Which risk increases when a hermetic compressor in an industrial chiller overheats?

💡 Explanation

Refrigerant oil breakdown risk increases because increased temperatures accelerate the oil's thermal cracking process. This thermal decomposition decreases lubrication performance therefore causing compressor damage, rather than pressure changes or efficiency losses that arise from other system imbalances.
