Excessive vibration in an air-cooled chiller compressor can indicate mechanical imbalance, misalignment, worn components, or operational inefficiencies. If left unchecked, vibration-related issues can lead to bearing failure, refrigerant leaks, electrical malfunctions, and increased energy consumption. EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd provides expert vibration troubleshooting for air-cooled chillers, ensuring smooth operation, reduced wear, and extended equipment lifespan.
Our ISO-certified chiller troubleshooting services cater to:
Industrial & Manufacturing Facilities
Commercial Buildings (Offices, Malls, Hotels, Hospitals)
