There are three different kind of Mercedes Benz AC compressors you could have a vane, scroll or centrifugal. The first one is the vane.

In a scroll Mercedes AC compressor, two spiral vanes are connected to each other. One of the vames moves clockwise and the other is stationary. As the clockwise scroll makes contact with the stationary scroll, it traps liquids in pockets formed by this contact causing the pockets to get smaller and compress the liquid and gases. The scrolls move fluid through the AC compressor and the substances make it to the scrolls center, which releases compressed liquids and gases to the rest of the compressor.
In a centrifugal Mercedes Benz AC compressor, also known as radial, the compressors operate due to a rotating disk and the housing of the compressor is tapered near the back. As the gas is moved through the housing, it is compressed and moves faster. This type of Mercedes AC compressor is found in turbocharged and supercharged engines.
