Refrigerant System (IHKS and IHKA): Notes
The Refrigerant System transfers heat from the vehicle interior to the outside atmosphere providing the heater assembly with dehumidified cool air. The system is a sealed, closed loop, filled with a charge weight (350 gms) of R134a refrigerant as the heat transfer medium. Oil is added to the refrigerant to lubricate the internal components of the compressor.
The refrigerant system consists of the following components:
- R134a Refrigerant and Lubricant
- Compressor
- Condenser
- Receiver/Drier
- Evaporator
- Expansion Valve
