Features
OverviewEconomized compressor: In the LLZ range of
Danfoss scroll compressor for refrigeration, LLZ,
with its unique scroll design and manufacturing
process exibility, oers a highly ecient solution
for demanding refrigeration applications.
This new family of refrigeration scroll
compressors includes 5 sizes of low temperature
scroll compressors designed for commercial
refrigeration applications. These compressors are
engineered for refrigeration and oer cooling
capacity from 5 to 12 kW (4 to 10 HP) at common
voltages and frequencies as well as any of the
common refrigerants (R404A / R507).
refrigeration scrolls, the compressors can work
with the economizer line activated, named as
economized compressor; or with the economizer
line disabled, named as standard compressor. The
economized compressor has been developed to
provide improved performance and an enlarged
operating envelope in refrigeration applications.
The economized compressor system presents
benets over standard refrigeration compressor
systems of equivalent horse power due to the
following:
• Capacity improvement: The capacity is
improved without increasing compressor
displacement, as it is increased by further
increasing system sub cooling with a
heat exchanger acting as an economizer
(connected to the compressor economizer
line). Furthermore a smaller economized
compressor can be used to achieve the same
capacity as a larger standard compressor,
leading to cost advantages.
• Eciency improvement: With a suitable sized
heat exchanger, the eciency improves
due to the fact that the gain in capacity is
greater than the increase in power that the
compressor consumes.
GENERAL INFORMATIONSYSTEM DESIGNINTEGRATION INTO SYSTEMORDERING INFORMATIONPRODUCT INFORMATION
• Enlarged operating envelope: The injection
of vapour through the economizer line
will reduce the discharge temperature and
therefore enlarge the operating envelope
based on the same suction status.
Standard compressor with liquid injection: The
standard compressor can also connect with a
liquid valve to reduce the discharge temperature
and enlarge the envelope.
• Enlarged operating envelope: The liquid
injection of refrigerant into the compressor
will ash and absorb heat from the
compressed gas and scroll set leading to
cooling of the discharge gas, thus keeping
the discharge gas temperature within safe
limits. The enlarged operating envelope is
therefore based on the same suction status.

Winding resistance is generally low and it
requires adapted tools for precise measurement.
Use a digital ohm-meter, a "4 wires" method and
measure under stabilised ambient temperature.
Winding resistance varies strongly with winding
temperature. If the compressor is stabilised
at a dierent value than 25°C, the measured
resistance must be corrected using the following

LLZ scroll compressors have a unique discharge
valve design that minimizes stopping noise. This
results in very low shutdown sound.
Note: During compressor shut down, a short
reverse rotation sound is generated. The duration
of this sound depends on pressure dierence at
shut down and should be less than 3 seconds.
This phenomenon has no impact on compressor
reliability.
Mitigations methods:
We can consider two means to reduce
compressors sound radiations:
1. Acoustic hoods are quick and easy to install
and do not increase the overall size of the
compressors to a great extent. Acoustic hoods
are available from Danfoss as accessories. Refer
to table above for sound levels, attenuation and
code numbers.
2. Use of sound-insulation materials on the inside
of unit panels is also an eective means to reduce
radiation.

Vibration isolation constitutes the primary
method for controlling structural vibration. LLZ
scroll compressors are designed to produce
minimal vibration during operations. The use of
rubber isolators on the compressor base plate or
on the frame of a manifolded unit is very eective
in reducing vibration being transmitted from the

supplied with all LLZ scroll compressors.
Once the supplied rubber grommets have
been properly mounted, vibration transmitted

congurations to ensure that minimum gas
pulsation is present.
extremely important that the frame supporting
the mounted compressor be of sucient mass

vibration potentially transmitted to the frame.
The tubing should be designed so as to both
reduce the transmission of vibrations to other
structures and withstand vibration without
incurring any damage. Tubing should also be
designed for three-dimensional exibility. For

In some cases, oil management can be enhanced
by control logic:
• If oil return test failed, a function can be
integrated in control to run all compressors
simultaneously during one minute every hour
in order to boost oil return. Time and delay can
be ne-tuned by oil return test N°1 in section
“Manage oil in the circuit”. During oil boost, pay
special attention to superheat management to
avoid liquid ood back and foaming.
Therefore, to guarantee these 2 requirements,
a three-minute (180- sec) time out is
recommended.
• If after running long time in full load, oil
unbalance appears, then a function can be in
control to stop all compressors in manifold
during one minute every two hours in order
to balance oil between compressors. Time and
delay can be ne-tuned by Oil balancing test

Defrost logic
recommendations
30FRCC.PC.039.A1.02
In refrigeration system applications, there
are dierent defrost methods, such as electric
heating defrost, hot gas bypass defrost, reversible
defrost etc. For the systems which use hot gas
bypass or reversible defrost method, suction
accumulator is necessary as a result of the
possibility of a substantial quantity of liquid
refrigerant remaining in the evaporator.
This liquid refrigerant can then return to the
compressor, either ooding the sump or as
a dynamic liquid slug when the cycle switch
back to normal cooling operations. Sustained
and repeated liquid slugging and ooding can
seriously impair the oil’s ability to lubricate the
compressor bearings. In such cases a suction
accumulator is a must.
Control logic
Pump-down logic
recommendations
Pump-down cycle: Once the system has reached
its set point and is about to shut o, the LLSV
on the liquid line closes. The compressor then
pumps the majority of the refrigerant charge into
the high pressure side before the system stops on
the low pressure pump-down switch. This step
reduces the amount of charge on the low side in
order to prevent o-cycle migration.
A pump-down cycle represents one of the most
eective ways to protect against the
o-cycle migration of refrigerant; however it is
only convenient to apply on application with
thermostatic control.
Rack application with pressostatic control can use
timer delay to empty the evaporators before the
stop. Time should be carefully set to not interfere
with the low safety pressure switch.
For low pressure pump-down switch settings,
refer to section “High and low pressure
protection”. For suggested wiring diagrams,
please see section “Wiring diagram”.
Under certain conditions, the internal valve may
not completely seal, and due to the refrigerant
back ow the compressor might restart during
pump-down applications. Repeated short cycling
can result in a compressor breakdown. It is
recommended to install an external magnetic
check valve (such as Danfoss Part No. 120Z5046)
close to the compressor’s discharge connector so
the discharge volume is minimized.
A magnetic check valve is recommended for
this as it oers the best solution regarding
minimal required and maximal pressure drop
over the wide application envelope of the LLZ
scroll compressors. If a Danfoss NRV check valve
is applied it has to be carefully selected for the
specic operation conditions of the individual
system.
Tests for pump down cycle approval:
• As the pump-down switch setting is inside the
application envelope, tests should be carried
out to check unexpected cut-out during
transient conditions (i.e. defrost - cold starting).
When unwanted cut-outs occur, the low
pressure pump-down switch can be delayed. In
this case a low pressure safety switch without
any delay timer is mandatory.
• While the thermostat is o, the number of
pressure switch resets should be limited to
avoid short cycling of the compressor. Use
dedicated wiring and an additional relay which
allows for one shot pump-down.

Reduce moisture in the system
Requirements
Solutions
Excessive air and moisture
• can increase condensing pressure and cause
excessively high discharge temperatures.
• can create acid giving rise to copper platting.
• can destroy the lubricating properties of the oil.
LLZ compressors are delivered with < 100 ppm
moisture level.
To achieve this requirement, a properly sized
and type of drier is required. Important selection
criteria’s include:
• driers water content capacity,
• system refrigeration capacity,
• system refrigerant charge.
All these phenomena can reduce service life
and cause mechanical and electrical compressor
failure.
At the time of commissioning, system moisture
content may be up to 100 ppm. During
operation, the lter drier must reduce this to a
level between 20 and 50 ppm.
For new installations with LLZ compressors with
polyolester oil, Danfoss recommends using the

Brazing procedure:
• Brazing operations must be performed by
qualied personnel.
• Make sure that no electrical wiring is connected
to the compressor.
• To prevent compressor shell and electrical box
overheating, use a heat shield and/or a heatabsorbent compound.
• Clean up connections with degreasing agent
• Flow nitrogen through the compressor.
• Use ux in paste or ux coated brazing rod.
R
Before eventual un-brazing of the
compressor or any system component, the
refrigerant charge must be removed.
• Use brazing rod with a minimum of 5% silver
content.
• It is recommended to use double-tipped torch
using acetylene to ensure a uniform heating of
connection.
• For discharge connections brazing time should
be less than 2 minutes to avoid NRVI damages
if any.
• To enhance the resistance to rust, a varnish on
the connection is recommended.

The compressor has been strength tested
and leak proof tested (<3g/year) at the factory.
For system tests:
• Pressurize the system on HP side rst then LP
side.
• Do not exceed the following pressures:
• Always use an inert gas such as Nitrogen or
Helium.

Dielectric strength and
insulation resistance tests
Requirements:
• Never use the compressor to evacuate the
system.
• Connect a vacuum pump to both the LP and HP
sides.
• Evacuate the system to a pressure of 500 μm Hg
(0.67 mbar) absolute.
R
Initial charge:
• For the initial charge, the compressor must not
run.
• Charge refrigerant as close as possible to the
nominal system charge.
• This initial charging operation must be done in
liquid phase between the condenser outlet and
the lter drier.
The tests are performed on each compressor at
the factory between each phase and ground.
• Dielectric strength test is done with a high
potential voltage (hi-pot) of 2Un +1000V AC
at least, and leakage current must be less than
5 mA. Additional tests of this type are not
recommended as it may reduce motor lifetime.
Nevertheless, if such a test is necessary, it must
be performed at a lower voltage.
Recommendations:
• Energized heaters improve moisture removal.
• Alternate vacuum phases and break vacuum.
with Nitrogen to improve moisture removal.
For more detailed information see “Vacuum
pump-down and dehydration procedure”
TI-026-0302.
If needed, a complement of charge can be done:
• In liquid phase while compressor is running by
slowly throttling liquid in.
• On the low pressure side, as far away as possible
from the compressor suction connection.
• Never bypass safety low pressure switch.
For more detailed information see
“Recommended refrigerant system charging
practice“ FRCC.EN.050.
• Insulation resistance is measured with a 500 V
DC megohm tester and must be higher than 1
megohm.
• The presence of refrigerant around the
motor windings will result in lower resistance
values to ground and higher leakage current
readings. Such readings do not indicate a faulty
compressor. To prevent this, the system can be
rst operated briey to distribute refrigerant.
Do not use a megohm meter nor apply

power to the compressor while it is under

Check electrical power supply:
• Phase order: For LLZ compressors equipped
with an electronic module, reverse rotation will
be automatically detected. For more details refer
to section “Motor protection”.
• Surface sump heaters must be energized at least
6 hours in advance to remove refrigerant.
• A quicker start-up is possible by “jogging” the
compressor to evacuate refrigerant. Start the
The system must be monitored after initial
startup for a minimum of 60 minutes to ensure
proper operating characteristics such as:
• Correct superheat and subcooling.
• Current draw of individual compressors within
acceptable values (max operating current).
• No abnormal vibrations and noise.
• Correct oil level.
• Voltage and voltage unbalance within tolerance:

minutes. After 3 or 4 jogs the compressor can
be started. This operation must be repeated for
each compressor individually.
If Oil Top-up is needed, it must be done while the
compressor is idle. Use the schrader connector
or any other accessible connector on the
compressor suction line. Always use original
Danfoss POE oil 160SZ from new cans.
