Motor rewinds and replacement
Rewinding and replacement of motors and stators in refrigeration and air conditioning compressors, with the electrical testing to prove the result.
A burnt-out winding does not have to mean a new compressor. Where the mechanical end is sound, a rewind or a stator replacement returns the unit to service — and the insulation and electrical testing afterwards is what tells you whether it will stay there.
What's included
- Compressor motor rewinding
- Stator replacement
- Motor replacement with new motors
- Electrical and insulation testing
When you'd call us for this
- A winding has failed on a large semi-hermetic screw and the replacement cost of the whole compressor has stopped the job dead.
- Insulation resistance readings have been drifting down on a unit for months and the client wants to plan the work rather than wait for the failure.
- A motor burn has contaminated the system and you need the compressor stripped, cleaned and rewound rather than patched.
What we need from you
- Compressor make
- Model and serial number
- Application — cold room, freezer room, process cooling, chiller, air conditioning, blast freezer
- Fault symptoms — what it is doing, what tripped, what you have already checked
- Site access — plant room location, floor level, door and stair widths, whether a crane or gantry is needed, site induction requirements
Photos of the nameplate and the plant room save a site visit.
