The compressor is the heart of an air-cooled chiller, responsible for circulating refrigerant, regulating pressure, and maintaining optimal cooling performance. When a compressor malfunctions, it can lead to reduced efficiency, higher energy costs, system failures, and operational downtime. EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd provides expert troubleshooting and repair services to diagnose and resolve compressor issues, ensuring optimal performance and extended equipment lifespan.
