PROCEDURE
INSPECT COMPRESSOR OIL
| *A | w/o Thermostat |
| *B | w/ Thermostat |
When replacing the compressor assembly with magnet clutch with a new one, gradually discharge the refrigerant gas from the service valve, and drain the following amount of oil from the new compressor assembly with magnet clutch before installation.
| Standard |
|---|
| (Oil capacity inside the new compressor assembly with magnet clutch: 150 to 165 cc (5.07 to 5.58 fl.oz)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor assembly with magnet clutch) = (Oil amount to be removed from the new compressor) |
Note
If a new compressor assembly with magnet clutch 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 assembly with magnet clutch is too small, check the air conditioning system for oil leaks.
Be sure to use ND-OIL 8 or equivalent compressor oil. If any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 8 is used, compressor assembly with magnet clutch insulation performance may decrease, resulting in a leak of electric power.
