Re: Bitzer gasket
If it's the smallest piece on the gasket between LP and HP, then it's many times due to pumping of non compressibles (oil or refrigerant) which occurs sudden for some reason.
The Prestcold's and older DWM's had many times the same failure.It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Re: Bitzer gasket
Hi I have a carlye compressor that was tripping on oil pressure,also the discharge from the compressor was only warm.I removed one of the head to find the gasket between the head and valve plate to be very brittle and broken.I changed the valve plates and gaskets and the compressor work well for about 24 hrs but now it trips on oil every 2 hours.Would this be for the same reason.
Regards Bernard

Re: Bitzer gasket
Normally if you will have broken gasket at the discharge is it is pumping liquid refrigerant instead of gas or oil. did you check your valve plates? or you have tx valve into the unit which is flooded so liquid is coming back to the compressor.
