Ifin the refrigerantsystemaquantity

greaterthanthatindicated,the
excessgas doesnotterminateits
expansioninthe evaporatorbut
proceedsintothe returntube.
The refrigerantsystemis humid
when thereisa smallpercentageof
waterpresent,which,not completely
retainedbythe dehydratorfilter,
entersintocirculationwith the
Freon®and freezesatthe capillary
exitinthe evaporator.
There isair in the refrigerating
systemwhenduring thefillingphase
vacuumis not effectedorit isnot
adequatelydone.
Impuritiescontainedin the Freon@
or inthecomponentsofthe
refrigerationsystem before
assemblyand not retainedbythe
filter can obstructthecapillary.
Incaseof shortcircuit,the
breakdownisdue to the electric
winding.Ifblocked,thereis a
mechanicalfailurein themotor-
compressor.
Inthiscasethere is a mechanical
failurein the diaphramvalveswhich
remainingcontinuallyopen, donot
permitthe compressortooperate.
Consequenteiy,Freon®does not

The causeof the excessivenoiseis
normallytobe soughtforin a

rarelyin the unhookingofone of the
