REMOUNTING
Perform the dismounting
operations in the reverse order.
Fill the refrigerant circuit and check the good operation of the climate control system.
NOTE
Ensure that evaporator finned plates are not deformed and they are not excessive
dirty.
The tightening nuts for the climate and conditioning assembly, the connections for piping,
condenser and filter tank, must have the following tightening moments:
- thread 3/4” – 16 pitch/l” – at t he moment 18-20 Nm;
- thread 5/8” - 18 pitch/l” – at the m oment 14-20 Nm.
The tightening moment of the compressor flange attachment screw -12+/-1,2 Nm.
The tightening moment of the thermostatic probe attachment screw -5,7+/-0,5 Nm.
The tightening moment of the pressure capture - 20,7+/-2 Nm.
NOTE
After each operation that implies t he disconnection of t he battery, at its reconnection,
introduce the radio code that is written on the vehicle-selling invoice. EVAPORATOR

The compressor is absorbing the vapors coming from the evaporator at low pressure and
temperature, is compressing them and convey the gas at high temperature and pressure. The refrigerant fluid in high pressure and temperature vapor condition is entering in the second
he at exchanger, which by condensation is transmitting the heat to the external environmental.
At the exit from the condenser, the refrigerant fl uid is in liquid condition, at a high pressure and temperature.
Type of compressor: SD 7Y15
Compressor oil : PAG SP 10 or SP20, volume –135 cmc.
Refrigerant: HFC 134 a, quantity of refrigerant : 0.590 kg

Disconnect the compressor’s connection.
Disconnect the pipes from the compressor.
Dismount the belt tensioning screw and release the belt.
Dismount the compressor attachment screws.
Dismount the compressor.
Replace the compressor.
REMOUNTING
Perform in the reverse order the dismounting operations.

THE CONDENSER
The condenser is placed on the cooling radiator, in the front part of the vehicle and is ensuring
the exhaust of the refrigerant heat accumulated at compression.
In order to grant the optimum condenser operation, frequently check if its outside surfaces are
always clean and the air penetration is not stopped. Also, check the condenser pipes in order not
to show deformations. CONDENSER

PRESSURE CONTROLLER
(low pressure, high pressure, medium pressure, in accordance
with the specification) or pressure capture
- low pressure – disconnect when the pressure in the low pressure circuit is lower than
1,96 +/-0,2 bar , reestablishing at a higher pressure than 2,16 +/- 0,2 bar; - higher pressure – disconnect when the pressure in the high pressure circuit is higher than
31,4 +/-2 bar , reestablishing at a higher pre ssure than 25,5 +/-2 bar; - medium pre ssure - start s the bl ower on t he second level speed, when t he pressure i s
higher than 17,7+/-1bar and stops the blower at a lower pressure 13,7+/- 1,2.
Thermostatic expansion valve allows the reduction of the refrigerant liquid pressure which is
coming from t he condenser, passing through the tank filter and i s continuously adjusting the
refrigerant flow from the evaporator, to reach the compressor in vapor condition. PRESSURE CONTROLLER
The good operation of the air conditioning unit is ensured by a dryer filter tank that ha s the
purpose to protect the unit. The filter’s purpose is to absorb the eventually solid particles found
in the oil and refrigerant liquid circulation.
The interception is needed as they might block the operation of the thermostatic expansion
valve or may produce the compressor mobile parts worn or gripping.
DETECTION OF REFRIGERANT F LUID LEAKAGE
In order to detect the refrigerant liquid leakage, it is used a detector, calibrated to detect
leakage of 9gr. /year.

DRY
ER FILTER TANK
The dryer filter tank has a triple function in the air conditioning unit:
- filtering the refrigerant fluid from the unit;
- absorbing the moisture from the unit;
- it is a buffer storage tank of refrigerant fluid.
DRY ER FILTER TANK
REMOUNTING
Perform the dismounting operations in the reverse order.
Fill the refrigerant circuit, check the leakage and the good operation of the unit.
AT TENT ION
Do not mount dryer fi lter tanks that do not have protection covers. DRY

Disconnect the connector of the air conditioning pressure controller.
Dismount the receiver tank filter from the collar support.
Replace the tank filter.

UNIT PIPING
The air conditioning unit piping is ensuring the refrigerant fluid circulation between the unit
components. When piping is replaced, check the existence of the protective covers, the lubrication
of the connections and gaskets with compressor oil as well as filling up with compressor oil.
The unit filling and draining valves are placed on the compressor piping and they have different
diameters, so that they can not be reversed.
NOTE
For tightening or loosening the unit piping connections where the refrigerant fluid is
passing through, two special wrenches are to be used, in order to balance the moments’ twist.
