That's great that you did this. Even people who "know" what the scroll is can learn about them. Thank you,

This is the best video I have seen on Scroll Compressors and I am not even 8 minutes into it silently.

This is exactly what I wanted to see, thank you.. it's hard finding video like this show the inner workings of a compressor

Thank you So MUCH for this video. For years I have wonder how a piston compressor could fit my window AC unit!!! Now I understand.. It never was one!!!

Running cut out is amazing!!.. Thank you so much

They had scroll technology around 60 years ago. They had a seal between the scroll and it routinely failed. The machining process gets the tolerance much lower now so the gasket is no longer needed. I’ve seen the cut outs of these scrolls but never seen a running cut out. This was very cool thanks for the video.

@@jamesv4463 the scrolls are covered in oil. The oil acts as a seal that covers the microgaps and prevents the air from leaking. It also covers the surface of the scrolls and prevents them from getting cold welded together.

@@jamesv4463 it is impossible for a machine like this to run without oil in my opinion. the cold welds will increase the friction so much and will destroy the seal. no matter how perfect the seal is there is oil involved that protects the surface

Ii have to thank you for your efforts, you knew how to research and figure out how to demonstrate for yourself and others how it works.

Very cool!!! You have no idea how cool an important and the amount I learned from this!! Thanks!!

That is a fantastic video! You are right there are three bearing, drive bearing, middle is the straddie bearing and the lower bearing.The lower bearing live in the oil so it does see as much wear.The straddie bearing take a ton of abuse especially on liquid flood back.I don't see that much wear on the upper bearing when I take them apart.

Wow. Great feedback @dizziedallas . I worked on a unit today that had a scroll that was vibrating terribly. My guess is the compressor had liquid flood back recently since there were no pressure switches installed and the system leaked out all the refrigerant. I found the compressor off on internal thermal overload

one of the failure modes for these compressors is the bottom bearing which is held in by 2 to 4 cap screws. the screws can loosen up and the bottom bearing will knock around,

Это пожалуй лучшее видео об устройстве спирального компрессора.

I used to work at the factory that made that little plastic tube that you see attached to the side of the fixed scroll. Perhaps an older unit. The ones we made were of black plastic instead of white.

Hey Ulises I'm a little late on the vid lol I have a ZR125KC scroll that I want to tear open and see what's going on on the inside. What VFD do you recommend for that compressor ? We use 220V out here and 380V 3 phase. Just not sure what capacity I should use. It'll just be dry testing the motor like you reviewed here

Thank you for this video.very very amazing.

fantastic video

Excellent presentation....

Pretty sure you’ve been taking things apart since about the age of three 😂. Extremely impressed with your lab work. Sounds like a Ford model t Peace

Nice little VFD

awesome video!

Thank you. Great presentation.

may be it is medium scroll type 1 , i 'm not sure but i think the motor lower bearing is in contact with the lubricants ..

the small hole in the top of shaft is the "centering hole" for machining.

Did you take this from a portable ac? If yes, which one?

Nice video. Nice vfd also.

Did you try minimum freq and RPM, when the compressor starts to lubricate itself properly please? (Oil pump start pumping oil)

If it runs dry do to a leak will it recover original level of vacuum?

which VFD are you using?

I love VRV variable Refrigerant volume system that's why I love and like liked this video and I am HVAC technician so i loved the AC video but this one is really ossooom...✌️

I assume that is a three phase motor with variable speed drive.

Can this compressor be fixed once burnt? just asking

Can you run compressed air thru the outlet and make a three phase alternator or is there a check valve to prevent this?

@UlisesPalacios

There’s a discharge check valve to prevent reverse rotation. Scrolls only run in one direction

Will scroll compressor get damaged if it's made to run in reverse?

Karl-Alfred Römer their are ports for oil to run through the entire compressor to lubricate the moving parts. Oil runs through the entire refrigerant circuit.
