4. COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL

4-1 COMPRESSOR 4-1-1 Role

The compressor intakes low temperature and low pressure gas from the evaporator of the refrigerator and compresses this gas to high-temperature and high-pressure gas. It then delivers the gas to the condenser.

4-1-2 Composition

The compressor includes overload protection. The PTC starter and OLP (overload protector) are attached to the outside of the compressor. Since the compressor is manufactured to tolerances of 1 micron and is hermetically sealed in a dust and moisture-free environment, use extreme caution when repairing it.

4-1-3 Note for Usage

(1) Be careful not to allow over-voltage and over-current. (2) If compressor is dropped or handled carelessly, poor

operation and noise may result.

(3) Use proper electric components appropriate to the

particular compressor in your product.

(4) Keep compressor dry.

If the compressor gets wet (in the rain or a damp environment) and rust forms in the pin of the Hermetic Terminal, poor operation and contact may result.

If the hermetic connector rusts out or fails, refrigerant and oil will be expelled into the contact area, probably resulting in smoke and fire.

(5) When replacing the Compressor, be careful that dust,

humidity, and soldering flux don’t contaminate the inside of the compressor. Contamination in the cylinder may cause noise, improper operation or even cause it to lock up.

4-2 PTC-STARTER 4-2-1 Composition of PTC-Starter

(1) PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) is a no-contact

semiconductor starting device which uses ceramic material consisting of BaTiO

(2) The higher the temperature is, the higher the resistance

value. These features are used as a starting device for the motor.

4-2-2 Role of PTC-Starter

(1) The PTC is attached to the sealed compressor and is

used for starting the motor.

(2) The compressor is a single-phase induction motor.

Durign the starting operation, the PTC allows current flow to both the start winding and main winding.

3) As the compressor starts, the current through the PTC causes its temperature to rise, and so the resistance also rises. When the resistance reaches a high enough level, only a trickle current will be running through the start winding. This small current then keeps the PTC hot and the resistance high.

4-2-4 Motor Restarting and PTC Cooling

(1) It requires approximately 5 minutes for the pressure, to

equalize before the compressor can restart.

(2) The PTC device generates heat during operation.

Therefore, it must be allowed to cool before the compressor can restart.

4-2-5 Relation of PTC-Starter and OLP

(1) If the compressor attempts to restart before the PTC

device is cooled, the PTC device will allow current to flow only to the main winding.

(2) The OLP will open because of the overcurrent

condition. This same process will continue (3 to 5 times) when the compressor attempts to restart until the PTC device has cooled. The correct OLP must be properly attached to prevent damage to the compressor.

Parts may appear physically identical but could have different electrical ratings. Replace parts by part number and model number. Using an incorrect part could result in damage to the product, fire, injury, or possibly death.

4-2-6 Note for Using the PTC-Starter

(1) Be careful not to allow over-voltage and over-current. (2) Do not drop or handle carelessly. (3) Keep away from any liquid.

If liquid such as oil or water enters the PTC, PTC materials may fail due to breakdown of their insulating capabilities.

(4) If the exterior of the PTC is damaged, the resistance

value may be altered. This can cause damage to the compressor and result in a no-start or hard-to-start condition.

(5) Always use the PTC designed for the compressor and

make sure it is properly attached to the compressor. Parts may appear physically identical but could have different electrical ratings. Replace parts by part number and model number. Using an incorrect part could result in damage to the product, fire, injury, or possibly death.

4-3 OLP (OVERLOAD PROTECTOR)

4-4 TO REMOVE THE PTC COVER

4-3-1 Definition of OLP

(1) OLP (OVERLOAD PROTECTOR) is attached to the

compressor and protects the motor by opening the circuit to the motor if the temperature rises activating the bimetal spring in the OLP.

(2) When high current flows to the compressor motor, the

bimetal works by heating the heater inside the OLP, and the OLP protects the motor by cutting off the current flowing to the compressor motor.

4-3-2 Role of the OLP

(1) The OLP is attached to the sealed compressor used

for the refrigerator. It prevents the motor coil from being started in the compressor.

(2) For normal operation of the OLP, do not turn the adjust

Screw of the OLP in any way.
