ABSTRACT:
The disclosure describes a refrigerant compressor of the type driven by a motor capable of operating at a low speed and a high speed, the motor including first, second and third stator coils. First, second and third temperature sensors are located adjacent the first, second and third stator coils, respectively, for detecting any change in temperature of the coils. If the temperature of any of the stator coils exceeds a perdetermined value, a control device operates a switch in a pilot circuit that turns off the motor before damage from excessive heat can occur. A unique contactor assembly utilizing both electrical and mechanical interlocks interconnects the stator coils to provide two speed operation.
