Preventive actions

In order to prevent the compressor's failure, it is convenient to periodically check the system's operating pressures and functionality of the pressure switches, make sure the condenser is clean and that the electrical system control of electric fans is working.
Refrigerant to be charged adding oil only with the appropriate equipment.It is recommended to check, at each vehicle service, the belt's tension and the condition of the compressor's brackets.

Recommended procedure for compressor's replacement

  1. Remove the defective compressor, trying to find out the defect's root cause. If problems arise, they must be solved before installing the new one.
  2. Flush effectively the system using suitable equipment and solvents, as, in most cases, damages found on the compressors sold as spare parts result from the improper performance or omission of this operation.
  3. Replace the receiver dryer.
  4. Check that the compressor has been filled in with the correct quantity and type of oil. If required by the refrigerant circuit, oil has to be proportionally added in the case of extension to the original A/C system, when there are components such as, dual evaporator, larger condenser, special vehicles with long pipelines, agricultural and earth moving machines with long distances between the compressor and system components and applications other than normal standard vehicle air conditioning.
  5. Some compressor models are supplied without oil, but with the appropriate manufacturer's specifications and instructions inside the box. In order to avoid entering incorrect oil amount and/or improper oil to damage the compressor, especially in low refrigeration circuits, follow carefully those directions.
  6. Optional: before installing the new compressor, remove on the bench the plugs from the suction / discharge ports, paying attention to possible leakages of oil and turn the clutch by hand for a few laps, in order to allow an initial lubrication.
  7. Check the polarity of the coil and keep it always complying: in some compressors, exchange of polarities may destroy the magnet.
  8. Carefully check the belt's alignment and the bolts' tightness.
  9. Charge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant and verify the operating pressures are correct.
