System Contamination Cleanup
This section describes the basic requirements for restoring
contaminated systems to reliable service.
DETERMINING SEVERITY OF CONTAMINATION
System contamination is generally caused by either
moisture or residue from compressor burnout entering the
refrigeration system.
Inspection of the refrigerant usually provides the first
indication of system contamination. Obvious moisture or
an acrid odor in the refrigerant indicates contamination.
If either condition is found, or if contamination is
suspected use a test kit.
If a refrigerant test kit indicates harmful levels of
contamination, or if a test kit is not available, inspect the
compressor oil.
1. Remove the refrigerant charge from the ice machine.
2. Remove the compressor from the system.
3. Check the odor and appearance of the oil.
4. Inspect open suction and discharge lines at the
compressor for burnout deposits.
5. If no signs of contamination are present, perform
an acid oil test to determine the type of cleanup
required.
