Air-cooled chiller refrigerant leak assessment for efficiency

Air-Cooled Chiller Refrigerant Leak Assessment for Efficiency – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we provide comprehensive refrigerant leak assessments for air-cooled chillers, with a strong focus on energy efficiency, system reliability, and performance optimization. Refrigerant leaks are one of the leading causes of cooling inefficiency, resulting in increased energy consumption, inconsistent temperatures, and premature equipment wear. Our expert technicians use advanced tools and techniques to identify leaks early, assess their impact on performance, and recommend solutions to restore optimal system efficiency.

Why Refrigerant Leak Assessment is Essential for Efficiency

• Prevents Energy Waste – Leaks reduce refrigerant charge, forcing the compressor to work harder and consume more power.

• Restores Cooling Capacity – Identifying and repairing leaks ensures the system can reach and maintain target temperatures efficiently.

• Protects Critical Components – Operating with low refrigerant puts stress on the compressor and other major components, risking breakdowns.

• Supports Predictive Maintenance – Early leak detection helps plan cost-effective repairs before major issues develop.

• Reduces Operating Costs – Efficient refrigerant management leads to lower electricity bills and longer equipment life.

Our Refrigerant Leak Assessment Process

• Visual System Evaluation
  We inspect all refrigerant lines, joints, coils, and fittings for signs of oil residue, corrosion, or damage.

• Pressure & Performance Monitoring
  We measure suction and discharge pressures, cooling output, and compressor activity to detect signs of inefficiency due to leaks.

• Electronic & Ultrasonic Leak Detection
  Using high-precision detectors, we locate small or hidden leaks without dismantling your system.

• Infrared or UV Dye Tracing (if needed)
  For complex cases, we apply thermal imaging or fluorescent dye to identify leak locations visually.

• Leak Impact Analysis
  We calculate how the leak has affected energy consumption, refrigerant charge levels, and cooling efficiency, and provide a performance loss report.

• Repair Recommendations & Efficiency Recovery Plan
  After the assessment, we offer tailored repair or recharge options, and recommend strategies to restore and enhance system efficiency.
