Which Compressor is usually used in air conditioners?

hermetically sealed reciprocating compressor .


What is an hermetic compressor?

a fully welded or serviceableIn hermetically sealed compressor, the compressor and the motor are enclosed in the welded steel casing and the two are connected by a common shaft. This makes the whole compressor and the motor a single compact and portable unit that can be handled easily. The hermetically sealed compressor is very different from the traditional open type of compressors in which the compressor and the motor are different entities and the compressor is connected to the motor by coupling or belt.Construction of the Hermetically Sealed Reciprocating CompressorIn hermetically sealed compressor, in one side of the enclosed casing the various parts of the compressor like cylinder, piston, connecting rod and the crankshaft are located. If it is a multi-cylinder compressor, there are more than two cylinders inside the casing. On the other side of the casing is the electric winding inside which the shaft of the motor rotates. This motor can be single speed or multi-speed motor. In hermetically sealed compressors the crankshaft of the reciprocating compressor and the rotating shaft of the motor are common. The rotating shaft of the motor extends beyond the motor and forms the crankshaft of the hermetically sealed reciprocating compressor.All these parts of the hermetically sealed compressor are assembled and enclosed in a strong and rigid casing made up of welded steel shell. The steel shell comprises of two half rounded steel bodies that are welded together to form the casing for the hermetically sealed compressor. In some cases the two halves of the shell can be bolted together instead of welding, which permits easy opening of the casing in case of compressor burnout.The hermetically sealed compressors have inbuilt lubrication system for the lubrication of the piston and cylinder and crankshaft. The lubricant also acts the coolant for the piston and cylinder. Additionally, the cool suction refrigerant also offers cooling effect. Externally, the casing has refrigerant suction and discharge connections that are connected to the evaporator and condenser respectively. There is also socket for the electrical connection.The typical condenser unit with the hermetically sealed compressor is shown in above fig. Such condenser units are called as hermetic condenser units. In the other image various parts of hermetically sealed multi-cylinder reciprocating compressor are shown.Types of Hermetic CompressorsOne of the most popular types of the hermetically sealed compressors are the reciprocating compressors. They were the first to be used as the hermetically sealed compressors are still being used widely. These days the vane type of rotary compressor has become more popular. It is considered that the rotary type of hermetically sealed compressor consumes less electricity, makes lesser noise, requires lesser maintenance, and is cheaper than the reciprocating type of hermetically sealed compressor. This is because the rotary compressors has less frictional parts and have only a rotor. The centrifugal types of hermetically sealed compressor are used for the large units.

Should we use a hermitically sealed gas compressor for helium?

No, a semi-hermetically sealed gas compressor is fine. The only difference between hermetically sealed and semi-hermetically sealed is that the semi is made of two pieces, and so can be opened up if a part breaks and needs to be replaced. Hermetically sealed compressors are one solid piece, and so must be completely replaced if they break. From a business stand point, the semi-hermetically sealed is probably best.


How do you check if a compressor motor is functional without turning it on?

There are several parts of the device that can be tested separately, but in general, the only way to truly know if a compressor is working would be to finally just turn it on.You could test the electrical resistance of the motor windings to make certain that there is no open circuit.You could test the capacitor of a Cap Start motor.You could test the limit switch to make certain that it would turn the compressor on and off at the appropriate times.You could turn the compressor shaft by hand to determine if the internal components are functioning as expected.You could even disassemble the compressor head to determine if the reed valves are intact.Since the question didn't specify whether this was a sealed compressor or a conventional compressor it should be pointed out that a sealed compressor is... sealed. You can't get to any serviceable parts so the compressor either works or it doesn't; the only way to determine functionality is to turn it on.

Where do you put the oil in the home AC compressor?

The compressors that come with central Ac systems are hermetically sealed and have oil inside. There is no need to add oil. If you are replacing the compressor then flush the line set first then replace, also install a filter drier.

How do you repair ac compressor for 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

The AC compressor on a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee can be repaired by purchasing a new unit or by sending the existing unit off for repairs. These are sealed units which do not have user serviceable parts beyond the outer seals.
