Sound and vibration management

Speed bypass

Gas pulsation

Mechanical vibrations

If vibrations still occur at some typical 
frequencies, a speed bypass function is available 
within the VRJ. This function allows avoiding 

some frequency ranges and avoiding vibrations 
to occur. Refer to “Danfoss VRJ Installation and 
Operation instructions” for setting details.

The VRJ scroll compressor has been designed 
and tested to ensure that gas pulsation has been 
optimised for the most commonly encountered 
air conditioning pressure ratio. On heat pump 
installations and other installations where the 
pressure ratio lies beyond the typical range, 
testing should be conducted under all expected 

conditions and operating configurations to 
ensure that minimum gas pulsation is present. If 
an unacceptable level is identified, a discharge 
muffler with the appropriate resonant volume 
and mass should be installed. This information 
can be obtained from the component 
manufacturer.

Vibration isolation constitutes the primary 
method for controlling structural vibration. VRJ 
scroll compressors are designed to produce 
minimal vibration during operations. The use 
of rubber isolators on the compressor base 
plate is very effective in reducing vibration 
being transmitted from the compressor to 
the unit. Rubber grommets are supplied with 
all Danfoss compressors. Once the supplied 
rubber grommets have been properly mounted, 
vibrations transmitted from the compressor base 
plate to the unit are held to a strict minimum. 
In addition, it is extremely important that the 
frame supporting the mounted compressor be 
of sufficient mass and stiffness to help dampen 
any residual 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 flexibility. 

During unit development, the complete 
compressor speed range should be covered, in 
order to define if abnormal vibrations occur or 
not. As ultimate solution, speed bypass can be 
applied.

For more information on piping design, please 
see the section entitled “Essential piping design 
considerations”.
