The engine driven refrigerant compressor (2) sucks
in gaseous refrigerant from the suction accumulator
and compresses it. The temperature of the
refrigerant rises to a value between 70 °C and 110
°C. It passes to the condenser (1) under high
pressure.
At this point heat is drawn from the refrigerant by
the air being forced past the cooling fins. Because
of this heat loss, the refrigerant liquefies and leaves
the condenser.
A fixed orifice tube (6), which separates the
refrigerant at high pressure from that at low
pressure, is located between the condenser and
the evaporator (5). This fixed orifice tube slows
down the flow of the refrigerant from the compressor, so that pressure builds up in the
condenser.
After passing through the fixed orifice tube the
liquid refrigerant expands in the circuit to the
evaporator, where it becomes gaseous. This
causes heat to be extracted from the air coming
into the vehicle. The air cools down, and excess
moisture contained in it is condensed and is
drained off. The refrigerant coming from the
evaporator flows into the refrigerant accumulator
and is again sucked in by the refrigerant
compressor.
The system is protected by a high-pressure limiting
switch, in order to prevent damage by excessive
pressure (e.g. because of overfilling with
refrigerant). If the pressure exceeds the maximum

In-vehicle temperature sensor
E97731
The interior temperature sensor measures the
temperature in the passenger compartment and
thereby also helps to control the pre-selected
interior temperature. This is an NTC resistor.
In order to achieve optimum measurement values,
an integrated blower draws air from the interior into
the in-vehicle temperature sensor.
Ambient temperature sensor
E98860
The outside-temperature sensor measures the
ambient temperature outside the vehicle. The
resistance, and so the voltage drop at the sensor,
alter depending on the outside-air temperature.
This is an NTC resistor.
Blower motor
E98855
On vehicles with electronic automatic temperature
control (EATC), a blower motor with brushes is
used.
Blower control module - vehicles equipped
with automatic temperature control
E97726
On vehicles with electronic automatic temperature
control (EATC) a blower control module is fitted
instead of the conventional blower motor resistor.
This is located in the usual position next to the
blower motor, so that the cooling fins of the module
are cooled by the air flow.
The climate control module regulates the blower
control module via a PWM signal, which in turn
regulates the voltage at the blower motor to
between 3 V and 12.8 V, in an infinitely variable
manner.
The blower control module is fitted with a
temperature monitor which continuously monitors
the internal temperature of the module. If the
temperature rises above 105°C, the blower motor
is switched off until the temperature in the module
falls to below 100°C.
If the current rises above the value of 26 A ± 3 A
defined in the blower control module (e.g. high

dynamic pressure in blower housing during fast
motorway driving), the current flow through the
blower motor is limited by the blower control
module, until a safe value is reached. If this value
cannot be achieved (e.g. blower motor blocked or
partially seized or dynamic pressure in the blower
housing permanently too high), the value is limited
to6A±2A.
Under normal conditions, the blower motor control
returns to the normal state.
