Abstract (en)

[origin: US2019310004A1] The invention relates to a method for operating a rotational-speed-variable refrigerant compressor (2) for cooling a cooling volume (4) of a refrigeration system (1), which refrigeration system does not have its own control unit, wherein the refrigeration system (1) comprises at least one thermostat (3) for directly or indirectly monitoring a temperature state of the cooling volume (4) and wherein the rotational-speed behavior of the refrigerant compressor (2) during a cooling cycle is controlled by means of a specification rotational-speed control stored in an electronic control device (6) of the refrigerant compressor (2). According to the invention, in order to enable adjustment of the rotational-speed behavior in reaction to a preceding special operating state and to enable energy-optimized cooling of the cooling volume (4) that is as fast as possible, at least one comparison parameter is stored in the electronic control device (6) of the refrigerant compressor (2) and exceedance or undershooting of the comparison parameter by a current measured parameter value is monitored, a special cooling cycle different from the specification rotational-speed control is triggered if the current measured parameter value exceeds or undershoots the comparison parameter, possibly, a current cooling cycle controlled by means of the specification rotational-speed control is interrupted by the special cooling cycle.
