Cabinet for a refrigeration compressor delimiting an inner space designed to receive electrical and electronic components, characterized by having at least one support for the electrical and electronic components and a protective cap having an open side face delimited by an edge whose shape at least partially matches the shape of the side wall of compressor, cap being intended to be applied by its open side face against the side wall of the compressor, thus forming one of the walls of the cabinet. The cabinet accommodates the electrical and electronic command, control, and protection components on refrigeration compressors ensuring that the electrical and electronic components are held at their operating temperature and that tightness and vibrations are at an acceptable level.

Electrical and electronic component cabinet for a refrigeration compressor

A compressor assembly includes a compressor having a known vibration frequency when operated at normal operating parameters; and an electric box assembly having a frame member mounted to the compressor for containing electrical components related to the compressor, the electric box assembly having a natural frequency which is different from the known vibration frequency. This avoids amplification of vibration into the electric box assembly and thereby protects the assembly from damage due to same.
