REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
Refrigerant CycleINFOID:0000000004040375
REFRIGERANT FLOW
The refrigerant flows in the standard pattern, that is, through the compressor, the condenser with liquid tank,
through the front and rear evaporators, and back to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation through the
evaporator coils are controlled by front and rear externally equalized expansion valves, located inside the front
and rear evaporator cases.
Refrigerant System ProtectionINFOID:0000000004040376
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
The refrigerant system is protected against excessively hi gh or low pressures by the refrigerant pressure sen-
sor, located on the condenser. If the system pressure rises above or falls below the specifications, the refriger-
ant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the refrigerant line and sends a voltage signal to the ECM.
The ECM de-energizes the A/C relay to disengage the magnetic compressor clutch when pressure on the high
pressure side detected by refrigerant pressu re sensor is over about 2,746 kPa (28 kg/cm
2, 398 psi), or below
about 120 kPa (1.22 kg/cm
2, 17.4 psi).
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system incr eases to an abnormal level [more than 2,990 kPa (30.5 kg/
