COMPRESSOR

INSPECT COMPRESSOR OIL

When replacing the compressor with motor assembly with a new one, gradually discharge the refrigerant gas from the service valve, and drain the following amount of oil from the new compressor with motor assembly before installation.

Standard
(Oil capacity inside the new compressor with motor assembly: 130 to 145 cc (4.4 to 4.9 fl.oz.)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor with motor assembly) = (Oil amount to be removed from the new compressor)

Note

If a new compressor with motor assembly is installed without removing some oil, there will be too much oil in the system due to the oil remaining in the pipes of the vehicle. Excessive oil in the system prevents heat exchange in the refrigeration cycle and causes ineffective cooling.
If the amount of oil remaining in the old compressor with motor assembly is too small, check the air conditioning system for oil leaks.
Be sure to use ND-OIL 11 or equivalent compressor oil. If any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 is used, compressor with motor assembly insulation performance may decrease, resulting in a leak of electric power.

INSTALL COMPRESSOR WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY
