Max compressor dome temp
Just wondering what should be considered the maximum temp on the top of the scroll running 410A. Pick an discharge pressure of 28bar, for example.

Re: Max compressor dome temp
Exactly the same as for any other compressor, somewhere in the range of 120°C

Re: Max compressor dome temp
I know a lot of manufacturers (of systems, not compressors), that have a thermistor measuring there, set cut out to ~115°C

Re: Max compressor dome temp
That's good, I put the IR gun on it and it was 60C but I was just curious.

That's probably too cold.

Re: Max compressor dome temp
Yeah, 60C is a bit weird for 28bar. Hermetic recips normally run at 70C+ at lower pressures, rotaries and scrolls 80C+ at those pressures

Re: Max compressor dome temp
I will have to check it when I can get back in to the site. It was a quick check and I didn't look at anything else as it seemed to be pulling down well. It was off for a few hours while I did some electrical work and I had turned it on 5 min before.
