Refrigerant system (R-134a),
components

A/C compressor


The compressor is driven via a belt on the engine when the A/C clutch
engages (A/C ON).
Low pressure refrigerant gas from the evaporator is compressed by the
compressor. After compression, the refrigerant gas (now high pressure)
flows to the condenser.
The variable displacement A/C compressor varies piston stroke and
output depending on load requirements and suction pressure.
Notes:
Zexel A/C compressors were installed from start of production. During
m.y. 1996, Nippondenso (Denso) type compressors are installed as a
running change. These compressors are not equipped with A/C speed
sensor G111. The compressor contains PAG type refrigerant oil that is mixable
under all temperatures with refrigerant R-134a. A label on the compressor indicates that compressor is for R-134a
systems only.
