5. A compression module for a vehicle, the compression module comprising:
a compression unit configured to compress a refrigerant introduced into the compression unit;
a controller having a first surface separably assembled to the compression unit to control the compression unit; and
an accumulator unit separably mounted on a second surface of the controller in a direction opposite to the compression unit, the accumulator unit being configured to supply the refrigerant to the compression unit in a gaseous state, and the accumulator unit having a heat exchange unit provided on one surface that is in close contact with the controller, wherein the heat exchange unit comprises:
a heat dissipation part provided on a surface of the accumulator unit corresponding to the second surface of the controller,
one or more heat dissipation fins provided on the heat dissipation part and configured to be in close contact with the second surface of the controller, and
a heat blocking ring mounted on an outer periphery of the heat dissipation part and configured to prevent the heat dissipation part from exchanging heat with an external component, except for the controller.
