Abstract
A compressor (10, 200) for compressing refrigerant, having a power unit arranged in a power unit space (14) which is delimited at least partially by a power unit housing (12), having a suction gas volume (46) and having a high-pressure volume (48) is in fluid communication with the power unit space (14) via a second fluid connection (74), wherein the compressor furthermore has a first fluid connection (54, 254) which can be placed in or is in fluid communication with an oil-conducting volume (205) of a refrigeration plant or of the compressor (10, 200), wherein an oil seperator (56) is arranged in the first fluid connection (54, 254).
Claims12
A compressor for compressing refrigerant, comprising a power unit arranged in a power unit space which is delimited at least partially by a power unit housing, having a suction gas volume and having a high-pressure volume, wherein the high-pressure volume is in fluid communication with the power unit space via a second fluid connection, wherein the compressor furthermore has a first fluid connection which can be placed in or is in fluid communication with an oil-conducting volume of a refrigeration plant or of the compressor, wherein an oil separator is arranged in the first fluid connection,
- wherein the oil separator has a centrifugal oil separator,
- wherein the oil separator has an oil outlet which is in fluid communication, via a third fluid connection, with the second fluid connection between the high-pressure volume and the power unit space, and
- wherein the oil outlet is in fluid communication with an injector, which is arranged in the second fluid connection between the high-pressure volume and power unit space and which is in fluid communication with the second fluid connection, or with a jet pump which is arranged there and which is in fluid communication with the second fluid connection.
