Bitzer OS85 series gasket problem
Have a problem with the gasket at oil inlet from the oil separator blowing out and loosing oil and refrigerant. This is the second time since new last spring. Is there a known problem with their gaskets. One machine blew the gasket out today and another compressor has a gasket that looks like it is about to go. This machine was started up after sitting since november outside, not in a building. There are 4 identical compressors. Could sitting outside all winter have a negative effect on gaskets? Weather was around 13deg C when started. Oil heaters work, new oil filters installed and new oil. Ideas much appreciated.
