Sanden Compressor SD7H15
The Sanden SD7H15 compressor
is a 7
cylinder
machine with
a
bore
of
29.3
mm (1.15 in) and a

stroke
of
32.8
mm (1.29
inches).
The displacement
per
revolution
is
155cc
(9.5

cubic inches).
The magnetic clutch
is
engineered with
the

compressor
as a
complete assembly resulting
in a

relatively small unit
of
lightweight construction.
The compressor may be mounted up to 90° from
its

upright position.
The compressor incorporates
a
lubrication system
which reduces the
oil
circulation ratio
to a
level
of

less than
2% at 1800 rpm.

An
oil
deflector
and
positive pressure differential
lubrication system promotes oiling
to the
cylinder

wall,
piston
rod
assemblies, main bearings
and

shaft
seal,
and
ensures that
oil
circulation
to the

refrigeration circuit
is
kept
to a
minimum.
The

compressor ischarged
with!
35 cc(4.6fluid ounces)
ofSunico NoSGSoil at the factory. Only this oil
or

oneoftheequivalentoilsdetailed below should
be

used.
