Abstract
A scroll compressor includes scroll compressor bodies, which, in turn, include a fixed scroll compressor body and a moveable scroll compressor body. The scroll compressor bodies have respective bases and respective scroll ribs that project from the respective bases, and which mutually engage about an axis for compressing fluid. The scroll compressor also includes a housing to house the scroll compressor bodies. A separator plate is configured to separate a high-pressure gas chamber from a low-pressure gas chamber within the housing. The separator plate has no machined surfaces, and has an outer perimeter portion which is attached to an unmachined inner surface of the housing. Having no machined surfaces indicates that no material is removed from the separator plate during its manufacture apart from operations to form initial inner and outer diameters of the separator plate.
