A compressor suction pipe includes a bent portion at least including a first pipe segment on the most upstream side with respect to flow of a fluid to be compressed, a second pipe segment connected to a suction side of a compressor and extending in a direction different from the extension direction of the first pipe segment, and a third pipe segment disposed between the first pipe segment and the second pipe segment and extending in a direction different from the extension directions of the first and second pipe segments, and at least one partition extending at least from an intermediate portion of the first pipe segment at least to an intermediate portion of the second pipe segment in the bent portion and dividing an interior of the bent portion. The partition extends in a direction intersecting a virtual plane including an incircle that touches an axis of the first pipe segment on an upstream side of a downstream end of the first pipe segment and touches an axis of the second pipe segment.
