5    Normal Phenomena

Not Troubles for Refrigerators 

 

 

In a domestic refrigerator, there is not only a complicated electric control 

 

system, but also a refrigerating system that is difficult to discern whether it 

 

is in a good working condition. Both the systems are related and affect   
each other. If a certain part of a refrigerator works abnormally .Its 

 

refrigerating efficiency will decrease ,operation properties will become 

 

unstable ,or even it cannot be used normally for those serious cases. 

 

Refrigerators are generally of larger volume ,once troubles appear ,to 

 

send them to a service department is really a tough thing ,if such is the 

 

case ,the user will always be in suspense ,sometimes ,normal phenomena 

 

will be erroneously regarded as troubles .Therefore ,before we deal with 

 

the topics of frequently occurring troubles of refrigerators and their 

 

remedies ,we should firstly give a brief account of some normal 

 

phenomena which are not troubles .In case any one of such phenomena 

 

occurs ,there is no need to worry about it ,and the user can use it at total 

 

ease . 

 

1).When the compressor of a refrigerator has just stopped running ,a 

 

rumbling sound can be heard from inside its evaporator .This is a sound 

 

caused by the flowing of refrigerant in the evaporator tubing .Because the 

 

pressure difference is still greater after the compressor has just stopped 

 

running ,the refrigerant will flow for a certain time , therefore ,this sound is a 

 

normal phenomenon. 

 

2).A click sound can often be heard from the refrigerator .This is a 

 

normal sound produced by the pull-in or release of the armature of a 

 

current deadweight start relay when starting the compressor .The 

 

compressor motor will produce a slight and uniform sound while it is 

 

running .This sound is not easy to be heard in the daytime ,but of course it 

 

can be heard distinctly at night. 

 

3).The compressor consists of an electric motor and a compressing 

 

apparatus .During its normal operatio ,the motor's stator core and 

 

windings will rise to a temperature in the range of 100

°

C~110

°

C ,and the 

 

temperature of the piston and cylinder of the compressing mechanism can 

 

also reach as above 100

°

C due to the heat produced when compressing 

 

refrigerant .Most of the heat radiates to the air through the compressor 

 

casing ,therefore ,its casing is generally at a temperature between 85

°

C ~90

°

C

 

,it is very hot ,particularly in summer when the ambient temperature is   

higher .All these are normal phenomena .   

4).For the direct cooling refrigerator ,a kind of irregular crack sound can   

be often heard when the compressor is running for a certain period of time   
or has just stopped its running .This sound is caused by the stress relief   
due to expansion and contraction when temperature changes ,and will not   

affect the normal application of refrigerator .
