DESCRIPTION
Slight variations exist among the manual A/C-heater systems
used. Either Sanden Scroll or Nippondenso 10-cylinder compressor is
used. Cycling of the compressor clutch is controlled by switches which
monitor temperatures and pressures.
Compressors will only operate within the normal operating
temperatures and pressures set for each model. An electric condenser
fan operates whenever A/C system is operating. System components used
vary depending upon model. Most systems include an A/C compressor
control unit, fan switch, evaporator, temperature sensor, high and low
(or dual) pressure switch, engine coolant temperature switch,
compressor, condenser, receiver-drier and various pipes and hoses.
