Hermetic Reciprocating Compressors

They are normally of small capacity and both the drive motor (electric) and the compressor are enclosed within a single enclosure. Its great advantage is the non-leakage of refrigerant through the shaft end, as can happen with open compressors, as they do not have screws. Thus, there is no possibility of access to internal components for maintenance purposes, because of this, they are disposable, that is, in case of burning the only solution is the total replacement of the equipment.
