Summary

Hermetic compressors used on mobile units, such as military vehicles, submarines or air-conditioned railway coaches, have to be designed to meet extraordinary vibration, shock and environmental loads. The paper presents the additional requirements in such applications and design changes that were successfully applied to meeting such challenges on a 1.5-ton compressor for air conditioning of electronic equipment in all terrain vehicles. The final design is easy to manufacture. A major advantage of the new design is that there is no reduction of refrigeration capacity or Economical Energy Ratio.
