In today’s video I visit a customer that complained of nothing working. I found that it had tripped a breaker, later isolated problem to compressor, and performed an acid test. #hvac #hvactech #hvactechnician #hvaclife #fieldpiece #SC680 #hvacguy #ruud #compressor #acid

If you flush it with rx11 please document the whole thing and show us how you do it. If you just use a filter dryer then let us know if you follow up after a few days to check for acid levels. I'm looking forward to your next video on this

120 volts / 14 meg ohms = 8 micro amps. Maybe a ground fault interrupter, but not a regular breaker.

ouch, i hate seeing compressors fail on units under 10 years old. That looks like a rheem high-static unit which is already built for a high static pressure. Makes you wonder what caused the failure, especially with the high acid volume. You know it shouldnt be a locked rotor, or else you wouldnt get a positive acid reading at the valve. I've seen the condenser coils leak on that particular model, in the front, about a foot up from the bottom and around a foot from the right side. Good luck with the repair brother!

If it’s a arc fault breaker it can trip from a loose wire or corroded wires.

14 Mega ohms enough to trip a breaker? That's 0.017 milliamps. Am I misunderstanding something here?
@SupremeRuleroftheWorld
@SupremeRuleroftheWorld 2 года назад
resistance takes an nosedive when a compressor heats up. it can easely drop into the tens of kohms wich will/should trip it. having megohms on a cold compressor is a warning that something is up.
@HVACGUY
@HVACGUY 2 года назад
@@SupremeRuleroftheWorld plus, I’m not using a megger. I don’t think this uses anymore than 5-10 volts to check for ohms to ground.
@walterskelton411
@walterskelton411 2 года назад
@@HVACGUY Thank you both for the replies. I think I now understand, it's not really the value of the resistance (in that instance) it's the fact that it's present at all. (and I know that nothing is a perfect insulator)
@joehead1294
@joehead1294 2 года назад
Should be no conductivity to the shell using a multimeter. Not really an ohm's law kind of thing which you may be thinking about.
@SupremeRuleroftheWorld
@SupremeRuleroftheWorld 2 года назад
@@walterskelton411 yes, the presence is the trigger, not the actual number. your multimeter only checks at sub 10 volts (as stated) so on 240 volt it would certainly pop the breaker.

What the heck is going on with Ruud/Rheem quality? Curtis, you are working on a bunch of broken Ruud/Rheem units, some are your own recent installs (warranty work...) Several other HVAC RU-vidrs also seem to have a lot of broken Ruud/Rheem units. 6 year compressor life on a package unit? Not good. That thing was sealed from the factory so you can't blame it on previous contamination in a split system. In the "good old days" Rheem was known as a decent midrange brand. Daikin seems to have invested in Goodman, they are not the junk they used to be. So what's up with Ruud/Rheem?
@chelenjna1
@chelenjna1 2 года назад
With package unit being an all in one system, it has to be ductwork/air filter issues.
@jericosha2842
@jericosha2842 2 года назад
I worked for a rheem dealer/installer and I really like their units. Easy to work on, repairs are generally easier, and they seem to work quite well. But I saw a lot of the same recurring issues. Manufacturer defects, bad braze joints, zip ties pulled to tight and yanking off wire harness, bad/shorted contactors, weird TXV problems, EEV thermistor failures on high SEER units, failed compressors, ECM motors failing within months/couple years, etc. It was enough to keep me busy. Unfortunate, because they are pretty slick.
