The major difference between a 2-stage heat pump and single stage is the run time on 1st stage, especially for the a/c. On 1st stage, the compressor can put out 1/2 to 2/3 of its rated capacity and is more efficient producing btu's than when running full out on 2nd stage. The more the system runs on 1st stage, the lower the operating costs
It's the speed at which, if exceeded, the compressor will fail.
Why is RPM (speed) so important to the life of a compressor

This type of compressor uses a special drive to control The speed of the unit. Also, saves more energy than a fixed speed equivalent.
Turndown: The allowable operating range for the centrifugal compressor between the design point and the surge line at any given speed for a fixed compressor head.

self sustaining speed is output of a turbine= input into compressor
most likely, the ac compressor is not functioning properly. when compressor's speed sensor is not the same with engine speed the ecu will shut off power to compressor. time for new compressor.
increase drive pulley size
Capacity control is the process by which the flow of the discharged gas from the compressor is controlled. This can be accomplished by several method. 1. Controlling the speed of the compressor. 2. Controlling the clearance of the compressor. 3. Throttling the suction valve. 4. Suction valve unloader.
if your uing air tools on the compressor then you will put one or two drops directly into the inlet where you connect the compressor hose
The scroll compressor is one that has spirals rotating into each other. The screw compressor is where two spirals are rotating in opposite directions.
