Compressor starting method and apparatus

摘要

A piston type compressor wherein the position of the piston highest pressure point is indicated and the rotor of the motor at the optimal starting angle aligned prior to the actual compression operation by providing a pre-pulse to rotate the rotor of the motor at least one full rotation at a certain frequency, during rotation measuring the load torque by the frequency converter as well as indicating the maximum load torque point and at the end aligning the rotor of the motor at the optimal starting angle of about 180° from the maximum pressure angle, and at the beginning of the actual compression operation setting the rotor position opposite to the maximum torque angle by feeding direct current to the stator winding and starting the motor by supplying maximum motor current to the motor to give the maximum torque and acceleration.
