1. Operating Principle of Scroll Compressor

Benefited from rapid development of precision machining process, more and more positive
displacement compressors evolved into rotary type for better efficiency and lower vibration and
noise. As rotary type has distinctively higher efficiency, it is spreading out world-wide, and its
application is expanding quickly. For instance, reciprocating type (over 40 USRT) has been
replaced by screw type, and the applications of scroll refrigerant compressors boomed as well.

Operating Principle of Scroll Compressor:

The scroll compressor consists of two mating involute scrolls as the diagram shown, which
describes the compression process. One scroll is fixed in place (Stationary Scroll), and the other
scroll orbits within this fixed scroll. (Orbiting Scroll)

Stationary Scroll
Orbiting Scroll

Scroll compressor design is based on the principle of involutes or scrolls which revolve around
each other in a “rolling” motion. By reducing the need for hydrodynamic lubrication that is
required to reduce friction at internal contact points, the scroll compressor provides an inherently
smooth operation and improves thermodynamic efficiency.

The compressor is the “engine” inside HVAC system, and how it operates plays an important role
in determining the effectiveness and efficiency of the system as a whole. The main benefits of
the scroll compressor are the quieter, smoother and more efficient operation along with greater
reliability and durability.

Scroll compression cycle can be illustrated as following:

1. Suction
When compressor starts operating, at certain angle the maximum suction
chamber formed between orbiting and fixed scrolls, and suction stage
starts with the suction chamber connected with low pressure side in system.
Intake volume of compressor is calculated by the maximum geometric
space formed.

2. Initial Compression
After suction, compression chamber of scroll sealed and separated from
low pressure side completely, orbiting scroll keeps revolving around
stationary scroll and continues to compress the chamber smoothly, which
means working fluid proceeds to be compressed continuously.

3. 4. Intermediate Compression
There are many advantages for the scroll
compressor such as less leakage, smooth
discharge etc. Refrigerant is compressed
progressively in the crescent-shape pockets
formed between two scrolls. Within commercial
positive displacement compressors, scroll type has
the best compression efficiency.

5. Discharge
When the refrigerant pressure achieves target level, the chamber will
be induced into discharge port. Medium pressure chamber and low
pressure chamber keep compressing and suction continuously. Impulse
of discharge is not obvious compared with other types of compressors.

4. Operating Envelopes and Limitations
Compressor operating envelop depends on which refrigerant the compressor operates with. It
indicates that within the specified saturated suction and discharge temperature the compressor
can operate adequately for long term. It is the key element to ensure compressors operating life.
If the suction temperature is too low, it might cause the problem for motor to be cooled properly. If
the operating condensing temperature is too high, the motor is overloaded and it will shorten the
operating life of compressor.
The diagram below shows the operating envelopes of ChynTec scroll compressor for different
refrigerants.

Remarks:
1. The envelope above is based on superheat at 5K.
2. Thermostat of motor winding is attached as the standard protector for each compressor.
3. The superheat for the suction line of the compressor is kept at 5~10 K. Maximum compressor
discharge temperature: 125°C.
4. To prevent liquid refrigerant from entering into compressor and cause loss of lubrication, the
recommended minimum discharge superheat is 15K. The discharge temperature should be
maintained at least 15K higher than condensing temperature. Normally, discharge superheat
is 25K for R134a, and 35K for R22 and R407C.
5. Due to R134a refrigerant molecule is tiny, special gasket should be applied for refrigerant
passage in the system to prevent from refrigerant leakage after long period of operation.
R407C and R404A are mixture of different refrigerants which contains R134a. The
requirement is the same as R134a.
6. Lubricant POE oil for the model operates with refrigerant R-134a is hygroscopic. It will absorb
the moisture in the air and cause damage to the system. Less than 1 hour exposure of POE
oil to the air is strongly recommended.
7. The operating envelope above is marked by Dew point. R407C is a zeotropic mixture. R404A
is an azeotropic mixture. There is a temperature glide in R407C and R404A. When
mentioning about evaporating and condensing temperature, it is necessary to indicate DEW
point or MEAN point. The figure below shows the definite difference between Mean and Dew
temperature. The dotted line means isotherm not isobar. For R407C as an example, Mean
point temperature is 2~3℃ lower than Dew point temperature.
8. When compressors operate within operating envelop, if lower body temperature is too low,
excessive amount of liquid refrigerant may enter into compression chamber and cause
damage to compressors. We can estimate the safety range of lower body temperature with
respect to evaporating temperature as shown on figure below on the right. However, the
highest temperature of lower body cannot exceed 90℃.

7. Electrical Design
1. Explanation to Electrical Current

Compressor motor designs and illustrations are different among various compressor
manufacturers. It often confuses HVAC system electrical control designers. Electrical data
included in this manual are defined and specified as following:

a. Operating Envelopes
Normally, for air conditioning equipment, the system operating condition depends on both
ambient temperature and interior temperature setting. The operating envelope (please refer
to Section 4 of this manual) means the design envelop of compressor which maximum
running envelope is certified by strict running tests.
Do not exceed the envelope when setting the required operating point under the approved
envelope of compressor, or it will reduce life of system and compressor.

b. Performance Table
Performance table is the measured results of power input and refrigeration capacity for
various points within the compressor operating envelope.
The data are helpful for the HVAC system designers to know the maximum running current
of system for choosing proper electrical components and overload protections for each
individual system.

c. Nominal Condition
Nominal condition is that the compressor operates under different standard system
designed operating condition. All kinds of air conditioning system have different design
concepts and different nominal conditions, such as the following:

S type W type L type H type

Nominal Condition ARI -- -- --
Evaporating Temp(℃) 7.2 3 -10 2
Condensing Temp(℃) 54.4 38 40 60
Sub-cooling (K) 8.3 5 5 5
Superheat (K) 11.1 5 5 5

d. LRA (Locked Rotor Ampere)

LRA is the starting current of direct start-up. The other ways for start-up can be calculated
by electrical law. (Such as Y-△ start-up is 1/3 of LRA)

e. Amp (Nominal Current)

Amp is the current of the compressor operating under the nominal (rated) condition. To
avoid confusing with the RLA of standard motor, some of the compressor manufacturers do
not provide Amp values. The Amp of ChynTec compressor is average current tested
under ARI condition, which is not only internationally applicable but also serves for good
reference for system electrical design.

f. I-max
I-max is the maximum current of the compressor’s motor under normal cooling condition.
This is only for the reference of HVAC system designers who design their own electrical
protection circuit.

3. Start-up Options

ChynTec compressors provide optional Y-Δ starting to customers. Y-Δ motor connects motor
coil by Y connection during starting, therefore reducing voltage on coils to 1/√3 of input voltage
and reconnects motor coil by Δ connection after starting. By doing so, we can decrease starting
current through voltage drop, i.e., so-called voltage-drop starting.

Y-Δ motor connection method is shown in the following motor wiring diagram:

In Y connection, MCM and MCS are inductive while motor leads Z, X, Y are tied together as a
neutral connecting as Y fashion. A few seconds later (1 sec is recommended), MCM and MCS
become deductive. Around 40 ms later, MCM and MCD are inductive, it turns out Δ run
connection.

Please pay attention:

After Y start, MCM and MCS are deductive for 40 ms and then MCM and MCD are inductive for
Δ run. Within as transient as 40 ms, pseudo short circuit might occur due to inappropriate
action of contactors, causing trip of compressors. When it occurs, we recommend usage of
adjustable Y-Δ dedicated Timer or slightly lengthen time span for MCM and MCS deduction –
MCM and MCD re-induction from 40 ms to 60 ms max directly in micro controller or PLC
program. Because motor is not powered during Y-Δ shift, shorter Y-Δ shift span is suggested
to prevent second start due to decreased rotation speed. However, if Y-Δ shift span is too
short, aforementioned pseudo short circuit might occur.

Characteristics of Y-Δ starting:

a. Starting current in Y connection is 1/3 of lock rotor ampere.
b. Starting torque in Y connection is 1/3 of lock rotor torque.

8. System Design & Application Advice
ChynTec scroll compressors have been applied widely for air conditioning and refrigeration.
Proper system design and application ensure the lifespan of the compressor and the
optimization of the capacity for the system.

A) Oil Heater
When compressor stops operating, the temperature of oil stocked in the lower body should be
10K higher than the low pressure saturate temperature to make sure that liquid refrigerant does
not store in the lower body of the compressor. Oil heater is a standard accessory to ChynTec
scroll compressors. We recommend oil heater is installed in all application system in order to
ensure long term operation. The oil heater specification is 220V, 100W. Please turn on oil
heater 12 hours before operation (if the suction or discharge shutoff valve is installed in the
system, please open it first.), and turn on the oil heater when compressor stops operating.

Under low ambient temperature, or big temperature difference between day and night, or long
period of time between compressors assembled and first time operation at customer site, if
discharge check valve and suction/discharge shutoff valve are not installed in the system,
excessive liquid (refrigerant and oil mixture) is likely to accumulated in compressors. It will
result in liquid start up and cause damage to compressor. Under this condition, we recommend
use of 150W oil heater, or extending heating time to more than 24 hours.

B) Thermostat
The motor of ChynTec scroll compressor is a 3 phase type, built in thermal protector. When the
motor is over heated caused by overload of the motor, shortage of refrigerant, or motor reverse,
the switch will trip. Because the protector will be reset automatically, we recommend to use
extra control (manual reset) to reset the system.

 z High/Low pressure protector
It is necessary for scroll compressors to install high pressure protector to protect
compressors under the conditions of the block of fan, non-operative of cooling water in
system. It is necessary to install low pressure protector to protect compressors under the
conditions of shortage or leakage of refrigerant in system. How to setup the high/low
pressure protector depends on the application and working condition. In general, high
pressure protector should be lower than max high pressure listed above; low pressure
protector should be higher than min low pressure listed above.

D) Low ambient temperature and minimum pressure difference

The required minimum pressure difference between suction and discharge port of scroll
compressor is 4~5 kg/cm2 to make sure enough back pressure to force orbiting scroll to sit on
thrust bearing. If pressure difference below this required range, orbiting scroll will separate
from thrust bearing and cause unwanted movement. To create enough pressure difference, it is
necessary to maintain discharge pressure at certain level. Therefore, when compressor
operates in low ambient temperature condition, the control on discharge pressure is very
important. The noise level of compressor might be increased .

E) Electric Voltage Requirement

Stable power supply provides proper voltage to ensure stable and long term operation.

Power supply voltage range: Rated voltage ± 10%

Frequency Rated voltage Voltage range
220V-3-60Hz 198V-242V
60 Hz 380V-3-60Hz 342V-418V
440V-3-60Hz 396V-484V
50 Hz 380V-3-50Hz 342V-418V

Phase voltage unbalanced value should be smaller than 2%, because the voltage unbalance
will cause certain phase current too high, and the motor will be over heated or burned out.
V − V + V AVG − VUW + V AVG − VVW
VUnbalance = AVG UV ×100
2 × V AVG
VAVG : the average of 3 phase voltages
VUV VVW VUW : UV, VW, and UW phase voltage

F) Switch On/Off Limitation

The switch on/off limitation of compressor is max 6 times in an hour. Too many times of switch
on/off compressor will shorten the lifespan. We recommend install the delay timer to limit the
switches. The minimum operating time depends on the system design. It is recommended that
the minimum operating time is 8 – 10 minutes. At least, the system engineer must consider for
proper motor cooling and oil returning back to safety level in compressor.

G) Compressors Reverse Protection

Scroll compressor can only compress the refrigerant in one direction. The operating direction is
decided by the phase sequence of 3 phase motor. Please use phase meter to ensure the power
phase is connected correctly before test operating,

The reverse can be found by:

z Scroll abnormal crash noise
z High and Low pressure can not be built up
25
We recommend install the power relay on system to ensure the normal operation.

H) Discharge Temperature Limitation

We recommend install temperature protector on the piping around 15 cm off discharge port to
limit the max discharge temperature. The cutoff temperature is set at 125℃.

Our optional accessory of discharge temperature protector cutoff temperature is 125℃ and the
reset temperature is 105℃.

I) Minimum Superheat at Suction Port

To prevent excessive liquid refrigerant from entering into compression chamber directly, the
recommended lowest suction superheat is 5K. The superheat of compressor should be
maintained at 5-15K.

J) Minimum Superheat at Discharge Port

To prevent liquid refrigerant from entering into compressor and result in loss of lubrication,
recommended minimum superheat at discharge port is 15K. (Discharge temperature is at least
15K higher than condensing temperature.) Normally, the discharge superheat is 25K for R134a,
35K for R22 and R407C.

K) Oil Level Exam

When the compressor operates stably, please make sure
there is no liquid refrigerant stocked at the lower body of
compressor, and the oil level should be above 1/2 of the
sight glass and below upper limit shown in the right figure.
You can also check the oil level immediately after the
compressor shut down. At this moment, the oil level
should be above 1/2 of the sight glass.

L) Notice of Pump Down

a. The damage caused by incorrect operation of pump down shall render the warranty void.
b. Stop the compressor immediately if any abnormal noise noticed during pump down process.
c. The low pressure limitation is 0.5(Kg/cm2.G). The time limitation of pump down is 15
seconds. Either condition sets up, stop the compressor immediately.

M) Suction Port Liquid Injection

When operate in air-cooled heat pump application under heavy loading working condition, or
low temperature refrigeration application under high compression ratio working condition, the
motor is likely over-heated, and the discharge temperature will exceed the max discharge
temperature limit. These will shorten the operating lifespan of compressors.

Suction port liquid injection device is to install a solenoid valve and an expansion vale between
liquid line and compressor suction port to introduce part of liquid refrigerant into compressor.
This is to utilize the latent heat of liquid refrigerant to cool down motor coil temperature, and
compression chamber temperature to ensure adequate long term operation and safety of
compressors.

26
It is recommended to install suction port liquid
injection device when discharge temperature is
higher than 125℃ for certain system application.
The device includes high temperature expansion
valve and solenoid valve, as shown in the right
figure. The setting temperature of solenoid valve
is at 115℃. When discharge temperature reaches
115℃, solenoid vale will be opened; and
discharge temperature drops to 95℃, solenoid
valve will be closed again. If the discharge
temperature rises higher than 125℃ even the
solenoid valve has been opened, the discharge
temperature protector must be tripped to protect
compressor. High temperature expansion valve
equipped with a temperature sensor to detect
discharge temperature and control the flow of
refrigerant accordingly to utilize liquid refrigerant
to cool down discharge temperature.
