Hermetic compressors combine the electric motor and compression mechanism inside a permanently sealed steel shell. This compact construction is commonly used in refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, heat pumps, and other fractional-horsepower refrigeration equipment.
DAC Worldwide’s Hermetic Compressor Cutaway (373-110) is an expertly sectioned example of a common fractional-horsepower refrigeration compressor. Both the steel shell and internal compressor assembly are cut away, providing visibility into components that are normally inaccessible.
The full-size industrial component supports practical training in compressor construction, operating principles, component identification, system design, troubleshooting, and preventive maintenance.
Carefully planned cutaway areas expose the compressor’s motor and compression mechanism while retaining the relationship between its primary components. Learners can examine how the sealed motor and compressor assembly work together to circulate refrigerant through an HVAC/R system.
Cutaway surfaces and selected components are painted and color-coded to make internal geometry and component relationships easier to understand. The cutaway supports both instructor-led demonstrations and independent student exploration.
Learners can use the cutaway to:
The cutaway is intended for component visualization and instructional demonstration rather than operational refrigeration-system use.
The compressor is mounted on a 10-gauge, formed-steel, powder-coated baseplate. The modular panel can be used for benchtop demonstrations or mounted on compatible DAC Worldwide storage, display, bench, and workstation products.
The industrial component is cleaned, primed, sectioned, and finished using durable coatings designed to withstand frequent classroom and laboratory use.
DAC Worldwide’s HVAC cutaways provide a detailed look inside compressors, solenoid valves, refrigeration valves, and other components found in HVAC/R systems. Download the guide to explore the available HVAC cutaway training aids.
