Low temperatures in winter are mainly caused by the properties of the fluid, and these fluid properties represent a type of mechanical-thermodynamic failure characterized by temperature differences, pressure abnormalities, and insufficient exhaust volume. The main causes of failures are problems with components such as the intake filter, piston rings, valves, and cooling water circuits; such issues can be diagnosed using parameter analysis.

After shutting down the machine in winter without draining the cooling water from the cylinders and cylinder heads, the cooling water freezes and can rupture the cylinders and cylinder heads, causing the piston rods to break

1. The oil pressure at the pump shaft is too low, preventing the standby pump from stopping. 2. Depending on the properties of the medium, liquid may be present in the liquid separation tank at the high-pressure outlet.

Pipeline freezing and blockages are caused by excessive viscosity of the lubricating oil, as well as insufficient lubrication circulation, which leads to a decline in lubrication levels; instruments and control valves also suffer from malfunctioning or inaccurate functioning due to freezing. The preparation time required to get the backup cooling unit ready for operation needs to be increased

In winter, low temperatures can easily cause issues such as abnormal temperature differences, pressure abnormalities, and insufficient exhaust volume in reciprocating compressors. The main reason is failures in components such as the intake filter, piston rings, valves, and cooling water circuits.

Pipeline freezing and blockage are caused by excessive viscosity of the lubricating oil and insufficient lubrication circulation, which leads to a decline in lubrication; instruments and control valves are affected by freezing and thus become distorted or stop functioning; The preparation time for starting the backup chiller when it is in standby mode needs to be extended. Pay attention to the appropriate use of low-temperature lubricants, especially for outdoor units in cold regions, where extra care is required

Compressed gas is prone to carrying liquid; a drop in oil temperature increases viscosity, which affects the lubrication of the bearing shells
