    Abstract: A system and method for flooded start control of a compressor are provided. An ambient temperature sensor generates ambient temperature data and a compressor temperature sensor generates compressor temperature data. A control module receives the ambient temperature data and the compressor temperature data, determines whether the outdoor ambient temperature is rising faster than the compressor temperature, determines whether the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than the compressor temperature by more than a predetermined threshold for more than a predetermined time period, and, in response to the outdoor ambient temperature rising faster than the compressor temperature and the outdoor ambient temperature being greater than the compressor temperature by more than the predetermined threshold for more than the predetermined time period, operates the compressor according to at least one cycle including a first time period during which the compressor is on and a second time period during which the compressor is off.

    Abstract: A compressor is provided and may include a shell, a motor assembly, a compression mechanism, a pump housing, and at least one pump. The shell includes a fluid disposed therein. The motor assembly is disposed within the shell and is drivingly engaged with a driveshaft. The compression mechanism is driven by the driveshaft. The pump housing is rotatably disposed within the shell for rotation relative to the driveshaft and relative to the shell. The at least one pump is rotatably disposed within the pump housing such that the at least one pump is in driving engagement with the driveshaft.

    Abstract: A compressor may include a shell, a non-orbiting scroll, an orbiting scroll, and a discharge valve member. The shell may define a discharge chamber. The non-orbiting scroll may be disposed within the discharge chamber and includes a first end plate and a first spiral wrap extending from the first end plate. The orbiting scroll may be disposed within the discharge chamber and includes a second end plate and a second spiral wrap extending from the second end plate. The first and second spiral wraps mesh with each other to define fluid pockets therebetween. The second end plate includes a discharge passage extending therethrough. The discharge valve member may be attached to the second end plate and may be movable between an open position allowing fluid flow from the discharge passage to the discharge chamber and a closed position restricting fluid flow from the discharge passage to the discharge chamber.
