Protection against liquid return
When the compressor is at rest, the moving scroll rests on the casing. When the compressor starts to run, the pressure in
the chamber under the scroll builds up through two bleed holes in the medium pressure section of the compression stroke.
This pressure then forces the scroll up against the housing and seals the compression chamber. If liquid returns to the
compressor, the resulting increase in pressure forces the scroll downwards, breaking the seal and allowing the liquid to
pass back into the compressor body, where it will boil off due to the higher temperature.

Optimized design of stator coils
The design of the stator coils positioned to optimize the magnetic field significantly reduce heat losses, and increase the
motor’s efficiency at low speeds.

DC compressor with neodymium magnet
The use of a DC compressor with neodymium magnets in the rotor improves the performance at around the 30-40Hz range
where the operation time of the inverter compressor is longest. Additionally, to suppress electromagnetic noise interference
and achieve low noise, the rotor has been divided into two parts and the electric pole displaced.
Characteristics at low speed, which affect the annual running cost, have been significantly improved.
