What size compressor motor would a domestic refrigerator have?
No
How many horsepower are in a refrigerator compressor motor?
Depends on refrigerator. Some are 1/25 others could be 1/40, still others could be higher. There is a data plate on the compressor that will tell you the HP.
Why you t is warmer when the door of refrigerator is open?
Because the motor running the compressor is generating more heat than the compressor is cooling. Once you close the door the space being cooled is smaller and the compressor can keep up and overcome that heat from the motor.
How is it harder to fix a built in refrigerator as opposed to a regular refrigerator?
You'll want to make sure to take caution and unplug your refrigerator, and discharge the capacitor in the motor/compressor. A fridge and freezer consist of two basic components, a condensor coil and an evaporator coil. A coolant is circulated through these coils by a motor and compressor. You can test and replace each of these components.
Why do the bulbs dim when the refrigerator turns on?
The refrigerator has a motor load within it. When the refrigerator starts it draws a high current. This high starting current draws the voltage down until the refrigerator's motor (compressor) gets up to speed. A refrigerator is an appliance that should be on a dedicated circuit. This means that no other electrical devices should be connected to the refrigerators circuit. If the lights are dimming, then the refrigerator is on the same circuit as the lights.
Do you need two jumpers from your outdoor condensor compressor to the start capacitor if you only have one and does it need 220 or 120 if it is a 40mfd rated for 330v?
Do you have a dual capacitor that starts both the compressor and the fan motor? You need 230V to power the compressor. You should have one wire from the capacitor going from the start terminal on the compressor and one going from the common terminal to common on the capacitor.
How does power pass through compressor to inside motor?
. Through a terminal box with three motor terminals one for the run winding and one for the start winding and one for the common line to the run and start windings
My refrigerator sounds like it is trying to kick on over and over and then eventually it does kick on what could be wrong?
There is a small relay on the compressor of every refrigerator. This relay only closes when the compressor is starting, and opens as soon as the motor comes up to speed. As an experienced refrigeration technician, I would say that the problem definitely lies in that relay.
Does a refrigerator have a gear?
Yes, a refrigerator does have gears, but not in the traditional sense that you might be thinking of. Refrigerators use a compressor to cool the air inside them, and this compressor does have a motor with gears. These gears help to regulate and control the speed of the compressor, ensuring that it runs smoothly and efficiently. However, unlike in a car or a bicycle, these gears are not something that you can see or interact with on a day-to-day basis. They are tucked away inside the motor, quietly doing their job to keep your food nice and cool. So while it's true that a refrigerator has gears, they're not something that you need to worry about or pay much attention to.
Even after changing the start relay and the capacitor what would keep a Frigidaire refrigerator compressor from starting and just buzz?
Very possible that the start winding of the compressor motor is partially shorted. A grounded winding would cause a breaker to trip, however, a shorted start winding would not produce enough torque to turn the compressor and the run winding would not kick in resulting in the buzzing to stop in about 5 - 10 seconds (start winding timing out). Change the compressor motor or get a new refrigerator, depending on cost factors. Call a professional for compressor replacement unless you want a huge headache. Gary Yingling - Avon Lake, Ohio
If you have given to identify the six terminals of 3 phase motor?
simply connecting voltmeter. If it shows any reading than it will the two terminal of same phase.
My refrigerator was not cooling. I've replaced a brand new condenser fan motor and both the fans are?
My refrigerator was not cooling. I've replaced a brand new condenser fan motor and both the fans are working fine. Tech suggested that it might be lown on freon.Can you tell me how can we figure out whether it is low on freon? Also, what else might be a problem. Compressor seems to be working fine. I've SAMSUNG refrigerator
