An object of the present invention is to provide a scroll compressor with a simple configuration which is capable of preventing the occurrence of noise induced due to compressed air remaining in a discharge pipe flow backward and an orbiting scroll rotating reversely when stopping the compressor. To this end, there is provided a scroll compressor including a scroll type compressor body provided with an orbiting scroll and a fixed scroll; a motor that drives the compressor body; an inverter that drives the motor; a discharge pipe that connects a discharge port of the compressor body to an air tank storing air compressed by the compressor body; and a check valve that shuts off the compressed air flowing backward from the air tank in the discharge pipe, in which, when stopping the compressor body, the inverter controls a rotational speed of the motor driving the compressor body, in two steps at a first deceleration and a second deceleration lower than the first deceleration, from when a stop command is output until the compressor body stops.
