COMPRESSOR HAVING OIL-LEVEL SENSING SYSTEM

A compressor includes a shell, a first temperature sensor, a second temperature sensor, and a control module. The shell includes a motor, a compression mechanism and a lubricant sump. The first temperature sensor is at least partially disposed within the shell and configured to measure a first temperature of a lubricant at a first position. The second temperature sensor is at least partially disposed within the shell and configured to measure a second temperature of the lubricant at a second position that is vertically higher than the first position. The control module is in communication withthe first and second temperature sensors and configured to determine a first difference between the first temperature and the second temperature. The control module is configured to determine whethera liquid level of the lubricant in the lubricant sump is below a predetermined level based on the first difference. 种压缩机，包括壳体、第温度传感器、第二温度传感器以及控制模块。壳体包括马达、压缩机构和润滑剂集存槽。第温度传感器至少部分地被布置在壳体内并且被构造成在第位置处测量润滑剂的第温度。第二温度传感器至少部分地被布置在壳体内并
