Saturday I had a service call for several freezers and coolers running warm. If it could be wrong then it was going to be. Check it out, this was over three hours long and I cut it down to 36 minutes. I edit all my videos to get to the point and no BS.

Im a little late to the party, so this comment may have already been made. To check the receiver level, get a map gas torch and heat up and down the side of the receiver. Run your hand across it, and wherever it gets piping hot, thats your liquid level. Also, a good way to confirm you're low on gas is to close a couple liquid ball valves at the rack. If the temp drops on the case that's running hot, you're low on gas.

You’re dead on with the circuit shut down 👍👍. I’ve tried that and it worked great. I haven’t been able to see a difference in the reciver level when they are as big as the ones are. It’s either because they are too warm or the metal has too much mass. Not sure?
@CallsignMayhem
@CallsignMayhem 2 күн бұрын
@HVACRSurvival I solely so supermarkets with some decent size, 800+lbs receivers and it works. Probably just need to run that torch on there a little longer. Usually I'll I'll torch one spot on the top of the receiver for about 5sec just to see what I should be expecting. And then run it up and down for Probably 30+seconds

Never a good way to keep oil off everything. I'm definitely getting that form a funnel. I'd usually grab a foil baking pan off the shelf, have the store buy it, and form something up but still oil ends up all over. Nice work.

You can always check the receiver level with a map gas torch on the side of the receiver. Apply some heat then use your finger starting at the bottom of the receiver and when you get from a cooler spot to the hot spot on the side of the vessel, that will be your receiver level. Works every time and is more reliable than any receiver level gage. From an old-timer supermarket refrigeration tech.

You might have more issues. It should pump down just like a normal system if you shut the liquid line after the drier or at each circuits. Usually i wait a lil and torch it and you can feel where the liquid ends with your finger. Then open the liquid line at 10-15% every few seconds

@HVACRSurvival wise words brother, been in there for just under 2yrs. They told me sky is the limit also. They said it takes about 5yrs apprenticeship for journeyman. I was hoping my 2yrs counted but, apparently it doesn't. I have the Uni EPA, Osha 30, H.E.A.T., R410a Certified and Basic Electrical. Out of all of these certs I'm assuming EPA is most important? Also I'm a big dude like 6'5 300lbs, pretty solid but big. Do you recommend doing residential first or try to get into a commercial gig?

I’ve seen people start in either division. It really depends what you want. I personally have always wanted to be better than average and to know more than most. I believe the more you know the more you’re worth. That’s not to sound arrogant it’s just my thoughts. Generally, everyone starts in residential but not everybody starts in Commercial, you’re gonna love one and hate the other or both like I do but I prefer the commercial over the residential just because it’s more rewarding to me but Refrigeration is also a whole another third division to learn.

Yeah, they look like small little car engines. Technically they’re 20 and 25 horse. Sometimes the little ones were like 14.

Seems to me that the store is losing most of their profits in the repairs needed to keep the systems running? Their electric bills must be huge. Thanks for a great video.

When it the oil switch trips is it because the oil is hot or because oil level is low?
@HVACRSurvival
@HVACRSurvival 4 ай бұрын
It trips because the oil pressure differential is too low.

Could you pull the compressor into a vacuum and use that to pull the oil into it rather than having to pump it in?
@HVACRSurvival
@HVACRSurvival 4 ай бұрын
You could but what are you gonna do about the moisture and air you pull in to it? You’ll still need to evacuate the compressor. The pumps actually pretty quick.

@@HVACRSurvival I would figure you have to pull the compressor down anyway, once you pull your oil in you let it pull until you’re below 500, Never worked on a rack system just spit balling. keep up the good work always enjoy your videos

It’s e2e with the site supervisor touch screen. Why? Just go E3 and give the store the ip and if there computer is hooked up to the store network no need for the screen

They did that to keep it very simple. Most people barely understand the basics of temperature let alone networking and the stock people will be able to read it without needing computer access. Times prior they used to just have a buzzer on the wall with a light that flashed at least now they’ll be able to see what zones actually acting up. I spoke with the other group that is doing the controls and they will be back in 2-3 weeks to finally finish. They had another remodel that they were stuck finishing before returning on this one. This was the only store they had. It wasn’t on any type of control system. All the other stores used to have com-troll and those got updated to Emerson.

They have nicer stores but this one is in a small country town that likely doesn’t pull in the revenue the other stores are.

It doesn't seem like you are just complaining, there are legitimate issues that should have already been addressed that make diagnosis more difficult. This means longer calls and more potential for misdiagnosis.
