    Re: related to proper handling of home type copeland scroll compressor (oil related)



    One thing we forgot to ask, was what was actually wrong with the new compressor, that failed after 4 minutes.
    tripping a main breaker could indicate a multiple of faults.

    Oil in the bottom of the condenser would seem to indicate floodback.

    If you rub the oil in the rug it looks like new, but I think she only needs lube for the larger installs

    Was the comp seized, down to earth, one of the windings open circuit. Is the comp actually knackered. If a muppett installed it, could he just of grosslly overcharged overloading the motor, causing the breaker to trip, before the internal overload. We have presumed the guy who condemmmed it, knew what he was doing.
    I do not believe the transport issue is that major for sealed scroll comp only

    I must admit to a bit of envy to you Brits where, regardless of your work or freetime fun, you can find a group of mates within a short distance. The caravan culture comes to mind as does the (sadly receding) pub culture.

    Tex

    getting back to your original problem

    It has dawned on me

    All these questions & researching

    Admit it, Come on I know you want to

    You Installed this compressor - didn't you ?

    And I bet you never checked the oil for any of the folowing

    pour point
    floc point
    chemical stability
    dielectric strength
    miscibility
    or viscosity

    Did you ?
