 The compressor must only be used for its 

designed  purpose(s)  and  within  its  scope  of 

application (refer to «operating limits»). 

Consult  Application  guidelines  and  datasheet 

available from cc.danfoss.com

 Under  all  circumstances, 

the  EN378  (or    other 

applicable 

local 

safety 

regulation) 

requirements 

must be fulfilled.

The  compressor  is  delivered  under  ni-

trogen  gas  pressure  (between  0.3  and 

0.7 bar) and hence cannot be connec-

ted as is; refer to the «assembly»

 

section 

for further details.

The  compressor  must  be 

handled  with  caution  in  the 

vertical  position  (maximum 

offset from the vertical : 15°)

 PSH019-023-026-030-034-039 compressors are protected against overheating and 

overloading by an internal safety motor protector. However, an external manual reset overload 
protector is recommended for protecting the circuit against over-current. The compressors come 
equipped with an electronic board OCS (Operating Control System) controlling liquid injection and 
a liquid injection valve assembly.

1 – Introduction

These instructions pertain to the Performer® PSH 

scroll  compressors,  models  PSH019-023-026-

030-034-039, used for heat pump and air-condi-

tioning  systems.  They  provide  necessary  infor-

mation regarding safety and proper usage of this 

product.

2 – Handling and storage

  •   Handle  the  compressor  with  care.  Use  the 

compressor  lifting  lugs  and  use  appropriate 

and safe lifting equipment.

  •   Avoid any shocks to the liquid Injection valve 

during handling operations.

  •   Store  and  transport  the  compressor  in  an 

upright position.

  •   Store the compressor between -35°C and 50°C.

  •   Don’t expose the compressor and the packa-

ging to rain or corrosive atmosphere.

3 – Safety measures before assembly

  Never  use  the  compressor  in  a  flammable 

atmosphere.

  •   The  compressor  ambient  temperature  may 

not exceed 50°C during off-cycle.

  •   Mount  the  compressor  on  a  horizontal  flat 

surface with less than 3° slope.

  •   Verify  that  the  power  supply  corresponds  to  the 

compressor motor characteristics (see nameplate).

  •   When installing PSH, use equipment specifi-

cally reserved for HFC refrigerants which was 

never used for CFC or HCFC refrigerants.

  •   Use clean and dehydrated refrigeration-grade 

copper tubes and silver alloy brazing material.

  •   Use clean and dehydrated system components.

  •   The piping connected to the compressor must 

be flexible in 3 dimensions to dampen vibrations.

4 – Assembly

  •   In parallel assemblies of PSH the compressor 

requires a rigid mounting on the rails. Use the  

pre-mounted rigid spacers.

  •   Slowly  release  the  nitrogen  holding  charge 

through the schrader port.

  •   Connect  the  compressor  to  the  system  as 

soon  as  possible  to  avoid  oil  contamination 

from ambient moisture.
