Honda AC Compressors

One component that makes an automobile's interiors comfortable even during long rides under the heat of the sun is a functional and high quality air conditioning system. The air conditioning system in vehicles is one important aspect that should not be taken for granted as it ensures that vehicle occupants will have a comfortable and pleasurable ride. That is why the system’s parts must be in perfect working condition to ensure optimum performance. Working together with the air conditioning system is the car’s heating system which is responsible for giving enough heat to the occupants when it is freezing cold outside.

When doing a routine check up on the A/C system, be sure to give attention to the following important parts – the blower housing, blower motor, compressor pulley, compressor, condenser, defroster vent, evaporator, expansion valve, heater core, high pressure line, low pressure line passenger air intake, receiver-dryer and vent. Each these parts plays an essential role in accomplishing the system’s purpose. The AC compressor is the part that works just like a household refrigerator. It is designed to move liquid refrigerant around in a pipe and pumps or forces the said liquid from the evaporator into a condenser and expansion valve then back to the evaporator.

Compressors like the Honda compressor come in three usual types including two-cylinder reciprocating piston type, the four-cylinder RADIAL type and the six-cylinder AXIAL type. From these types, you can see that the engine directly plays a role in the work of the compressor by driving it with the fan belt which then makes it take the low refrigerant from the evaporator and compresses it according to speed and air temperature. There are two pressure sides for a compressor and these are the inlet on the low pressure side and the outlet on the high pressure side. Basically, a compressor condenses the refrigerant and raises its temperature higher than that of the surrounding air making the air conditioning unit produce air cooler atmosphere.
