surface of evaporator (bed type freezer at all of its inner wall), or only a small part at the upper, conclusion can be made that the operation of refrigeration system is not normal, the refrigerant is insufficient or there is leakage.
(2) Check the system tubing and make sure there is no leakage, especially at the joint connections. Refrigerant has good permeability, and it also contains a little refrigerant oil. If there is leak, there will be traces of oil at the leak points.
12.1.4 Troubleshooting by sounds
(1) When the freezer is working normal, high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows into the low-pressure evaporator via acapillarytube, a gas flowing sound and water flowing sound can
be heard. Open the freezer door and access to the evaporator, you can hear the sound. If there is no sound or there is sound a little now and then, there must be leakage of system refrigerant or insufficient charge.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
(2) After switching on power, Listen to the running sound of the compressor whether it is normal or not. Whether or not hear normal running sounds. If there is heavy buzz that means the motor has not been started normally. If there is bump sound, this means that the suspended spring in the compressor is broken and the compressor is running in tilt. When these matters occur, please change compressor.
12.1.5 troubleshooting by touch
(1) Touch the cover of condenser, after continuous operation, the upper part of the cover is the warmest; the temperature of lower part is similar to room temperature. Its temperature is relative to environment temperature. The temperature in winter is low and the condensers temperature is low too, and there is only a small part warm. In summer, the temperature is high and the temperature of condenser cover is high too, and the whole condenser is warm.
(2) The temperature of high-pressure exhaust pipe is high, when touching with your hand, in summer it is hot; in winter it is also hot. The temperature of low-pressure gas inlet pipe is low. In summer there is dew at the pipe wall and it will feel cool when touching; when touching in winter, it will feel cooler.

(3) The cover temperature of The evaporator can be as low as
-30it will feel sticky when touching. If youd like to touch, please move your hand over it quickly, otherwise your hand will be stuck.
(4) At normal operation of freezer, the temperature of filter dryer cover is similar to room temperature, only a little warmer. If the cover temperature is much higher or lower than that of environment, and there is frost, there must be problem with the refrigeration system.
Touching the above mentioned parts, if there is big temperature difference compared with normal, there must be problem and further decision should be made.
12.1.6 System noise repair
Normally there are two kinds of freezer noise, one is the natural noise of compressor and fan, and the other is the resonance noise or structural noise. The natural noise of compressor and fan is controlled within a standard range, if the range is exceeded, the compressor or fan needs to be repaired or changed. The resonance or structural noise can be handled as follows:

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
(1) If the freezer is not level, or if the floor is loose, please adjust the base cover or fasten the floor.
(2) If noise is caused by tighten loose of screw between the base cover and freezer body, please make it tight.
(3) If the reason for noise is the aging rubber cushion of compressor or a loose fastening clip, please change rubber cushion, or secure clip.
(4) If tubing bumps against freezer body, or against each other, make adjustments accordingly to remove noise.
(5) If fan blade is blocked and thus causes noise, please clear the obstacles around the fan, or adjust fan blades.
(6) If the fan supporter is loose and noise is caused, please tighten.
12.1.7 Poor freezing effect analysis and solutions
(1) Check the position of temperature control dial, if it is set at weak position, please change to middle or close to strong position.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
(2) Check the rear side and the top of freezer, if it is too close to the wall or not; if the freezer is under sunlight directly or if it is near thermal source or not; if the room temperature is too high or not; if the condenser is blocked by cloth pieces or paper or dirt or not. Any one of these matters will affect heat radiation of condenser and refrigeration ability will be reduced.
(3) Check if there are too much food stored in the freezer, if hot food has been put in or not, Too full of food is not good for cold air circulation. Hot foodstuff can only be put in when it gets cool.
(4) Check if the freezer door has been closed well, if the door seal bar is too dirty and the door cannot be sealed well. Remove dirt and put on a little talcum powder.
(5) Frequent opening and extended opening of freezer door will reduce refrigeration ability.
12.1.8 How to handle the seal bar for poor sealing
If there is too much dirt and the sealing effect is not well, please
take a rag and dip in warm water and clean the seal bar. After
cleaned, put on a little talcum powder. If there is still seam, you
can put an electrical blower outside the seal bar and make it warm,

keep the temperature at 50-60, press the bar to make it recover, and press the bar around by hand, so that it can recover. If this is not effective, take a piece of sponge with about 10mm wide, 5mm thick, a little longer than the seam and put it inside the seal bar, i.e., the place between the bottom of seal bar and the door cushion. This will make the seam place higher and adhere to freezer body the same as other places.
12.1.9 Why freezer cannot be used at low temperature environment
When environment temperature is below zero, the lubrication ability of freezing oil in freezer compressor will decrease, the compressor will be difficult to start or cannot be started, or
Compressor damage may occur.
12.1.10 How to know there is problem with compressor motor
It is easy to find out motor problem by checking the resistance of coil. The method is to connect the terminals of common and run using ohm- meter, the coil resistance can then be determined. Using terminals common and start can measure the resistance of starting coil. If the value is infinite, the coil must be open. If the resistance is much less than the value the motor has, there must be short circuit problem inside the motor or the windings are burned.

12.1.13 Procedure for temperature controller change
(1) Switch off power.
(2) Remove side protection cover.
(3) Unscrew fastening nut.
(4) Hold the base end of temperature sensing tube and the controller, pull
out downward.
(5) Change with new temperature controller.
12.2 Common freezer problems
12.2.1 Freezer cannot be started
When switching on power, the freezer cannot be started. Determine first that the failure is caused by inside or outside factors. The factors may be:
(1) Outside factors
The fuse is burned, or the contact of plug and socket is not well, or the voltage is too low.
The knob of temperature controller is set to off position.
(2) In side factors
Electrical problem of freezer (normally caused by connection terminals
coming off or not in good contact).
Temperature controller out of order (contact point are burned or switch
element is damaged, etc.).
The start capacitor is bad.

The starter relay or overload protector is bad. A bad starter normally is
caused by a burn a contact points or the welded point has come off; a bad thermal protection unit is normally caused by burn contact points or a bad heating wire.
The motor winding are burned. The compressor shaft is broken and blocking the cylinder.
12.2.2 Operation of freezer is not normal
Freezer starts when power is switched on, but after a few seconds or 1-2 minutes, it stops automatically and will start again in several minutes. It stops again within a very short time period after starting. If it runs like this
Continuity and can not work normally; there are several reasons for this matter:
(1) Big fluctuation of voltage The voltage required for proper operation is 220V olts. If the voltage is too
high, the current flowing through the starter will increase accordingly. When it exceeds the permissible value, the starting contact point will keep in connection state for a long time and cannot be released in time (at normal situation, the motor starting coil will cut off in about 1s after starting). This will make the coil temperature rising rapidly, and then the thermal protection unit cuts off the circuit and stop operation. When power is cut off, the temperature of thermal protection unit reduces quickly and will switch power on when reaching the reset temperature. At this time, if the contact point has not been released, the starting contact point could not contact tightly and it is in false connection. This will make the compressor tremble; thermal protection unit will open after a short time.
(2) Operating amperage too high Freezer operation current is too big and will not operate normally. There are
two reasons way:

First, the freezer stops automatically after a few seconds after starting, several minutes later it starts again and stops automatically again. With in cycles like this and the motor, or starter, and thermal protection unit will burn up after a long time. The main reason is: the motor coil is shorted at some parts.
Second, the freezer operates a certain time after starting, but it will stop automatically before the temperature reduces before the desired temperature is reached. After several minutes, it will start again, and the electricity consumption increases bad. The reason is that the insulation around the motor windings bad.

12.6 Freezer noise
12.6.1 Freezer noise sources
Freezer noise comes from the expanding with heat and contracting with cold of compressor, evaporator or condenser; from the contacting or resonance of pipes; from the flowing of refrigerant; or from the vibration of freezer because the floor is not level, etc.

12.6.2 Compressor
Freezer noise mainly comes from the compressor. The Compressor generates various sounds. There are continuous and not continuous, periodic and not periodic. Their frequencies may be from tens of Hertz to thousands of Hertz. Reasons for compressor noise are:
(1) There are two pieces thin elastic steel slice inside the compressor (gas
in valve and gas out valve), when the freezer starts, each steel slice will open and close about 47 times per second, this will cause vibration sound. At the same time, the open and close of steel slice will contacts other parts and also make sound. The continuous buzz we heard is this kind of sound.
(2) When compressor is produced, there must be clearance between
components. When freezer is running, the existing of clearance will make some components touch and gives out sound. Especially, at starting and stopping, the forces acted on compressor components changes greatly and bigger sound will be generated.
(3) Noise of flowing liquid
The running process of compressor is a continuous gas in and out process.
If the pressure of refrigerant gas breathed in or exhausted out changes suddenly, vibration sound will be generated.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
Maintenance Service and Trouble Shooting
(4) Resonance sound of compressor components
Compressor parts, such as compressor body, exhaust tube, noise eliminator in compressor, supporting spring, etc., will cause resonance sometimes and give out sound.
(5) Collision between body and shell
Compressor body is suspended by three pieces of spring or supported by spring in the shell. At starting or stopping, forces acted on compressor changes greatly and sometimes make the body contact its shell and makes sound. This situation is of shore duration.
(6) The electromagnetic sound a hermetically sealed motor, is relatively
small
12.6.3 How is the sound of water flowing generated?
Answer: When liquid refrigerant is flowing especially through the evaporator, there will sound like water flowing. This sound is different, for the evaporator used and assembly technologies during producing are
different. If there is not this sound at freezer operation, and evaporator cannot make refrigeration, condenser is not hot, this means there is restriction or there is a refrigerant leak.

12.6.4 Gas flowing sound
At operation of compressor, it breathes in and exhausts out gas continuously. When liquid refrigerant flows through capillary, there will be gas jet and makes sound of gas flowing. This is normal sound and may be different for various freezers as compressors and evaporators used are different.
12.6.5 Why there is sudden cluck sound or pattering sound from freezer?
Answer: This is the sound of expanding with heat and contracting with cold of condenser and evaporator, or the sound of ice at evaporator surface because of sudden heat or cold. This sound may occur at the following situations:
(1) Newly bought freezer, the internal stress of materials has not been
eliminated. With time going on, the stress of materials will disappear and it is less possible to make this sound.
(2) Temperature in the freezer is not uniform just after frost melting.
(3) When open door and take out food, the evaporator feels hot suddenly.
(4) Temperature changes greatly of condenser and evaporator several
minutes after starting or stopping of freezer.
Expand with heat and contract with cold is natural law, and this sound is normal.

12.6.6 Why the freezers noise increases after using sometime?
Answer: After half a year or one years use, clearance will increase because of wear of inner components, and compressors noise will increase accordingly. Then it will get stable till the whole life of freezer.
12.6.7 Why freezers noise increases after stop use for sometime?
Answer: After long time stop of freezer, the crankshaft of compressor may be blocked by dirt brought in by lubrication oil or blocked by freezing lubrication oil because of low temperature. For this reason, compressor cannot be started, or noise will increase after starting, and the wear of
crankshaft will increase too. It is better that freezer doesnt stop use. Sometimes newly bought freezer also has this characteristic. After a period
operation, it will get normal.
12.6.8 How to reduce freezers noise?
At present, all kinds of freezers have the problem of noise. Scientists have been seeking a method to solve it but to little effect. The final solution depends on new improvements and developments in technology.

12.6.9 why freezer noise changes greater at night?
Answer: This is because the affection of freezer noise to people is relative to the level of environmental sound. In noisy city or shops, people feel the noise is little, while in countryside or quiet living room will feel the same noise greater. This is the reason that people feel the freezer gets noisier at home than at shop.
12.6.10 What are the national stipulations for freezer noise?
Answer: Regarding the side effect of noise to people’s health and the technological level freezer industry can reach at present, standardized stipulations for freezer noise is made in national standard GB8059.1-87: family use freezer with the volume below 250L, noise52 dB(A) sound power level. The noise at offices we stay everyday or other public places is much higher than this freezer noise.
12.6.11 Why freezer noise measured at home is incorrect?
Answer: Because at home there is not the environment conditions for freezer noise measuring, and the value measured is not effective. The conditions for noise measuring are stipulated in national standard as the followings:

(1) In semi-sound eliminating room or in sound eliminating room without sound wave reflection.
(2) Put freezer onto 5-10mm elastic cushion.
(3) Freezer must be empty and running at least 30 minutes before measuring. If normal stop happens, please make the measurement 3 minutes after freezer starting again.
(4) 4 measuring positions are required, they are 1m away from freezer at front, back, front left, front right respectively. The height is 1/2 of freezer; the instrument is accurate sound level meter (A weighted).
12.6.12 What’s the different between national noise standard 52dB(A) and ministry of light industry standard 42dB?
Answer: The noise of 52dB(A) in national standard is the sound power level. Under the measuring conditions stipulated in national standard, measure the freezer noise at four points, take the average of indicated reading at greater noise situation, calculate the arithmetic average value of the four points. This value is the average sound pressure level of noise, the calculation formula is:
Lw=(LPA-2)+10LgS
where: LW—sound power level, dB
LPA-average sound pressure level of measuring surface, dB

The standard 42dB of the ministry of light industry is the noise pressure level measured 1m away from freezer door. This value plus 10 is the approximate value of sound power level.
The restriction to noise in national standard is more strict and scientific. At present, freezer noise is required to take sound power level stipulated in national standard.
12.6.13 Why the noises of it type freezers are different?
Answer: The noise of each qualified freezer ex-factory is within the range of national standard. Different types of freezers have different powers, compressors used are not the same neither, and so their noises are
different. Even for same type freezers, as the noise of compressors are different, their differences to national standard 52dB(A) are not the same, and the noises are different.
12.6.14 Why there are greater noises at starting and stopping of freezer?
Answer:
(1) At the starting of freezer, starting relay will make sound. The acceleration of motor will cause vibration of compressor and makes sound.

(2) When freezer stops, because of inertial rotation, there will be vibration sound from compressor.
(3) When freezer stops, the compressor decelerates, high pressure and low pressure at gas exhausting tube and returning tube will get balance, thus causes sound of compressor.
(4) At the starting of compressor, if the voltage is low, the hammer
type-starting relay will make loud sound. Even if stabilizer is equipped with, measurement should be made in time. If it cannot reach the requirement of stabilizing, there must be quality problem with it, please dont use in case the voltage output is low.
For the previous reasons, freezer makes sound at starting and stopping.
12.6.15 Why sometimes noise at far distance is greater than at near distance?
Answer: Because the transfer of freezer noise has relations with freezer position, room space, etc. The sound wave giving out at freezer operation will reflect when it touches wall or furniture. So it is possible that at a far distance, it is noisier than near distance. So it is not correct to make decision of big sound just by it can be heard meters away.
