Why your Traulsen refrigerated display case is not cooling
When a Traulsen refrigerated display case is not cooling, here's what you'll usually notice: unit runs but temperature stays warm — usually a compressor, condenser, or refrigerant issue. The usual culprit is defrost fault icing over the evaporator. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Worn door gaskets bleeding cold air
- Failed compressor or start relay
- Faulty temperature control board
- Refrigerant leak in the sealed system
- Defrost fault icing over the evaporator
Known Traulsen refrigerated display case weak points
- door hinge and gasket wear on heavy stainless doors
- evaporator icing and defrost heater/timer failures
- electronic controller (Intela-Traul/legacy) faults
- condenser fan motor and dirty condenser causing temperature rise
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: listen for the compressor running at all, and make sure nothing is blocking airflow around the back or bottom vents. Also, confirm the refrigerated display case has power, the thermostat is actually set cold, and the condenser coils or vents aren't blocked by dust or stored items. If that doesn't fix it, not-cooling that keeps recurring after the coils are clean usually means the sealed system has lost its charge, and recharging it needs recovery equipment and an experienced technician.
