    MHI Srk40



    Hello guys, just fitted another SRK40, was having a bad day, nothing going right, run the unit, went to check the condenser and found it to be very noisy possibly pipes inside unit rubbing. I took the front cover off the unit and found the compressor hanging in mid-air off of its mountings The washer they use for the compressor mounts is actually smaller than the holes on the foot of the compressor So if they have a little bit of rough handling during transport the pot could easily jump off its mounting. This is the second one I have come across - the other one being my own one at home I'll be checking every one I fit from now on, especially the ones that are to be mounted high up on a wall.

    We all have 100% hindsight Andy so here goes....

    I suppose the thing to do now is to strip and check each unit before accepting delivery. Just tel the man from DHL to hand on while you get your tools out and would he mind lifting the box a bit higher for you
