Abstract:
The multi-compressor system has a plurality of parallelly coupled compressors; inlet connection lines each connected to a refrigerant suction fitting of a respective compressor; outlet connection lines each connected to a refrigerant discharge fitting of a respective compressor; a common oil balancing line and balancing connection lines each connecting the common oil balancing line to an oil balancing connection of a respective compressor; and spring-loaded normally-open valves each being arranged within a respective balancing connection line or within an oil balancing connection of a respective compressor and each being configured to close when a pressure difference between a pressure prevailing in the low pressure volume of the respective compressor and a pressure prevailing in the common oil balancing line reaches a predetermined value.
Abstract:
A scroll compressor including a hermetic casing provided with a suction inlet; a compression unit; a drive shaft configured to drive an orbiting scroll of the compression unit in an orbital movement; an electric motor coupled to the drive shaft; an oil sump; a refrigerant guiding device configured to force a main part of a refrigerant, entering the scroll compressor through the suction inlet, to flow downwardly through the electric motor, before reaching the compression unit; and an oil sump fairing arranged between a lower end of the electric motor and a free surface of oil stored in the oil sump, the oil sump fairing being configured to prevent a refrigerant flow, emerging from the lower end of the electric motor, to directly impact the free surface of the oil stored in the oil sump.
Abstract:
A method for managing oil in a running multi-compressor refrigeration system including a controller and a multi-compressor device, includes monitoring an oil level in the oil sump of each compressor through the respective oil level detection device; detecting that a lack of oil situation occurs in a running compressor, if the oil level in said running compressor reaches a predetermined threshold condition; performing an oil managing action if a lack of oil situation is detected for a running compressor, the oil managing action being based on a changing of ON/OFF configurations of the compressors in the multi-compressor device and including performing an oil balancing action, if more than a half of the total number of compressors are running, or performing an oil returning action, if a half or less of the total number of compressors are running.
