Applications of CompRite™ Compressor Terminals
CompRite™ Compressor terminals prevent refrigerant leakage inside compressors while providing a continuous supply of electricity. Our hermetic and semi-hermetic compressors use terminals commonly found in a wide range of applications in heat pump, refrigeration, and air conditioning technology, including automotive air conditioning systems.
Automotive air conditioning
Electric compressors are primarily used in electric vehicles, including fully electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), electrically powered trucks and buses, as well as high-speed trains. By enabling compact designs and high electrical insulation, electric compressors are essential for comfortable air conditioning in this rapidly growing vehicle segment. These e-compressor terminals require precise designs to enable high power transmission and help prevent refrigerant leakage.

Household and commercial refrigeration
In refrigeration technology, compressor terminals are used in compressors for household and commercial refrigerators, such as supermarket display cases. Refrigerators run constantly, making extreme durability essential for these compressor terminals.
Household and commercial air conditioning
For air conditioning technology, reliable compressor terminals are necessary to sustain stable operation of air conditioning systems in household and commercial settings. CompRite™ compressor terminals are designed to handle pressure and power load requirements for a wide range of cooling capacities.
Heat pumps for water heaters (EcoCute)
Heat pumps for water heaters (EcoCute) use CO₂ (R744), a non-flammable refrigerant with a GWP of 1 and zero ozone depletion potential that has a low toxicity classification when used as intended. However, CO₂ operates at high pressure, so compressor terminals must be designed to withstand these demanding conditions.
