ABSTRACT:
A compressor unloader controller for placing a compressor in an unloaded condition when the compressor is being started. A compressor inlet valve, movable between a normally open and a closed position, admits fluid flow to the compressor when the valve is in the open position. A pressure reservoir contains pressure sufficient to bias the inlet valve into the closed position. A starter valve applies pressure from the pressure reservoir to the inlet valve only when the compressor is in a starting mode. The inlet valve may also be actuated, during normal compressor operation, by a pressure regulating device which is connected to a compressor outlet line.
