Hermetic Compressor Fault Simulator Trainer | PolarX - 548
Product Overview
The Hermetic Compressor Fault Simulator Trainer PolarX - 548 teaches the wiring, start-up, and safe operation of refrigerant compressors under mains voltage. This Hermetic Compressor Fault Simulator Trainer includes a refrigerant circuit with compressor, receiver, 2 valves, and 2 manometers to test pressure switches on the delivery and intake sides. Electrical components, including start-up capacitor, start-up relay, overheat protection, automatic fuse, and thermostat (range -30~30°C), are mounted clearly visible with lab jacks and cables for connection. Optional LABVIEW-based DAQ software supports automated data measurement.

Construction and Design
The Hermetic Compressor Fault Simulator Trainer PolarX - 548 features a control panel with test point pins, installed with simplicity on the same panel as the compressor and pressure gauges. The refrigerant circuit includes a compressor, receiver, 2 valves, and 2 manometers to investigate pressure switches on the delivery and intake sides. Electrical components for compressor start and operation are mounted clearly visible. Lab jacks and cables connect the electrical components. A circuit diagram is displayed on the front panel for easy identification of components. The unit operates on R134a refrigerant, which is CFC-free.
