Temperature increasing

On the log chart there are two separate incidents of temperature increasing and decreasing over an 8 hr period. Starting at -40 rising to 0 and decreasing back to -40. The unit is a Jewett(now Thermo Scientific)BPL 13 freezer. Any help with this issue would be great.

Can you please specify at what set point was the refrigerator set ? If it was 0 ( which I doubt somebody could have done that ) , then I would suspect a bad compressor rely that could be Jammed in away that doesn't cut off the power to the compressor as it reaches the set point ! This is could be harmful and will lead to overloading the compressor to a point where you'll have to replace it .
