Abstract: A climate-control system may include first and second compressors and a suction manifold. The first compressor includes a first shell, a first compression mechanism, and a first suction inlet through which working fluid is drawn into the first compressor. The second compressor includes a second shell, a second compression mechanism, and a second suction inlet through which working fluid is drawn into the second compressor. The suction manifold includes first and second arms. The first arm provides working fluid to the first suction inlet. The second arm provides working fluid to the second suction inlet. The second arm includes a first suction pipe, a second suction pipe, and a suction valve. The suction valve is movable between a first position in which working fluid is allowed to flow through the first suction pipe and a second position in which working fluid is allowed to flow through the second suction pipe.

Abstract: A compressor may include first and second scrolls and a seal. The first scroll includes a first end plate and a first spiral wrap extending from the first end plate. The first end plate may define a discharge passage and an annular recess surrounding the discharge passage. The second scroll includes a second end plate and a second spiral wrap extending from the second end plate. The first and second spiral wraps cooperate to define a plurality of fluid pockets. The seal may be at least partially received in the annular recess and may cooperate with the first scroll to define a biasing chamber receiving fluid at an intermediate pressure. The seal may include inner and outer diametrical surfaces. The inner diametrical surface may include a plurality of first annular grooves. The outer diametrical surface may include a plurality of second annular grooves.
