Compressor Connector Block - Typical
compare the performance of the system being tested with
the standards below:
1. Doors and windows closed.
(Vehicle inside or in
shade.)
2. Hood up and engine exhaust suitably ventilated.
3. Vehicle in NEUTRAL with engine running at 2000 rpm.
4. Air Conditioning controls set for -
• Maximum cooling.
Four-Season System - Upper lever on "Inside”
and temperature lever at "Cold.”
GM Chevrolet System - Right knob at "City.”
• High blower speed.
5. Gauge set installed.
6. System settled out (run-in approximately 10 minutes).
7. A thermometer placed in front of vehicle grille and
another in the right hand dash outlet (Four-Season
and GM Chevrolet Systems) or right rear outlet
(Roof-Mounted Systems).
PERFORMANCE DATA
The following Performance Data define normal opera
tion of the system under the above conditions. Relative
humidity does not appear in the tables because after run
ning the prescribed length of time on recirculated air
and maximum cooling, the relative humidity of the air
passing over the evaporator core will remain at approx
imately 35% to 40% regardless of the ambient tempera
ture or humidity.
Should excessive head pressures be encountered at
higher ambient temperatures, an 18" fan placed in front
of the vehicle and blowing into the condenser will provide
the extra circulation of air needed to bring the pressures
to within the limits specified.
NOTE:
Higher temperatures and pressures
will occur at higher ambient temperatures. In
areas of high humidity it is possible to have
thermometer and gauge readings approach but
not reach the figures listed in the performance
tables and still have a satisfactorily operating
unit. However, it is important to remember that
low pressure has a direct relationship to nozzle
outlet temperature. If pressure is too low, ice
will gradually form on the evaporator fins, re
stricting airflow into the passenger area and
resulting in insufficient or no cooling.
