(10) Pressure Switch
Pressure Switch
1) HI Pressure Side
1. Connect the manifold gauge (5) to compressor as following
procedure.
Close the
HI and LO pressure valves (3), (4) of manifold gauge
tightly, and connect the charging hoses (2), (1) (red and blue) to
the respective compressor service valves. (Refer to “[1]
HANDLING OF SERVICE TOOLS” in this section)
NOTE
Q
• Be sure to drive out the air in the charging hoses at the
manifold gauge connection end by utilizing the refrigerant
pressure in the refrigerant cycle.
2. Start the engine and set at approx. 1500 min
−
1
(rpm). Turn on
the A/C switch, then set the blower switch to HI position.
3. Raise pressure on the HI pressure side of the refrigerant cycle by
covering the condenser front with a corrugated carboard, and the
pressure switch is activated and the compressor magnetic clutch
is turned off. At this time, read the
HI pressure gauge of the
manifold gauge. If this pressure reading differs largely with the
setting pressure, replace the pressure switch with a new one.
2) LO Pressure Side
1. Disconnect 2P connector (6) of pressure switch.
2. Measure the resistance with an ohmmeter across the connector
terminals.
3. If 0 ohm is not indicated at normal condition, there is no
refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle because gas leaks or
pressure switch is defective.
(Reference)
• The resistance of pressure switch is 0 ohm in normal condition,
but it becomes infinity if the pressure is out of factory spec..
Because the pressure switch starts to work.
