    Carrier 30XA Oil Filters



    Can anyone suggest why we have had to change 3 oil filters in 2 weeks on both of the compressors of our machine.
    We are running at -12C and using Coolflow LV30 as the coolant

    OK, why did you have to change the oil filters, what prompted that action?

    We can't see your machine from here and don't know the running conditions or states.

    The LV30 is the secondary refrigerant and is not connected with the oil in the primary side.

    There is a factory option for -12c using ethylene glycol, -10c to +55c is ambient i think
