- the magnetic bearing could also be designed in such a way that the magnetic force only acts in one direction or in one dimension, for example by having two controllable electromagnets arranged opposite or symmetrically with respect to the piston rod, so that a magnetic force caused by these electromagnets on the piston rod only in one dimension works.
- the piston compressor comprises at least one cylinder as well as a piston arranged to be movable back and forth within the cylinder, the cylinder interior and thus also the movement of the piston in a preferred embodiment running in the horizontal direction or essentially in the horizontal direction, such a piston compressor also is referred to as a horizontal reciprocating compressor.

There is also the option of operating the piston compressor at a higher speed. If the piston compressor has a labyrinth piston, the use of the magnetic bearing has the advantage that contact between the labyrinth piston and the inner surface of the cylinder can be avoided even better, since an eccentric arrangement of the labyrinth piston with respect to the interior of the cylinder is at least partially corrected with the aid of the magnetic bearing so that no mutual contact occurs.
- the use of the magnetic bearing results in the additional advantage that the piston compressor can also be operated reliably with a reduced gap width between the outer surface of the labyrinth piston and the inner surface of the cylinder, without mutual contact occurring.

- the piston compressor according to the invention also has the advantage that it can be operated with a higher number of revolutions or with a higher mean piston speed, since the piston or the guide ring either no longer touches the cylinder inner wall or only rests against the cylinder inner wall with a reduced contact force.
- Such an operation at a higher speed of rotation is particularly advantageous in a piston compressor with a so-called dry-running piston, i.e. a labyrinth piston, or a piston with self-lubricating sealing rings, i.e. a piston whose piston or sealing rings are not oil-lubricated, which is also called a unlubricated piston is called.
- the controllable magnetic bearing can either be used as a supporting bearing, by which the piston is held without touching the inner surface of the cylinder, or it can be used as a relief bearing, through which the force exerted by the piston on the inner surface of the cylinder is reduced, whereby the In this case, the piston touches the inner wall.
- the controllable magnetic bearing can also take on a centering function in the case of a substantially vertically extending piston, by means of which the piston is centered, and preferably held without touching the inner surface of the cylinder.
- the magnetic bearing is arranged at a predetermined location in the horizontal reciprocating compressor, whereas the position of the center of gravity of the piston changes continuously during operation due to the back and forth movement, so that during operation the length of the piston rod between the magnetic Magnetic bearings and the center of gravity of the piston formed lever arm is constantly changing.
- a control device provided for supplying power to the magnetic bearing is therefore advantageously designed such that the magnetic force caused by the magnetic magnetic bearing on the piston rod is controlled depending on the position of the piston or depending on the length of the aforementioned lever arm.
- at least one force acting in the vertical direction is exerted on the piston rod.
- the magnetic bearing is particularly advantageously designed as a radial bearing which, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the piston rod, can exert a force controllable in two dimensions on the piston rod, preferably a force in the vertical direction and a force in the horizontal direction.

- the distance between the piston rod and the magnetic bearing is suitable as a state variable, at least in the vertical direction, and in particular the gap width in the magnetic bearing between the piston rod and the magnetic bearing.
- the sensor for detecting the state variable is advantageously designed to detect at least one of the following variables: angle of inclination ⁇ of the longitudinal direction relative to the vertical, angle of inclination ⁇ as a function of time, gap width between Cylinder inner surface and piston side surface, location of a mutual contact point between piston and cylinder.
- a reciprocating compressor usually comprises a packing seal with sealing rings, the piston rod running through this packing seal or its sealing rings in order to seal the cylinder interior from the outside.
- the magnetic bearings are also arranged in the packing seal.
- Such a modified packing seal comprising the magnetic bearing is particularly advantageously designed as an exchangeable part.
