There are many different types of devices called compressors and pumps. In general, pumps move fluid while compressors create pressure. Pumps are usually associated with liquids while compressors are associated with gasses. In the end it is just language, and there are plenty of examples contradicting both those rules of thumb.

Where must a suction-line drier be placed in a heat pump?
In a heat pump system, the suction-line drier should be placed on the suction line, typically between the evaporator and the compressor. This location allows the drier to effectively remove moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant before it enters the compressor, protecting the compressor and ensuring efficient operation. Proper placement is crucial for maintaining system performance and longevity.

What is the difference between reciprocating pump and reciprocating compressor?
Though these words may be used interchangeably, there is a difference. A pump is a motor designed to move fluids (whether gas or liquid). A compressor is a kind of pump that has a motor that forces air molecules closer together to pack more matter in a smaller volume. Gases are the only things that are compressable where pumps deal more with liquids (mainly water) although there are air pumps. More.. Pumps are used to move liquids of all kinds not just water. They can be driven by electric motors, steam turbines, wind power etc. Compressors move gasses.
