Why would the compressor be on when the inside temperature is lower than the thermostat setting?
The compressor may be on if there is a malfunction in the thermostat or temperature sensor, causing it to not accurately detect the temperature. Alternatively, there could be an issue with the compressor itself, such as a faulty relay or pressure switch, that is causing it to run continuously. It's recommended to have a professional technician diagnose and resolve the issue.
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
What would happen if the container did not have a pressure realise valve?
If a container does not have a pressure relief valve, the pressure inside the container can build up to dangerous levels. This can lead to the container bursting or exploding, causing damage to its surroundings and posing a significant safety risk. Pressure relief valves are crucial in maintaining safe operating conditions by releasing excess pressure before it reaches hazardous levels.
What should you do if your residential AC outside unit fan will come on and the compressor will only come on for a second and then shut off and the unit is not throwing a breaker?
Call an HVAC repairman. You're probably low on freon and a protection system is keeping the compressor from burning up. Sounds like to me it is a protection device. Probably an internal overload on the compressor. Have you checked the outside coils they may be blocked with dirt? This would cause the compressor to go out on overload.
What would happen if the container did not have a pressure-release valve?
Well, darling, without a pressure-release valve, that container would turn into a ticking time bomb ready to explode and make a mess everywhere. Pressure would build up inside like a volcano ready to blow its top, causing potential damage or injury. So, do yourself a favor and make sure that pressure-release valve is in place before things get out of hand.
If a compressor has faulty valves the head pressure?
the pressure would be low
How would you prove a bad suction reed in a compressor?
To prove a bad suction reed in a compressor, you would need to do a pressure test. You can isolate the compressor and check for pressure drop in the suction line. A significant pressure drop would indicate a faulty suction reed. Additionally, you can inspect the reed valve for visible signs of damage or wear.
Why would the air conditioning compressor on a 1999 Chevy Cavalier not come on?
Low on freon, faulty pressure switch, faulty clutch. Jumper the low pressure switch with a paperclip (can running, AC on), if the clutch cycles, it's either low on freon, or the low pressure switch is bad.
Why do some positive displacement compressors have unloader valves?
A positive displacement (reciprocating) compressor has at least 4 valves on each cylinder. 2 intakes and 2 exhaust valves. Unloader valves on these compressors close the intake valves on these compressors so that they do not continue to draw air (or gas) into the system when the operating pressure of the system is reached. These unloaders are typical pressure switch controlled solenoids that hold the valves shut until released. They prevent overpressurizing the system which would result in safety valves being activated or damage to the system. With the intakes shut no additional air is added to the system and the compressor continues running unloaded, alternately compressing and uncompressing the air remaining in the cylinders. A positive displacement (screw) compressor unloader valve operates similarly, shutting off the intake air to prevent overpressurizing the system. A centrifugal compressor does not require the unloader valve as it will not continue building pressure beyond its rated capacity.
Why would you use 3 port valves on fire system riser pressure indicators?

How do you overhaul marine air compressor?
To overhaul a marine air compressor, you would first remove and replace hoses and fittings that are cracked or damaged. Valves can be checked for leakage and replaced when damaged.
What would cause you to have low fuel pressure on a 1991 Chevy S10 blazer?
A plugged up fuel filter, a faulty fuel pressure regulator or a faulty fuel pump.

A refrigerator with a freon restriction would have what symptoms?
High head pressure; low suction pressure; overheated compressor
What would cause the AC compressor of a 2005 Toyota Tacoma not to turn on besides a fuse?
Check the Freon pressure first. The AC compressor will not turn on if the Freon pressure is too low.
Where can one buy an air compressor pressure switch?
An air compressor pressure switch can be bought at your local electronics store, such as Best Buy. An agent would be happy to direct you to a purchase.
Have 1999 Dodge Ram 5.2. AC cuts out at high engine rpm. Compressor replaced. What could this be?
Possibly a faulty high pressure switch. It would help to know exactly what it's doing, and also to measure the system pressures, as there could be a blockage in the system which is causing the pressure to read excessively.
