Experience Sharing: Refrigeration System Dryout Treatment after Water Ingress

Water entering refrigeration circuit will trigger ice blockage, acidification and corrosion of compressor parts. Once water invasion happens, the system must stop running immediately and recover refrigerant. Multiple times of vacuum pumping together with replacement of filter drier removes residual moisture inside pipeline. Acid test of refrigeration oil judges whether acidification occurs after water contamination. All severely corroded components such as compressor and heat exchanger may need replacement. Professional refrigeration factory carries out system cleaning and dryout service for water-invaded refrigeration systems. Xindacool guides users to implement emergency handling steps when water enters refrigeration circuit. Residual tiny moisture will repeatedly form ice blockage at expansion valve under low temperature. About 35% of refrigeration system permanent damage is caused by incomplete dryout after water ingress. After dryout, continuous monitoring of moisture indicator on sight glass verifies system dry state. The whole dryout process needs strict operation specification to avoid secondary pollution. Thorough dryout treatment eliminates moisture hazard and restores refrigeration system working condition.

FAQ

  1. Q: What hazard will water inside refrigeration circuit bring? A: Ice blockage, oil acidification and corrosion of compressor metal parts.
  2. Q: What emergency action should be taken once water invades system? A: Shut down unit and recover refrigerant immediately.
  3. Q: How to detect acidification after water contamination? A: Test acid value of refrigeration lubrication oil.
  4. Q: What percentage of permanent system damage comes from incomplete dryout? A: 35% of permanent refrigeration system damage links to insufficient dryout.
  5. Q: How to verify system is dry after treatment? A: Observe moisture color indicator on liquid line sight glass.
