1.3. Description of the air conditioner (B2600)
GB
This air conditioner has been designed and manufactured to be installed
onto vehicles (i.e. camping-cars, caravans, motorhomes) to improve the
temperature conditions. It supplies fresh and dehumidifi ed air in summer
and warm air in winter without, in any case, replacing the heating system
of the vehicle. In both cases, temperature is set by the user.
Fresh air - Running
The system is inclusive of: compressor ( a ), condenser ( b ), evapora-
tor ( d ) and refrigerant gas under pressure. According to the physical
state of the refrigerant gas -i.e. liquid or gaseous, it heats or cools the
components where it passes through.
Fan ( c ) forces the internal air through the cooled evaporator from where
it comes out cooled down and dehumidifi ed.
This action, protracted over the time, reduces the temperature into
the vehicle.
Hot air – Description of operation
The refrigerant gas cycle can be inverted by a solenoid valve (f). The
heat accumulated by the refrigerant gas is dispersed by the internal
heat exchanger which uses the fan (c) to deliver the heat into the
passenger compartment. Over time, this increases the temperature
inside the vehicle.
