Variable speed control of multiple compressors
First Claim
1. A system for variable speed control of a plurality of compressors under variable load demand, comprising:
- a constant power source;
a plurality of compressor motors having means to connect with said constant power source;
means for driving each of said plurality of compressor motors at variable speed, wherein each of said plurality of compressor motors includes means to connect with said means for driving; and
wherein each of said plurality of compressor motors is selectively electrically connected with said means for driving and said constant power source via said means to connect, for driving said each of said plurality of motors at one of variable and constant speed in response to load demand.

Abstract
A system for variable speed control of a plurality of compressors under variable load demand. The system includes a constant power source and a plurality of compressor motors having switches to connect with the constant power source. The system further includes a variable speed drive for driving any one of the plurality of compressor motors at variable speed, wherein each of the plurality of compressor motors includes a switch to connect with the variable speed drive. Each of the plurality of compressor motors is selectively electrically connected with the variable speed drive or the constant power source via the switches, for driving the each of the plurality of motors at one of variable or constant speed in response to compressor load demands.
