Air-Cooled Chiller Compressor Vibration Repair – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing compressor vibration issues in air-cooled chillers, helping you eliminate abnormal movement that can lead to mechanical wear, reduced efficiency, and eventual compressor failure. Excessive or irregular vibration is often a symptom of deeper problems—such as misalignment, imbalance, bearing wear, or mounting issues—and requires expert attention to ensure reliable chiller operation.

Why Compressor Vibration Repair Is Important

  • Prevents damage to internal compressor components

  • Reduces noise, energy waste, and system inefficiency

  • Increases compressor lifespan and operational safety

  • Minimizes risk of refrigerant leaks, oil line failure, or structural fatigue

  • Supports smooth and stable chiller performance

Common Causes of Compressor Vibration

  • Imbalance in rotating parts like the crankshaft or rotor

  • Misalignment between the motor and compressor

  • Worn or damaged bearings

  • Loose or degraded mounting bolts and vibration isolators

  • Refrigerant slugging or hydraulic shock

  • Electrical faults causing motor instability

Signs Your Compressor Has Vibration Issues

  • Noticeable rattling or shaking during operation

  • Unusual noise from the compressor housing

  • Frequent tripping of vibration protection or overload sensors

  • Oil leaks near valves or connections

  • Increased wear on couplings, seals, or lines

Our Compressor Vibration Repair Process

Vibration Diagnosis
We use advanced tools including triaxial vibration sensors and FFT analysis to measure amplitude, frequency, and root cause.

Mechanical Inspection
We inspect all critical components:

  • Bearings and shaft condition

  • Couplings and internal clearances

  • Mounting brackets and vibration isolators

Corrective Repairs
Depending on the diagnosis, we perform:

  • Rebalancing of rotating components

  • Bearing replacement or lubrication

  • Realignment of motor and compressor shaft

  • Replacement of damaged vibration pads or mounts

  • Electrical stabilization if motor instability is detected

Post-Repair Testing
Once repaired, we verify:

  • Acceptable vibration levels within OEM limits

  • Quiet and smooth compressor start-up and operation

  • Stability during load changes and continuous cycling

Benefits of Compressor Vibration Repair

  • Restores quiet, stable compressor function

  • Reduces wear and tear on the entire chiller system

  • Improves efficiency and energy usage

  • Prevents costly mechanical failures

  • Supports long-term equipment reliability
