Filter reservoir
Filter reservoir (1) is attached by means of a
support collar on the right longitudinal girder.
Its function in the AC unit operation is : -filtering the refrigeran t fluid;
-r etaining the humidity from the unit;
-f orming of a buffer stock of refrigerant
fluid.
The particles interception is necessary because
it might block the thermostatic expansion vale
operation or produce compressor mobile parts
wear or gripping. The filter reservoir is not to be repaired.
DISMOUNTIN G
Disconnect the battery.
Drain the AC unit.
Dism ount t he pi pi ng a nd pro t e c t wi t h
protection caps in order to avoid humidity
penetration. Dismount the filter reservoir off the support
collar and release it.
REMOU NT I NG
Perform the dismounting operations in the
reverse order. Fill the AC unit with refrigerant fluid HFC
134a (0,600 Kg) by means of the c harging
station.
Check for refrigerant fluid leaks.
When replacing the filter reservoir, fill in
the circuit with 15 ml of oil PA G S P 10 .
REMARK
The tightening required moment of
the pipes nuts at the filter reservoir is of
1,4 –2 daNm.
The required tightening moment of
the attachmen t screw of the filter
re servoir support is of 0,7 daNm.

The AC unit piping is ensuring the refrigeran t
fluid circulation between the unit components.
When piping is replaced, check the existence
of the protective caps, the l ubrication of the
connections and gaskets with compressor oil.
The unit fillin g and draining valves are placed
on the c ompressor piping a nd they different
diameters, so that they can not be reversed.
