AIR CONDITIONER
Operation and maintenance

1. COMPONENTS OF AIR CONDITIONING


1. Compressor
D Pressurizes refrigerant and makes it circulate.
D Mounted to front end of diesel engine and driven by it, using a V–belt drive.
2. Magnetic clutch of compressor
D When dead, the clutch lets the compressor idle; when live, it engages the
compressor drive.
D The magnetic clutch is controlled by the thermostat, the pressostat, and the air
conditioning fan switch.
3. Condenser
D Transfers heat to outside air, changing refrigerant vapour into liquid.
D The condenser unit comprises a cell and a fan.
D The condenser is located on the side of the hydraulic oil receiver.
4. Drier
D The purpose of the drier is to remove moisture from the system (danger of
freezing).
D Refrigerant flows through a particle filter and moisture absorbing medium. The
drier is provided with a sight glass in the top cover for checking refrigerant flow.
D The drier must always be replaced if it has been empty longer than 30 minutes; long
exposure to air destroys the drier
5. Pressostat
D Functions as a pressure switch, cutting off electricity to the compressor’s magnetic
clutch if the system pressure drops too low or rises too high.
D Located with the drier in the condenser housing.
6. Evaporator cell
D Absorbs heat and condenses humidity from the ambient air.
D Turns liquid refrigerant into vapour.
D Located in the cabin.
7. Expansion valve
D Regulates the refrigerant flow into the evaporator.
D Located in the evaporator cabin, connected to the line from the drier.
D The valve has a spindle, controlled by a membrane, that regulates the flow to the
evaporator according to a sensor.
D The liquid-filled sensor is connected to the line coming from the evaporator.
D If too much refrigerant flows through the evaporator, the liquid in the sensor cools
down (volume decreases), and the valve closes – the operation is reversed if too
little refrigerant flows through.

Operation and maintenance

8. Fan
D Blows air through the evaporator into the cabin.
D Located in the evaporator housing in the cabin.
D The fan switch controls the magnetic clutch of the air conditioner compressor; air
conditioning operates only if the fan is in operation.
9. Thermostat
D Controls cabin temperature when air conditioning is on.
D The regulating switch is located on the evaporator housing.
D Controls the operation of compressor magnetic clutch: turns compressor to idle
when the set temperature is reached (cuts off current to magnetic clutch).
10. Heater valve
D The valve is used for regulating the amount of water flowing through the heater cell.
D Located on the heater.
11. Heater cell
D Transfers heat to the cabin air from the hot engine coolant flowing through the cell.
D Located in the evaporator housing in the cabin.
12. Air filter
D Removes dust from the incoming air.
D Located in the evaporator housing outside the cabin.
D The air cleaner should be cleaned with pressurized air and replaced regularly; the
service interval greatly depends on the quality of the surrounding air.
13. Control switch
D The air conditioning system is turned on and off with the control switch located in
the control panel in the cabin.

AIR CONDITIONER
Operation and maintenance

2. OPERATION
The compressor circulates refrigerant R134a in a closed circuit system.
D Refrigerant vapour pressurized by the compressor is led through the condenser
(3). As the temperature of the vapour is higher than the ambient temperature, it
loses heat to the outside air. This loss of heat condenses the vapour to liquid form.
The condenser has a fan (a) to provide necessary cooling.
D The liquid refrigerant flows through the drier (4). Moisture is the severest problem
in air conditioners, and thus it must be removed as completely as possible. Water
will freeze in the circuit!
D Next, the liquid refrigerant flows through the expansion valve (7) to the evaporator
(6). The expansion valve controls the amount of refrigerant entering the evaporator
cell by choking the flow.
D The refrigerant entering the evaporator absorbs heat from the surrounding air. Air
from the cabin is circulated through the evaporator by a fan (8), whereby heat is
absorbed and moisture condenses from the air to the cold surfaces of the
evaporator. Due to its low boiling point, the refrigerant again changes into vapour
in the evaporator.
D Then the refrigerant vapour enters the intake side of the compressor, and the
circulation continues as described above.

3.3. How to make the most of the air conditioner


D Fan speed and air temperature are easily adjustable. Do not use a higher fan
speed than necessary. Always reduce the fan speed first, if you feel that the cabin
temperature is too low, and then adjust the temperature of the incoming air with the
thermostat.
D Adjust the air vents so that the air flow in the cabin feels comfortable. Never direct
the air flow against yourself.
D Keep air recirculation on and the windows closed. In this way, the unit works best,
and you can avoid outside noise, exhaust fumes, dust, etc.
D Do not keep the cabin temperature too low. Remember that your body does not like
great changes in temperature. Adjust the temperature to find the temperature
difference that suits you best. The cabin temperature should not be adjusted more
than 5–7 the temperature pleasant
for yourself, not according to the thermometer reading. Using the air conditioner
simultaneously with the heater prevents the windows from becoming foggy, as the
air conditioner removes humidity from the air.
D Humid air is heavy to breathe. The air conditioner reduces the air humidity in the
cabin, and you feel more comfortable.

3.4. Periodic maintenance


The system should be checked once a week.
Points to check:
1. Set the engine speed to 1500 rpm.
2. Turn the air conditioner on.
3. Turn the fan and the thermostat to maximum.

3.5. Cold and dry spells, when the unit is rarely used
Start the cooling system, and allow the compressor to run a few minutes once a week, to
keep the connections, sealings, etc. lubricated. If a low–pressure switch is connected to
the system, it must be bypassed if the ambient temperature drops below –1
Otherwise, the compressor will not start.

Operation
Air conditioning is switched on with the control switch (1) (located on the top of the device),
provided with an indicator light (2). However, the current to this switch comes through the
fan control switch (3); if the fan is on, the switch (1) also receives current. When the fan
switch (3) is in the 0–position, the air conditioning system does not work, because the the
switch (1) gets no current.
The fan switch (3) has three positions for different speeds. In position 1, the current to the
fan motor (5) goes through the resistor (4), whereas in position 2 only part of the current
goes through the resistor (4), and the fan speed is higher. In position 3, the current flows
directly to the fan motor (5).
When air conditioning is switched on, current flows from switch (1) to the thermostat (6).
The thermostat is used for selecting the desired temperature of the air. If the temperature
rises above the set value, the thermostat closes. The current coming from the thermostat
(6) flows to the pressostat (8). If the system has the required amount of refrigerant
(pressure is sufficient), the pressostat keeps the electric circuit closed, and current flows
to the magnetic clutch (10) of the air conditioner compressor. When live, the clutch
engages the compressor drive; the compressor drive pulley revolves always when the
engine is running, but the compressor will rotate only when the magnetic clutch (in the
pulley) becomes live and engages the drive. When the drive is engaged, the magnetic
clutch in the pulley rotates with it; when the clutch is dead, only the pulley rotates.

2. FILLING OF PUMP UNIT CONTAINER


The capacity of the pump unit tank is 2 kg.
The filling pump (Cf. Fig.) is suitable for greases of NLGI 0–2 grade. The container size
can be 10 – 20 kg. The output of the filling pump is 0.1 kg / pumping stroke.

Filling of pumping unit:


1. Place intermediate cover (10) into tank (18).
2. Fasten tank cover (11) with screws.
3. Install pump unit (12) through tank cover to intermediate cover (10).
4. Fasten filling hose (13) to pump.
5. Let air flow out of pump by holding quick coupling (14) open (e.g. with a screw
driver) while pumping in grease.
6. Connect quick coupling (14) to male coupling (15) on pump unit (1).
7. Operate pump with calm movements (90°), until pumping resistance increases.
8. Turn filling pump lever up (30°) to free the pump.
9. Disconnect quick coupling (14) and fit protective plugs to both parts of quick
coupling.
10. After filling, let pressure out of pump unit (1) by opening bleed screw (16). This is
to ensure the operation of the dispensers.

If excessive power is required to operate the filling pump, check and


clean the filling pump filter. The filter should be cleaned at least once a
year.
CAUTION

The filtering screen (17) of the pump is located in the filling line of the tank. To clean the
filtering screen, remove the quick coupling part (15).
