Air-Cooled Chiller Compressor Overhauling – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we provide expert compressor overhauling services for air-cooled chillers, helping to restore your system’s performance, reliability, and lifespan. Over time, compressors experience internal wear and tear that impacts efficiency and increases the risk of breakdowns. Our comprehensive overhauling process gives your compressor a second life—without the high cost of full replacement.

Why Compressor Overhauling Is Important

• Restores original performance and cooling capacity

• Prevents unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs

• Extends compressor and system lifespan

• Reduces energy consumption and operating noise

• Improves mechanical reliability and safety

When to Consider Overhauling

• Frequent compressor tripping or overheating

• Noticeable drop in cooling performance

• High energy bills with no clear cause

• Excessive noise or vibration during operation

• Visible signs of oil contamination, leaks, or pressure loss

Our Compressor Overhauling Process

Initial Diagnosis and Performance Evaluation
We assess the compressor’s condition through:

• Vibration analysis

• Electrical and mechanical checks

• Oil inspection and refrigerant system evaluation

Compressor Removal and Disassembly
We carefully disconnect and remove the compressor from the chiller, then disassemble it for detailed internal inspection.

Component Cleaning and Inspection
We clean all internal parts and examine:

• Pistons, scrolls, or rotors (based on compressor type)

• Bearings, shafts, valves, and gaskets

• Oil system, seals, and internal surfaces

Replacement of Worn or Damaged Parts
We replace worn or failed components with OEM-approved or high-grade replacements, including:

• Bearings and seals

• Valve plates and piston rings

• Gaskets and shaft sleeves

• Oil filters and separators

Reassembly and Precision Testing
The compressor is reassembled and tested for:

• Internal clearance and balance

• Smooth shaft rotation and pressure sealing

• Electrical insulation and start-up reliability

Reinstallation and System Recommissioning
We reinstall the overhauled compressor, recharge refrigerant (if required), and test the chiller under full load conditions.
