    • Fewer moving parts

    • Smoother operation

    • Less vibration

  • Durable and Reliable
    Often lasts longer under proper maintenance compared to traditional reciprocating compressors.



Signs of bad A/C Scroll Compressor ZP38K5E-TFD-800

 

1. Weak or No Cooling

  • Air from the vents is warm or not as cold as it should be.

  • Could be caused by insufficient compression or refrigerant flow.

2. Strange Noises

  • Grinding, rattling, or squealing noises from the compressor.

  • Scroll compressors are usually quiet; noise often indicates internal damage.

3. Compressor Clutch Not Engaging (if equipped)

  • On some systems, the compressor has an electromagnetic clutch that may fail or refuse to engage.

  • Could also indicate electrical issues or low refrigerant, but can be caused by the compressor itself.

4. A/C System Trips or Cycles On/Off

  • The system may turn off and on frequently due to pressure irregularities caused by a failing scroll compressor.

5. Refrigerant Leaks

  • Leaks often occur at seals of the compressor.

  • Oil stains around the compressor may indicate a refrigerant leak.

6. High Cabin Temperature in Hot Weather

  • The system cannot maintain the desired temperature under load.

7. Burnt Smell

  • Internal mechanical failure or overheating of the compressor may produce a burnt smell.
