STUDIES AND RESEARCH ON MAINTENANCE OF REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT

Abstract

Bibliographical studies carried out for the maintenance of refrigeration equipment have an important role both in industrial and domestic use. Refrigeration equipment does not have the same indices of exploitation after a certain number of hours, thus, their technical condition is worsening due to multiple causes. It thus occurs the need to conduct maintenance (corrective or preventive) by which the equipment is restored during a well-defined time. Maintenance reduces equipment stagnation and Freon pollution. The purpose of this paper is to study and deepen the knowledge of the types of maintenance used in cooling devices, together with the reliable ones, to extend the life of refrigeration equipment produced or enhance its operating efficiency.

Keywords: maintenance, refrigeration equipment, technical status, reliability.
