Removal and installation of the compressor of a central air of air

Air central air constantly is under a high pressure. At all do not disconnect refrigerator lines and do not remove any components of system, preliminary without having executed a discharge of last. The discharge of a central air of air should be made by forces of the skilled expert in the conditions of a car-care centre workshop. At рассоединении refrigerator lines necessarily put on goggles!

At replacement of components of a central air of air the certain quantity of replaceable refrigerator oil necessary for filling of volume of new knot is required. Use only the oil suitable for the use in systems R-134a (attentively study a label on the container).

Compressor K/V is not among components subject to regenerative repair and in default should be replaced together with a receiver-dehumidifier.

Removal

PERFORMANCE ORDER

Make a discharge of a central air in the conditions of a specialised workshop.
Cock a lay brake, поддомкратьте redock of the car and establish it on props, at a corresponding complete set remove protection картера.
Disconnect a negative wire from the battery.

In summary make gymnastics of system and its check on leaks in the conditions of a specialised workshop.
At installation of the new compressor, check up oil level, in case of need make corresponding updating. Calculation of volume of the coolant necessary for filling of volume of the new compressor is made as follows:
1. Merge refrigerator oil from the compressor removed from the car in measured capacity through soaking up union.
2. Subtract result of measurement from value of 160 ml.
3. Also it is necessary to fill in the volume of a coolant received as a result of subtraction in the new compressor.
Start of the new compressor is made as follows:
1. Open дефлекторы all air lines on the panel of devices and allow to the engine to work on single turns within five seconds.
2. Include the heater fan for the maximum speed.
3. Not less than for 2 minutes activate a central air, at turns of the engine less than 1500 in a minute.
