Compressor unit 4.4.1 General 4.4.2 Cooling operation mode The BlueCool S-Series is an air-conditioning system with its four The air-conditioning system absorbs heat form the cabin air in the basic components, i.e. compressor, condenser, evaporator and evaporator and cools it down by approx. 15°K. The cooled air is throttle element.

4.4.3 Heating operation mode Heat can also be generated with the BlueCool S-Series air-condi- tioning system. A 4-way reversing valve is installed in the system for this purpose. As a result, the condenser becomes an evapora- tor and vice versa. The sea water heat exchanger (now evapora- tor) takes available heat away from the sea water which is then transferred to the refrigerant.
Type S27” on page 33. ■ The system must be accessible for service and maintenance pur- poses. ■ The BlueCool S-Series must be mounted on an even, horizontal surface. ■ Since operation of the BlueCool S-Series leads to condensation, two drain lines must be provided on the condensed-water tray.

The transition boxes behind the supply air grilles serve as an equal- air flow. All Webasto fans can be mounted in several positions to isation volume for the air flow and thus reduce the noise level of enable a straight outlet out of the fan.
The entire air conditioning system must be protected by an exter- nal circuit breaker. With the BlueCool S-Series S20 and S27, not only the power sup- ply of the PCB, but also a separate power supply for the compres- sor must be provided, which must also be protected externally.
The mains connection for the compressor must be produced via a separate supply line (fusing 16 A with S20, 20 A with S27). Installing soft start It is possible to retrofit the Webasto BlueCool Soft Start in the Fig.11 InstallationBlueCool MyTouch electrical box.
Accessories 6.7.1 BlueCool Expert Tool The BlueCool Expert Tool, which enables easy setting, actuation and diagnostics, is available for the BlueCool S-Series.
