THE RUBBER PIPE BURSTS, AFTER SOME TIME. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO LEAKAGE OR DEFECT IN THE PIPE. AS SOON AS THE PIPE BURSTS, IT AUTOMATICALLY DAMAGES THE COMPRESSOR. WHAT IS THE SOLUTION

Hi parvez,

When pressure is lost, the compressor would not work.
You need to replace the pipe and recharge the system to get it running.

Bursting of pressure pipes are sometimes caused by extreme pressure due to overheating of the system. Check if the radiator and condenser fans are working.
