Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided and include a compressor for a refrigeration system and a duct assembly that includes a duct frame and a sensor unit. The duct frame provides a path for evaporating refrigerant from a lubricant sump of the compressor. The sensor unit obtains temperature measurements of the refrigerant and a lubricant within the lubricant sump and heats and evaporates the refrigerant located within the duct frame of the duct assembly. A control module receives temperature measurements from the sensor unit, determines a presence of liquid refrigerant within the lubricant sump of the compressor in response to a determination that an actual temperature change does not correspond with an expected temperature change for the lubricant, and in response to a determination that the actual temperature change corresponds with the expected temperature change for the lubricant, operates the compressor.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 18 , further comprising determining, using the processor, a presence of an incorrect liquid refrigerant within the lubricant sump in response to the determination that the actual temperature change does not correspond with the expected temperature change of the lubricant.
