The magnetic clutch design Valeo has been
promoting for more than 20 years is now gradually adopted by major market actors.
Our compressors and magnetic clutches have successfully passed the thousand hours of long validation
tests in Valeo Compressors research center laboratory. Operational excellence was demonstrated during hot
season testing on field under challenging climates in the most stressful conditions.
Being able to rely on our robust magnetic clutch provides the best way to reduce fuel consumption without
using additional unloading devices that decrease significantly the efficiency and durability of the compressor.
The range of Valeo magnetic clutches ensures an unmatched reliability and the longest durability that
perfectly matches the Valeo
