Abstract

The disclosure relates to compressors for heat exchange systems, heat exchange systems having such compressors, and methods for controlling operation of compressors. The compressor includes a drive device for driving the compressor and having at least a first and second working conditions. An output power of the drive device under the second working condition is greater than an output power under the first working condition. The compressor has at least one upload/download flow path configured to be opened before the drive device is switched from the first working condition to the second working condition to reduce a suction flow of the compressor until current operating parameters of the compressor reach preset values, after which the switching is performed, and to increase the suction flow until the compressor is in a required working state, after the switching is completed.
