Compressors fail for many reasons, but oil problems are among the most preventable. Correct oil return, quality and level protect the heart of the system.
At EJM Refrigeration we see the same pattern across industrial and commercial sites: small issues left unresolved become expensive interruptions. A clear plan, competent engineers and timely maintenance keep temperatures stable and costs under control.
What goes wrong
Liquid flood-back, blocked oil separators, incorrect oil type and neglected filter changes all shorten compressor life.
Good habits
Follow manufacturer guidance, monitor oil condition, keep separators maintained and investigate repeated low-oil alarms instead of simply topping up.
Protect the asset
EJM maintenance programmes include the unglamorous checks that keep compressors online. That is usually far cheaper than a replacement machine and lost production.
If your site is planning works, reviewing energy use, or simply needs a reliable service partner, our team can help from initial survey through installation and ongoing maintenance.
