A method and system for controlling operation of a vapor compression system (13) includes monitoring at least one component condition of the system (13), comparing a predetermined setpoint to the at least one component condition, and loading or unloading at least one of a first compressor (18) or a second compressor (20) of the system (13) in response to the comparison of the predetermined setpoint to the at least one component condition. Un procédé et un système de commande du fonctionnement d'un système à compression de vapeur (13) comprennent la surveillance d'au moins une condition d'un composant du système (13), la comparaison d'une valeur de référence prédéterminée par rapport à la ou aux conditions d'un composant, et le chargement ou le déchargement d'un premier compresseur (18) et/ou d'un second compresseur (20) du système (13) en réponse à la comparaison de la valeur de référence prédéterminée par rapport à la ou aux conditions d'un composant.
