you weld components which contains flammable materials, remove them from the welding area.
 Keep handy a fire extinguisher.

START ENGINE WITH BOOSTER CABLES (JUMP START)

When starting the engine with booster cables, observe the following.

■ CAUTIONS WHEN CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING THE BOOSTER CABLES

WARNING
 When you start the engine with booster cables, wear safety goggles.
 Ensure the positive (+) terminal does not contact the negative (-) terminal when connecting the
cables.
 When starting the engine with an other machine, be careful that the normal machine does not
touch the disabled machine.
 Prevent sparks around the battery; they could cause battery gases to explode.
 Make sure that the booster cable connections are correct. The last cable is connected to the
upper structure, but connect it as far as possible from the battery. (However, do not connect to
the attachments).
 When disconnecting the booster cables from the battery, disconnect in the reverse order.

IMPORTANT
 Booster cables and clips should be sized according to the battery capacity
 Use the same capacity battery and system voltage as the disabled machine

1. The Definition of Air Conditioning
In general, air conditioner is an apparatus, used for controlling the temperature and humidity of an
enclosed area in order to get the most comfortable air for humans and to maintain the temperature to
required needs for objects. To that end, the following requirements should be properly accomplished.
(1) Dry-bulb temperature and its distribution(temperature)
(2) Air humidity and its distribution(humidity)
(3) Air flow(air current)
(4) Air freshness(cleanness)
If any of the following requirements is not properly accomplished, the original purpose can not be
achieved.
Air conditioning falls into two categories depending on its serving subject: comfort air conditioning and
industrial air conditioning. Comfort air conditioning means air conditioning in houses, offices,
department stores, theaters and a variety of buses and cars and industrial air conditioning means air
conditioning aimed at maintaining the temperature suitable for production and preservation of products
in textile mills, confectionary plants and each refrigerator car.

2. The Structure of Air Conditioning System


The air conditioning system basically consists of 4 main parts in accordance with the refrigerant
operation.

(1) Compressor :
The compressor is a belt driven pump that is fastened to the engine. It is responsible for compressing
refrigerant gas of low pressure and low temperature as high pressure and high temperature gas and
transferring the gas to the condenser.
• Magnetic clutch is mounted to control the compressor.
(2) Condenser :
The condenser is located in front of the vehicle. As hot compressed gasses are introduced into the
condenser, they are cooled off. As the gas cools, it condenses as a high pressure and high
temperature liquid.
• Hot compressed gasses transferred from the compressor are cooled off and condensed in this
condenser.
(3) Expansion valve :
The expansion valve is very efficient at regulating refrigerant flow to the evaporator. As high pressure
refrigerant is passing through this valve, it rapidly becomes low temperature and low pressure wet
vapor.
(4) Evaporator :
Misty refrigerant enters the evaporator as a low pressure liquid. The warm air passing through the
evaporator fins caused the refrigerant to boil. As the refrigerant begins to boil, it can absorb large
amount of heat.
(The surrounding environment is cooled off.)

Refrigerant circulates through the closed-circuit system and its components. Refrigerant repeats this
kind of circulation and it is referred to as “Cooling Cycle.” What happens in the refrigerant circulation in
the cycle is related to changing pressure and temperature as the refrigerant becomes a gas and is
condensed as a liquid back.
The cooling system is based on a few unchanged physical principles.
These principles are discussed in the section concerning what is happening to refrigerant when the
cooling system is in operation.
Refrigerant gas is drawn into the intake side of the compressor and compressed and discharged as
high temperature and high pressure gas. The compressed gas is sent to the condenser and then
cooled off by the cooling fan. As the gas cools, it condenses because its latent heat is absorbed by the
air traveling through the condenser. The condensed refrigerant is sent to the receiver-drier and the
receiver-drier removes moisture and filters out dirt. Then the refrigerant is introduced into the
expansion valve.
The high pressure liquid refrigerant rapidly expands in the valve and becomes low temperature and
low pressure misty refrigerant. Then it goes to the evaporator.
HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL 21
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 01
AIR CONDITIONER
3
The misty refrigerant enters the evaporator and absorbs latent heat of vaporization from the air
introduced through the blower, providing cooling. At the same time, it becomes from misty state to
gaseous state and drawn into the compressor again.
As mentioned above, the refrigerant repeatedly circulates in the cooling cycle providing cooling.
In general, the gas needs to be compressed to become liquid. But it becomes easier by cooling off at
the same time while compressing. Therefore, both the compressor and the condenser are needed for
the car air conditioner.

4. Refrigerant
A refrigerant is a substance used to provide cooling. It absorbs and radiates heat while circling in the
closed-circuit cooling cycle.
4-1) Characteristics of Refrigerant
There are various types of refrigerant. In the cooling system, mainly R-12(CFC:Chloro Fluoro
Carbon)was used. But its use has been regulated since it was proved that Freon gas results in
damage of ozone layer. Consequently, new refrigerant R-134a(HFC) has been used.
4-2) Characteristics of R-134a(Hydro Fluoro Carbon)
(1) Merits
① Alternative refrigerant to R-12, containing no chlorine causing damage of Ozone layer.
② Chemically safe
③ Thermal properties most similar to R-12
④ Incombustibility and no toxicity
(2) Demerits
① low refrigeration capacity at the same condensation temperature as R-12
(To get the same refrigerating capacity of R-12, the condensation temperature should be lowered.)
② Change of refrigeration oil due to the insolubility of R-12 refrigeration oil
③ Problems concerning absorptiveness of R-134a refrigeration oil and change of Rubber quality
④ Problems concerning moisture permeability of R-12 Freon hose(Nitrile)
4-3) Flammable HC(Hydrocarbon) refrigerants
(1) Use depending on its type
① R-290(Propane), R-1270(Propylene)
• Applied to most heat pumps for heating and residential home in some countries in Europe
② R-600(Butane), R-600a(isobutane)
• Mainly used for household refrigerators
• The Auto-Ignition Temperature of 460℃ and very small refrigerant charge
(2) Characteristics
① GWP, Global Warming Potential(3) and ODP, Ozone Depletion Potential(0)
② It is inexpensive and only a small quantity can work.
③ Easy to use (well mixed with mineral lubricant)
④ Flammable and non-toxic
(3) The regulation of hydrocarbon refrigerants
① Europe
• CEN Standard EN 378 (specifies safety and surrounding conditions for refrigerators and heat pump
systems)
- Among the systems providing comfort, it is banned from applying to the direct systems (household air
conditioners and car air conditioners).
• Specified in German standard DIN 7003 and NPR 7600 of the Netherlands.
- Hydrocarbon refrigerant is applied on a limited basis depending on the room size and the number of
residents.
② The United States
• ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 15
- Flammable refrigerants (refrigerants classified as A3) are banned from using for high-risk systems
(namely direct system).
21 HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL

01 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

③ IEC(International Electrotechnical Commission) Publication
• Specifies the quantity of flammable refrigerants which is able to make 335-2-40 - 130㎥ room
flammable

(4) Possibility of being used as substitutes for R-134a


① Hydrocarbon refrigerants work similarly to R-134a, but if they are used for a long period, a leak from
hoses or the Fitting part is expected due to different components of refrigeration oil.
② The use of two kinds of hydrocarbon blends can raise the possibility of explosion
(Hydrocarbon blends for car air conditioning systems in the market all use more than two kinds of
refrigerants.)
③ If air is drawn into imperfect vacuum conditions by a system leak, the possibility of explosion will be
raised.
④ A systematic review is needed for the potential flame sources due to metal spark in the rotating part of
the compressor and other safety devices.
⑤ When mixed with R-134a, hydrocarbon refrigerants aren’t recyclable.
⑥ For hydrocarbon refrigerants, concentration is more important than the absolute quantity of refrigerant.
Even with a very small quantity, if hydrocarbon blends reach the combustion concentration, there can
be an explosion.

(5) Substitutes for R-134a


① The Kyoto Protocol
• Industrialized nations who sign up to the treaty are legally bound to reduce worldwide emissions by
an average of 5.2% below their 1990 levels by the period 2008-2012.
• HFC refrigerant(R-134a) should be also reduced in accordance with the treaty.
② Decision by the European parliament
• The use of HC refrigerants will be prohibited for new car air conditioning systems beginning in 2011
and for all kinds of automobiles in 2017.
• Pursuing a system change to CO2(BMW is expected to mass-produce in 2008.)
③ R-152a: under consideration for North America OEM

5. Components of the Air Conditioning System


5-1) COMPRESSOR
The compressor is responsible for raising pressure of refrigerant gas, namely for compressing it.
Refrigerant is circulated in the cycle due to this compressor. When compared to the human body,
refrigerant can be referred to as the blood and the compressor can be referred to as the heart.
(1) The Functions of COMPRESSOR
Specifically speaking, the intake side of the compressor draws in low pressure refrigerant gas from the
outlet of the evaporator. Once the refrigerant is drawn into the intake side, it is compressed and sent to
the condenser. Therefore, the refrigerant can be circulated in the cycle and the heat drawn from the
inside of the vehicle in the evaporator is sent to the condenser by the compressor and radiates heat to
the air passing through the condenser.
① Sucking:
The compressor lowers the refrigerant pressure in the evaporator so that liquid refrigerant can
evaporate at low temperature.
② Compressing:
The compressor compresses the evaporated refrigerant and sends it to the condenser where it can
condense at normal temperature.
③ Pumping:
The refrigerant can be circulated due to the above-mentioned sucking and compressing functions and
a consecutive work cycle is formed.

(2) Compressor Inspection


① Inspection for clutch operation
※ Connect the battery(+) terminal to the compressor side terminal and earth the battery(-) terminal
to the compressor Body.
If it is in normal condition, you can hear the “click” sound from the magnetic clutch.

② Inspection for the clutch AIR-GAP


Air-gap gauge

※ Inspect whether the clutch air-gap is a required value.


21 HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL

01 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AIR CONDITIONER

(3) Causes for faulty compressor


① Insufficient lubrication due to a lack of refrigerant(low refrigerant charge, refrigerant leak)
The oil in the A/C System provides the lubrication by being sprayed on compressor’s working part
(Swash plate &Piston) in misty condition while circulating with the refrigerant. If there is a lack of
refrigerant, the oil amount drawn into the compressor also decreases, diminishing the lubrication and
lowering air conditioning performance at the same time. Then, the intake temperature goes up to
create abnormal superheat. Consequently, early damage to the operating friction part can result in,
thus causing stick occurring.
• If the air conditioning capacity is lowered, you need to instantly inspect the refrigerant amount and
recharge it.
• In the winter time when the air conditioner is not in use, operate it periodically(one time in two weeks)
at an idle condition to enhance the circulation of the refrigerant and the oil.

② Liquid compression due to the inflow of liquid refrigerant


Liquid compression by overcharge of refrigerant and the unevaporated liquid refrigerant introduced
into the compressor causes overload to the compressor’s working part, resulting in compressor
damage and stick of disk slip occurrence.
When the A/C system is turned on at high-speed after it is mounted to the vehicle, the simultaneous
outflow of the oil in the compressor occurs and low-pressure liquid refrigerant is drawn into the
compressor, wiping out the oil on the friction surface of the working part. Thus, the compressor is
operated under unlubricated condition before the compressor oil circulates, resulting in a stick.

A lack of lubrication due to the clogged refrigerant circuit


Moisture can exist in the remaining air of the system due to poor vacuum level before refrigerant
charging. It can result in expansion valve icing, causing instant circuit clogging. Thus, the compressor
is operated under unlubricated condition, resulting in a stick and a lack of lubrication.
• For moisture inflow vehicle, sufficient vacuum work(for more than 30 minutes) should be done after a
recovery of refrigerant in order to remove the moisture in the system.

Phase separation and migration of the compressor oil


The refrigerant and the oil are separated and oil is migrated by the outdoor temperature deviation
because of the nature of the new refrigerant(R-134a) if the system is transported or neglected for a
long time. Therefore, at the initial stage of the A/C operation, only the refrigerant is drawn into the
compressor, diminishing the lubrication.
• Pre-running is required with the A/C system on at an idle condition in initial days of the A/C season
after winter or for export car port.

(5) Refrigeration Oil


Refrigeration oil is charged to provide the lubrication of the compressor which pressurizes the
refrigerant.
But only specified amount should be charged since the characteristics of the old and the new
refrigerants differ as follows and air conditioning performance also varies depending on the refrigerant
charge amount.

Classification Mineral Oil PAG Oil

Applied refrigerant R-12(CFC) R-134a(HFC)

Molecular Polarity Non-polar Polar

Lubrication Excellent Good

5-2) CONDENSER
(1) Function
The condenser cools off and condenses high temperature and high pressure gas refrigerant from the
compressor.
The condenser transfers the heat inside the vehicle drawn from the evaporator to the outside of the
vehicle by taking advantage of the cooling fan and the wind by driving. Therefore, high temperature
and high pressure gas refrigerant cools off while traveling through the condenser and becomes mid-
temperature and high pressure liquid at the exit.
The condenser is usually located in front of the radiator and its location causes the amount of air
passing through the radiator decrease and the air temperature increase, thus deteriorating the
efficiency of radiator.
Therefore, the engine cooling fan should be bigger and radiator shroud should be attached in order to
support the system cooling operation and enhance the heat radiation from the condenser.

(2) Quality Characteristics


Dirt and dust accumulated on the cooling fins of the condenser reduce the efficiency of not only the
radiator but also the condenser and result in insufficient heat radiation. As a result, the condenser fails
to fully condense the refrigerant.
In some extreme cases, dirt and dust not only can be directly attributed to engine overheat but also
abnormally increase cycle pressure only to reduce the system’s cooling ability.
In addition, crushed or damaged cooling fins can result in the above-mentioned situation as they can
bring about a lack of air.
Mixed air due to insufficient air bleeding before charging refrigerant fails to fully condense in the
condenser, causing the pressure in the cycle to greatly increase. Thus, perfect air bleeding and proper
refrigerant charge are required.

5-3) RECEIVER-DRIER
(1) Function
Liquid refrigerant containing bubbles can lower the cooling ability. The primary function of the receiver-
drier is to separate gas and liquid and transfer liquid refrigerant only to the expansion valve. The
secondary purpose is to remove moisture from the refrigerant and filter out dirt.

(2) Structure
The receiver-drier contains a steel or aluminum body, baffle, desiccant, a sight glass and a safety
valve and provides the following functions.
Storing function
As shown in the below figure, it stores liquid refrigerant to send to the evaporator depending on heat
load.
Bubble-separating function
While refrigerant is condensing in the condenser, it can contain some bubbles. The receiver-drier
completely separates gas and liquid and transfers liquid refrigerant only to the expansion valve.
Moisture-removing function
It removes moisture and small amounts of debris from the refrigerant.
Recently, a sight glass is disappearing as R-134A is increasingly being used as refrigerant.

(3) Receiver Drier Check-up


The receiver drier can break down due to internal blockage.
The blocked entrance side of the receiver drier can cause the gauge pressure to rise and the blocked
exit decreases the gauge pressure, reducing the cooling ability.
The excessively cold discharge pipe of the receiver drier means a blockage in the receiver drier.

5-4) Dual Pressure Switch


(1) Function
It is mounted to the upper part of the receiver drier.
It is connected to the A/C relay and turns it off to shut off the compressor if abnormal pressure
occurs.
Dual pressure s/w serves as a safety device and it is operated by the refrigerant pressure in the
system.
If the air conditioning system is turned on with no refrigerant in it, the compressor continues to run
with the evaporator not cooled. Therefore, overheating can result in damage to the compressor.
In this case, the dual pressure s/w is turned off to cut off the power to the A/C relay.
Conversely, overcharged refrigerant or blocked system rapidly increases the pressure of refrigerant,
resulting in damage to the compressor and the system. In order to prevent this, the dual pressure
switch is turned off.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 01

5-5) EXPANSION VALVE


Mid-temperature and high-pressure liquid state refrigerant is introduced into the expansion valve
under normal operating conditions and becomes low-temperature and low pressure state while
passing through the orifice valve.
This liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the air and exits the evaporator as a gaseous state. At this
time, the temperature of gaseous refrigerant goes up a little higher than that of the liquid state. The
amount of liquid-state refrigerant passing through the expansion valve is controlled by the thermostatic
valve and the pressure of the liquid-state refrigerant in the evaporator. In short, the expansion valve
controls the amount of refrigerant coming into the evaporator.

(1) ANGLE TYPE


Structure
The expansion valve is opened and closed by the size of gas pressure in the sensitive tube. High-
pressure and high-temperature liquid refrigerant drawn from the receiver drier is turned into low-
pressure and Low-temperature misty vapor by throttling and transferred to the evaporator.
• SENSITIVE TUBE • DIAPHRAM
• BALL • P/SPRING
• FILTER
Operating Principle
The opening and closing of the expansion valve is automatically controlled by three forces, the
pressure in the sensitive tube containing liquid or gas (P1), the pressure of evaporator outlet (P2) and
the spring tension (F).
• Pressure in the sensitive tube (P1) …… Press the diaphragm downward (Valve opened)
• Pressure of Evaporator outlet (P2) …… Move the diaphragm upward. (Valve closed)
• Spring Tension(F) …… Move the ball upward (Valve closed)

(2) BLOCK TYPE (High sensitivity Expansion valve)


Structure
The expansion valve is usually attached to the evaporator entrance and senses the temperature of the
evaporator outlet by using the sensitive tube. But the high- sensitivity expansion valve exhibits
excellent sensitivity since it is assembled in the middle of the evaporator entrance and the outlet.
21 HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL

01 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AIR CONDITIONER

Operating Principle
If room temperature is high, the pressure of the evaporator outlet is transferred to the diaphragm,
causing the pressure to rise and opening the valve.
• PB: Gas pressure in the diaphragm
(pressure change by gas pressure & TL temperature)
• PL:Evaporator outlet pressure
• TL:Evaporator outlet temperature
• Fs:Spring Tension

☞ The refrigerant gas at the evaporator


outlet comes into the expansion valve
to sense PL and TL.
- Operated like the ANGLE Type

Features
• The heat sensors are quick to respond to fluctuations in heat load because they have direct contact
with the refrigerant. (approximately 17 times quicker than usual)
• Even with fluctuations in heat load, it can enhance the performance of evaporator because it is good
at controlling a flow rate of the refrigerant so as to consistently maintaining a proper degree of
superheat.
• When the system is initially operated, the cool-down in the vehicles is okay.

5-6) EVAPORATOR
(1) Function
As the low-temperature and low-pressure misty refrigerant is traveling through the evaporator core,
warm air passing through fins and plate evaporates the refrigerant into low-temperature and low-
pressure gas, providing cool air inside the vehicle.
(2) Quality Characteristics
The amount of heat which is cooled in the evaporator is determined by heat sources both inside and
outside of the vehicle and solar radiation. During the cooling process, moisture contained in the air
condenses on its surface. So, the structure should be designed to discharge this condensed water.
Moreover, if the system is operated in high-temperature and humid conditions, micro-organisms can
propagate on the evaporator surface, causing a bad smell. Thus, an anti-bacterial system is required
to prevent the propagation of the micro-organism on the surface.
(3) Structure
There are three types of evaporators. First, a dry evaporator consists of aluminum alloy cooling tube,
cooling fins and the distributor (fin under tube type). For a laminated evaporator, fins are attached
between thin rectangular aluminum plates. Lastly, a serpentine evaporator consists of colgate fins
which exist within 5mm-thick flat porous serpentine tube.

5-7) Duct Sensor


(1) Function
The duct sensor detects the temperature of the evaporator core to keep the evaporator from freezing
and turns the compressor on or off to provide a continuous pleasant atmosphere.
In addition, the resistance inside the duct sensor chip increases with temperature decreasing and
decreases with temperature rising thank to NTC (Negative Temperature Cofficient) duct sensor.

(2) Test for the Duct Sensor Working


Connect the multi-tester to the duct sensor and measure output voltage.
If the measured output voltage is beyond the defined range, find out what is wrong through item
inspection.
If the measured voltage is normal, check out resistance properties depending on duct sensor
temperature so as to on/off working is in normal condition.

5-8) BLOWER
(1) Function
The blower forcefully blows air into the evaporator, turning hot and humid air into low-temperature and
moist air so that it can be carried off to the inside of the vehicle.
Air flow has a great impact on the cooling ability. In general, for the cooling capacity of
3600 4000㎉/h, a blower motor of 180 210W is used and mostly a centrifugal fan is used.
(2) Structure
A centrifugal fan is mounted on the motor and the edge of the fan is the synthetic resin case. Air is
introduced into the center from the centrifugal fan and its case shape makes a contribution to good-
efficient air flow.
(3) Features of Centrifugal Fan
Simple structure and capable of being used at low wind pressure and low horsepower
Small shape and less noise
(4) Control parts and control circuit
The rotating of the blower motor is controlled by using a resistor to control motor current.

(2) It heats the inside of the car for driver and rider to have pleasant and comfortable feeling in the car.
(3) It prevents the car front window and other windows from being frozen or dimmed for safe driving.
(4) Generally for passenger car, it is installed at the center in front of the driver’s seat.
(5) For BUS type cars, it consists of DEFROSTER UNIT (1 each) installed at the side of the driver’s
seat and indoor units (2~4 each) installed under the passenger seats

3-2) Operation Principle of Heater


1) The heat source, Engine cooling water, is heated up to about 85 by the combustion heat of engine
using fuel.
2) This cooling water is passed to the radiator through hot water piping.
3) When the cooling water passing through radiator, heat is exchanged between the air forced to be
flown in by Blower Unit fan and radiator, so that the air is heated up to about 65 .
4) This heated air heats the car going around inside the car.

2-1) Noise is made as V-belt is getting loosen.
If V-belt is loosen or too much worn, frictional sound (halt) is made. Adjust the V-belt tension. If torn
away, replace it.
2-2) Abnormal noise is made around Compressor.
Check the compressor and installed bracket bolts are loosen. If loosen, tighten them.
2-3) Abnormal noise is made from Compressor.
Abnormal noise inside the compressor may indicate damage of Suction Valve. Detach it for repair or
replace it with a new one.
2-4) Condenser is stained with clay and dust.
Clay and dust remarkably degrade the heating effect influencing cooling capability. Wash out such
clay and dust with water. At the moment, make sure that the pin is not damaged or distorted.
2-5) Piping Connection Part and Compressor Part are contaminated with oil.
The part contaminated with oil indicates that refrigerant leaks with compressor oil from the cycle due to
some reason. If any contamination is found, check the relevant part by gas leakage sensor and tighten
it or replace it with a new one.
Compressor O-ring, connected parts O-Ring and shaft seal part should be checked fully.
2-6) Abnormal noise is made from Fan Motor.
If Fan Motor makes abnormal noise or defective turning, replace the Fan Motor with a new one.
Such abnormal noise may be made by alien substance inside the fan or defective joint of the fan.
Work on this matter with full care.

4. Air-Con System Checking and Adjustment
4-1) Note for Working with Refrigerant:
(1) Refrigerant is frozen at low temp.
Touching it by skin may make you frostbitten and touching it by eye may makes you blind.

Note
If the refrigerant gets in your eyes or contacts your skin:
Wash it with fresh water and then get treatment by optical or skin doctor.
Do not scrub eyes with hands or handkerchief.

(2) For refrigerant wok, the work site should be well ventilated and clean. Refrigerant is harmless.
If, however, it is largely discharged in closed place,
Oxygen gets reduced.
Exposure Allowance Limit: 1,000ppm(4,184㎎/㎡)
- If risk increases by exposure,
You may get abnormality in/on the parts as follow:
heart, cardiovascular system, immune system,
allergy, respiratory organs and skin.

(3) While working on refrigerant, get any flammable and firing object away from the car.
Make sure that the refrigerant container is not exposed to heat.
Otherwise, it may burst or explode.
HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL 21

(4) A/CON parts are sealed to prevent dust inflow.
Remove the cap before work. Seal it after work.
PAG cooling oil for R-134a absorbs moisture more easily than the oil for R-12. Its absorption rate is
about 10 times MINERAL cooling oil.
Too much moisture may make trouble on the compressor circulation and then affect durability.

(4) Add the refrigerant oil after replace any of A/CON parts or check the refrigerant.

(7) When detaching A/CON System and installing it again, spread cooling oil onto O-Ring.
Briefly assemble the bolt type connection part by hands and then tighten it using 2 spanners so that
the tube cannot be twisted. Then, tighten it to meet its specified torque.
Make sure that O-Ring is not bitten due to careless work and the refrigerant shall not leak.

(8) When connecting the pipes, make sure that O-Ring part shall not be contaminated by alien
substance or deformed. Coat them with cooling oil (PAG) and then assemble them.

(9) Promptly detach and attach them so that dust or moisture cannot penetrate into the air-con system.

(10) After working on refrigerant, operate the air-con for about 5min in Idle state and then use it.
(After working on refrigerant, if the air-con is operated by turning the engine at high speed, the
compressor may be broken.)

(11) Before collecting the refrigerant completely, do not detach the A/CON System.
Otherwise, the refrigerant and oil are discharged into the air by the system inner pressure and then
pollute the ambient environment.

(12) Inject specified volume of refrigerant.


If the compressor inner part is broken or it is broken by penetration of alien substance and moisture,
Receiver Drier is also recommended to be replaced with a new one.

4-2) Note for Maintenance


(1) If the air-con performance gets loose, check the volume of refrigerant and recharge it immediately.
(Using it for a long period with little volume of refrigerant may make the compressor broken.)

(2) Condenser needs to be cleaned periodically.


If the condenser is stained by alien substance (soil, weed and etc) on its outer surface, abnormally
high pressure is made degrading the cooling performance and generating high pressure cycle that
cause the compressor to be broken. Periodic check is needed.

3) Internal filter built in HVAC Unit and external filter should be cleaned and replaced with new ones
periodically.

4-3) Working Method on A/CON Refrigerant
To secure A/CON performance and Compressor durability, it is basically needed to keep proper
volume of refrigerant inside the SYSTEM. The system vacuum state and injection method largely
influence the compressor. Therefore, before injecting refrigerant, clearly understand the refrigerant
injection method and correctly work on it.
A/CON refrigerant work should be done in the order as follows. If possible, use automatic
collecting/charging device to prevent working error.

4-4) A/CON Refrigerant Collecting and Charging Method

(1) When using MANIFOLD GAUGE


1) Refrigerant Discharging (Manifold Gauge Used)
When Manifold Gauge is used, "CLOSE" the high/low pressure valves and then the high/low
pressure hose coupling to the service valve of A/CON SYSTEM.

①: Low Pressure
②: High Pressure
③: Recycling Device

☞ Important
• Do not take out refrigerant to the outdoor.
• Use HRC-134a device only.
• Check if the maintenance hose is correctly connected.

☞ Caution
• Wear protective glasses and gloves.

As shown in the figure, attach the manifold gauge and recycling device to the refrigerant line.
☞ Note
• Make sure that the low/high pressure valves’ connection parts are not switched each other.

Open the high pressure valve slowly to discharge refrigerant through the recycling device.

☞ Note
• Make sure that refrigerant does not leak and open the valve slowly.

When Manifold Gauge dial gets down to 3.5 ㎏/㎠ (50 psi) or lower, open the low pressure valve
slowly.
Until Manifold Gage dial displays 0 ㎏/㎠ (0 psi), open both high/low pressure valves slowly.
HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL 21
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 01
AIR CONDITIONER
39

2) Vacuum
After refrigerant is completely discharged, connect the discharging hose to the vacuum pump and then
open the high/low pressure valves. Operate the vacuum pump to vacuum the system inner part for
approximately 15min so that it can be fully vacuumed.

☞ Note
If vacuum is not enough, it cannot be charged and the moisture contained in the system is not
eliminated causing the expansion valve to be frozen and clogged on its circuit decreasing its
performance; and Compressor Oil reacts to the moisture and is blazed causing the compressor to be
damaged earlier.

①: Low Pressure
②: High Pressure
③: Vacuum Pump
A: Opened

Connect the manifold low pressure maintenance hose (blue) and high pressure maintenance hose
(red) to the service valve.
Connect the manifold central hose (yellow) to the vacuum pump.
Open the low/high pressure side valves and operate the vacuum pump as directed to vacuum.
Vacuum it for about 15min. When the low pressure gauge gets to the lowest safety vacuum level
(711.2~736.2 mmHg), stop the vacuum pump and close the manifold low/high pressure side
valves. Approximately 5min later, check if the gauge does not get to “0”.
• The said vacuum level can be gotten at 0m above sea level. The vacuum level decreases by
25.4mmHg as the altitude gets higher by 340m (1000 feet).
Ex) At 1524m (5000 feet) high, work with the device until the vacuum level gets to 584.2 ~ 609.7
mmHg.
When the gauge gets to 0, it indicates leakage. Check and repair the pipe connection part and then
vacuum it. Then, check if gas leaks.

☞ Note
• After vacuum is formed, close the gauge valve at high/low pressure sides. Detach the hose after
the vacuum pump completely stops. Otherwise, alien substance is sucked into.

3) Charging
After vacuuming, close the manifold high pressure valve and connect the discharging hose to the
charge cylinder. Then, open the connection part between the manifold and hose. Close the connection
part when it is full with refrigerant. Before injection, mark the correct charging volume on the charge
cylinder and open the high pressure valve to charge refrigerant through the high pressure side.

☞ Note
• Refrigerant must be charged through the high pressure side. If charged through the low pressure side,
liquid refrigerant flows into the compressor and causes the compressor to be stuck when A/CON is
turned "ON".
If not fully vacuumed, refrigerant cannot be charged. Full vacuum is needed.

①: High Pressure Gauge


②: Low Pressure Gauge
③: Refrigerant
A: High Pressure (Opened)
B: Low Pressure (Closed)

☞ Important
• Discharge the gas and vacuum before charge the gas.
• When charging the gas, do not start the engine. Charge it from the edge of the High Pressure Side and
then start the engine to charge the specified volume of gas.

☞ Caution
• When charging gas at the edge of High Pressure Side, do not start the engine. Otherwise, refrigerant
flows backward and the device may be broken; and the compressor may be damaged due to shortage
of refrigerant.

Open the high pressure valve and inject refrigerant of about 700g.
Close the high pressure valve and check if gas leaks.
After checking with the high pressure valve closed, start the engine and operate it at about
2000rpm.
Set the temp control lever at Cooling and position the blower switch at High Speed.
Open the low pressure valve and charge refrigerant until bubble disappears from Receiver Window.
When refrigerant fully charged, close the low pressure valve and stop the engine.
Test if refrigerant leaks.
• Refrigerant Volume to be Charged: 1,300g (2.866 ibs)
• Manifold Gauge Pressure (External temp is 30 (86 ).)
• High Pressure: 14.5 ~ 15 kgf/㎠ (1.42~1.47 Mpa. 206.2~213.3 psi)
• Low Pressure: 1.5 ~ 2.0 kgf/㎠ (0.15~0.19 Mpa. 21.3~28.4 psi)
HMK 300 LC-3 WORKSHOP MANUAL 21
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 01

☞ Caution
• Replace the service can after discharging the air from the charging hose (red).
• When the service can is used, connect it to the discharging hose for charging. If the ambient temp is
low, warm the service can by 40℃ or colder hot water and then charge the refrigerant.

☞ Note
• Do not turn over the service can to charge refrigerant. Put the service can on a scale so that specified
volume can be charged.

4-5) Checking of Refrigerant Volume


Refrigerant volume can be checked by seeing the pressure gauge and the flowing state of the
refrigerant shown through Check-glass of Receiver Drier. The bubble state and discharging pressure
seen through Check-glass largely depend on external temp, condenser front temp, air flow speed of
the fan, weather and etc. Therefore, check the air-con system under the conditions as follow:

(1) Operate the air-con under the conditions as follow:


• External Temp: 20 or higher
• Engine Speed: Approximately, 1500rpm
• Temp Control Lever: Positioned at the Coldest Temp
• Fan Control Switch: High
• Air-Con Switch: ON

(2) Open the hood and check the temp difference between the high pressure pipe and low pressure
pipe.
Normal:
Temp largely differs between the high pressure pipe and low pressure pipe.
(High pressure pipe is hot while low pressure pipe is cold.)
Abnormal:
• Temp little differs between the high pressure pipe and low pressure pipe.
(Refrigerant almost or completely lacks.)
• High pressure pipe is hot while low pressure pipe is cold, so that temp largely differs between
them.
(Too Much Refrigerant)

Action to Take:
If refrigerant almost lacks, discharge the air and then recharge the refrigerant. Then, check if it leaks.
If refrigerant is too much, discharge it down to the specified volume.

(3) Check the Receiver Drier Check-glass.
