These Danfoss scroll compressors compressors are protected against
overheating and overloading by an internal safety motor protector.
However, an external manual reset overload protector is recommended
for protecting the circuit against over-current.

These Danfoss scroll compressors compressors are provided with a
bimetallic single pole single throw thermostat which is located in the
motor windings. Because the thermostat is an automatic reset device, it
must be wired in a lockout safety circuit with a manual reset to restart
the unit. For over-current protection, an external manual reset overload
protector must be used.

6 – Vacuum dehydration
• Never use the compressor to evacuate the
system.
• Connect a vacuum pump to both the LP & HP
sides.
• Pull down the system under a vacuum of 500
µm Hg (0.67 mbar) absolute.
• Do not use a megohmmeter nor apply power
to the compressor while it is under vacuum as
this may cause internal damage.
