I can hardly wait to tear down the next compressor I replace. Great videos.

Please send let us know what caused that next failure.

Great video. Nice to see the inner workings of a scroll
Keep the vids coming, lots of great knowledge

[@RefrigerationMentor]

Thank you. I appreciate the support.

[@Jeff-Lawrence]

Fantastic video.
Just long enough to really learn something but not overkill
Keep rocking it

Thank you Jeff

Love your channel Trevor, great information.
By the way, I am in Australia and the compressors here don't scan into Copeland mobile.

[@RefrigerationMentor]

Scott thank you so much. Yeah Copeland Mobile scan does not work everywhere yet but it will. They are continuing to develop the app. I am excited to make it back to Australia and share some of my knowledge.

Hi Trevor was hoping you could shed some light on this,
I've got a few Copeland ZP154KCE-TED-462 compressors in systems i am commissioning. The units they are in contain 12.5kg refrigerant, the AE bulletin states that if charge exceeds charge limit (8.2kg) then a crankcase heater must be installed regardless of system configuration, but no crankcase heaters are installed. Would there be any reason why the manufacturer has done this and would the compressor warranty still be valid?
thanks buddy.

[@RefrigerationMentor]

Great question. I would bring this up with the manufacture of the equipment. They may have missed this or may not know this. I would love to know what they say.

[@larkhill2119]

It would seem simple enough to have an alarm and shutdown when the system detects low or reducing subcooling. Would people be interested in a kit to protect the compressor?

[@RefrigerationMentor]

Yes there are many devices out there now to protect against low superheat as well as low subcooling.

100 procent its expansion valve thats cause that. When a defect expansion valve dont close the liquid going in to compressor and cause that. The owner should have notice that the pump not heating the house as usual for a time.
