Compressor Query
Are there any compressors you can theoretically reverse rotation and still maintain compression?

Re: Compressor Query
Yes, any three phase piston compressor; however you would need to check the oil pump for correct rotation on those with a pump.

Re: Compressor Query
The commercial 3 phases pistosn (Bitzer, Copeland, Bock,..) can run in both directions.
In the oilpump is some sort of a locking pin which makes this possible.It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
