FIELD: machine building.
SUBSTANCE: alternate current is fed on coil (5) to drive anchor (6) into oscillating motion at putting into operation linear compressor (1) with coil (5), anchor (6) travelling under effect of magnetic field against force of spring, and with compressor chamber (10) restricted with movable piston (11) connected to anchor (6). Prior to putting into operation direct current (I) is fed to coil (5) with the first sign to transfer anchor (6) from a rest position. There is measured the first final position which the anchor reaches under effect of direct current (I). During operation strength of alternate current of coil excitation is controlled so that anchor does not reach the first end position or reaches it at damped rate. A compressor unit operates always with minimal dead volumes without hazards of piston 11 impacts against walls of the compressor chamber.
EFFECT: raised efficiency of compressor.
