A freezing device including a compressor that compresses sucked refrigerant using a compression mechanism and discharges compressed refrigerant includes a compressor, an inverter, and a controller. The compressor includes a motor, a low pressure unit, a compression space, a high pressure unit, a communication flow path, and a flow control valve. The inverter drives or stops the motor. The controller controls the inverter and the flow control valve. The controller performs, in stop control in which an operation of the compressor is stopped, braking control in which driving of the compression mechanism is prevented or suppressed, and pressure equalization control in which pressure in the high pressure unit is equalized with pressure in the low pressure unit.
