The Scroll Compressor - Basics & The Fixed Speed Type

[@LinNaingYan]

My dad was watching ur video and it helps him understand about how this machine works. He has one that not working well cuz of the noise, so he cut it open and see if there’s dirt in it. He clean some dirt and assemble it back. When he close it back and run it again, the machine is not producing pressure anymore. He asked me to ask you if you have any tips and suggestions for it? He has done to other machine by cutting it open, clean the dirt, put it back and it’s running well now. He’s having problem with this one. Thank you.

I think there's a clearance between the two scrolls required, and they are quite close. Close enough for the scroll to not seize up but not so far that there's no compression. I suspect what happened is you created a leak and now the scroll spins without any pressure difference. Also these compressors are hermetically sealed, and so only way to put it back together is weld it back together. These should be done by remanufacturing facility who can ensure the proper clearance.
