1.2.2 Condensing Section

The condensing section includes 2 micro-channelcondenser coils, four (4) fan and motor assembliesand receiver tank assembly with sight glasses,moisture indicator and fusible plugThe condenser coils provide heat transfer surface forcondensing refrigerant gas at a high temperature andpressure into a liquid at high temperature andpressure. The condenser fans circulate ambient airacross the outside of the condenser tubes at atemperature lower than refrigerant circulating insidethe tubes; this results in condensation of therefrigerant into a liquid. The receiver tank is also

equipped with a pressure relief valve (fusible plug)which protects the system from unsafe high pressureconditions. The filter-drier, located in the evaporatorsection, removesmoisture and debris from the liquidrefrigerant before it enters the thermostaticexpansion valve in the evaporator assembly.a.

1.5 SAFETY DEVICES

System components are protected from damagecaused by unsafe operating conditions with safetydevices. Safety devices with Mobile Climate Controlsupplied equipment include high pressure switch(HPS), low pressure switch (LPS), fusible plug,circuit breakers and fuses.a. Pressure Switches

High Pressure Switch (HPS)

During the air conditioning cycle, compressor clutchoperation will automatically stop if the HPS switchcontacts open due to an unsafe operating condition.OpeningHPS contacts de-energizes the compressorclutch shutting down the compressor. The highpressure switch (HPS) is installed at the compressorassembly. See paragraph 1.3 for specifications.Low Pressure Switch (LPS)

The low pressure switch is installed on thecompressor assembly and opens on a pressure dropto shut down the system when a low pressurecondition occurs. See paragraph 1.3 forspecifications.

b. Fuses and Circuit Breakers

The Relay Board is protected against high current byan OEM supplied circuit breaker or fuse located inthe bus battery compartment (100 Amp for 24 VDCsystems is recommended). Independent fuses andcircuit breakers protect electrical circuits from highcurrent conditions. During a high current condition,the circuit protection may open.c. Ambient Lockout

1.6 AIR CONDITIONING REFRIGERATION CYCLE

When air conditioning (cooling) is selected by thecontroller, the unit operates as a vapor compressionsystem using R-134a as a refrigerant (See Figure 1-2refrigerant flow diagram). The main components ofthe system are the A/C compressor, air-cooledcondenser coils, filter-drier, thermostatic expansionvalve, liquid line solenoid valve and evaporator coils.The compressor raises the pressure and thetemperature of the refrigerant and forces it into thecondenser tubes. The condenser fan circulatessurrounding air (which is at a temperature lower thanthe refrigerant) over the outside of the condensertubes. Heat transfer is established from therefrigerant (inside the tubes) to the condenser air(flowing over the tubes). The condenser tubes havefins designed to improve the transfer of heat fromthe refrigerant gas to the air; this removal of heatcauses the refrigerant to liquefy, thus liquidrefrigerant leaves the condenser and flows to thefilter-drier.The refrigerant passes through a filter-drier where adesiccant keeps the refrigerant clean and dry.From the filter-drier, the liquid refrigerant then flowsthrough the liquid line to the sight-glass and then tothe thermostatic expansion valve. The thermalexpansion valve reduces pressure and temperature ofthe liquid andmeters the flow of liquid refrigerant tothe evaporator to obtain maximum use of theevaporator heat transfer surface.The low pressure, low temperature liquid that flowsinto the evaporator tubes is colder than the air that iscirculated over the evaporator tubes by the

evaporator fans. Heat transfer is established from theevaporator air (flowing over the tubes) to therefrigerant (flowing inside the tubes). Theevaporator tubes have aluminum fins to increaseheat transfer from the air to the refrigerant; thereforethe cooler air is circulated to the interior of the bus.The transfer of heat from the air to the lowtemperature liquid refrigerant in the evaporatorcauses the liquid to vaporize. This low temperature,low pressure vapor passes through the suction lineand returns to the compressor where the cyclerepeats.

1.7 HEATING CYCLEHeating circuit (See Figure 1-3) componentsfurnished by Mobile Climate Control include theheater cores and solenoid operated heat valve.Components furnished by the bus manufacturermay include a water temperature switch (WTS),boost water pump and floor blower convectors.The controller automatically controls the heat valvesduring the heating mode to maintain requiredtemperatures inside the bus. Engine coolant (glycolsolution) is circulated through the heating circuit bythe engine and an auxiliary boost water pump.Whenthe heat valve solenoids are de-energized, the valveswill open to allow engine coolant to flow through theheater coils. The valves are normally open.NOTE: In order to ensure water is entering theheater coils sufficiently heated, it is suggested that theOEM supplied Water Temperature Switch (WTS),(If equipped) close on temperature rise at 105°F(40.5°C).

In the event a high pressure or low pressurecondition occurs, the compressor and liquid linesolenoid will be disabled for a minimum of oneminute. High or Low pressure can be triggered byeither a pressure transducer or physical pressureswitch.

1) For high pressure condition, the condenserand evaporator fan circuits remain energized to bringthe system pressure down. After the one minutecompressor “Off” cycle, if pressures return tooperational limits, the compressor circuit willre-energize.

If the high pressure condition occurs more thanfour (4) times within a 20 minute period, thecompressor, LLS and condenser circuits will belocked out and an alarm will be broadcast to theDriver display and A/C Fail light.

2) For low pressure condition, the condenserand evaporator fan circuits remain energized. Afterthe one minute compressor “Off” cycle, if pressuresreturn to operational limits, the compressor circuitwill re-energize.If the low pressure condition occurs more than

four (4) times within a 20 minute period, thecompressor, LLS and condenser circuit will belocked out and an alarm will be broadcast to theDriver display and A/C Fail light.b. High or Low Transducer Failure

In the event a high pressure or low pressuretransducer fails, the compressor, liquid line solenoidand condenser fans will remain energized, and thecompressor will unload to two (2) cylinder operationto allow the system to provide 33% capacity untilcondition can be corrected. High and low pressureswitches will disable the cooling circuit in the eventsystem pressures reach an unsafe condition.c. Sensor Failures

In the event an out of range (Open/Short)condition occurs with the Return Air, Outside Air,Deice, or Coil sensors, the system will be unable torecognize these parameters for proper operation ofA/C system. If one of these conditions occurs, theController will trigger a code on the display to alertDriver of this condition.

When alarms occur, the ERROR screen will assist in identifying the cause of the alarm. Follow instructions inSection 2.4.7 for instructions for accessing the ERROR screens.

4.4.3. Removing Entire System Charge

NOTESIt is recommended that the Filter/Drier bereplaced after opening the refrigeration sys­tem for any repair.

WARNING

Use of an electro-magnetic valve as ameans of positive shutoff for service isnot recommended or good service prac­tice.

CAUTION

For Safety, the bus and A/C systemshould be OFF, and lockout/tag outprocedures should be implemented.

To remove the entire refrigerant charge for systemcomponent repair, do the following:

a. Connect a manifold gauge set to the system asshown in Figure 4-5.

b. Connect a reclaimer to the center manifold gaugeset connection.

c. Energize the Liquid Line Solenoid Valve (LSV)(Item 12 in Figure 4-5) using an external powersource (24 VDC).

d. Recover refrigerant in accordance with reclaimermanufacturers instructions.

e. After repair is completed, a leak check should beperformed prior to system evacuation/dehydra­tion and charging. Refer to paragraph 4.5.

4.5 REFRIGERANT LEAK CHECK

A refrigerant leak check should always be performedafter the system has been opened to replace or repaira component. To check for leaks in the refrigerationsystem, perform the following procedure:

NOTEIt is emphasized that only the correct refrig­erant should be used to pressurize the sys­tem. Use of any other refrigerant will con­taminate the system.

a. Ensure the service valves are open.b. Energize the Liquid Line Solenoid Valve (LSV)(Item 12 in Figure 4-5) using an external powersource (24 VDC).

c. If system is without refrigerant, charge systemwith refrigerant vapor to build up pressure toapproximately 30 PSIG (R-134a).

d. Add sufficient nitrogen to raise system pressure to150 to 200 psig (10.21 to 13.61 bar).

e. Check for leaks. The recommended procedure forfinding leaks in a system is with an electronic leakdetector. Testing joints with soap suds is satisfac­tory and may be necessary under conditions whenan electronic leak detector will not function cor­rectly.

f. Remove test gas.g. Evacuate and dehydrate the system. Refer to para­graph 4.6.

h. Charge the unit. Refer to Section 4.7.

4.6 EVACUATION AND DEHYDRATION

4.6.1 GeneralThe presence of moisture in a refrigeration systemcan have many undesirable effects. The mostcommon are copper plating, acid sludge formation,“freezing-up” of metering devices by free water, andformation of acids, resulting in metal corrosion. Atriple evacuation (Refer to paragraph 4.6.4) shouldbe performed after a major system repair(compressor, evaporator, or condenserreplacement). A one time evacuation (Refer toparagraph 4.6.3) should take place after a minorsystem repair (replacement of a solenoid valve or afilter drier).4.6.2 Preparation

NOTEUsing a compound gauge for determinationof vacuum level is not recommended be­cause of its inherent inaccuracy.

a. Evacuate and dehydrate only after pressure leaktest. Refer to paragraph 4.5.

Page 41: OPERATION/SERVICE MANUAL for

4-8© 2015 Mobile Climate Control T-367 Rev. 07/2015

g. With the clearance set, hold each set screw whiletightening the lock nuts to 7 ft/lbs.

h. Reconnect wiring and test clutch operation.4.14.6 Compressor Oil LevelTo check, and if required correct, the compressor oillevel do the following:a. Operate the coach for at least one-half hour at fastidle speed, with the temperature controls at thecoolest setting, and the compressor fully loaded. Itmay benecessary to pre-heat the coach and/or op­erate the system in the reheat mode to keep thecompressor fully loaded throughout this proce­dure

b. Ensure the system is fully charged (refer to para­graph 4.7) and the compressor crankcase is warmto the touch after fifteen minutes of operation.

c. Shut off the system and immediately record the oillevel in the compressor sight glass. SeeFigure 4-14. If the compressor is not level, an aver­age between the sight glass levels will have to bemade to determine level.

d. The correct oil level for this application should bebetween the Min/Max of the oil level sightglass.See Figure 4-14. If the oil level is correct, releasethe coach into service. If the level is above thesightglass maximum, proceed to step e. If the levelis below the sightglass minimum proceed to step f.

e. To remove oil and bring the level between theMin/Max sightglass markings, do the following:1.With the system off, connect a manifold gaugeset to the compressor suction and discharge ser­vice valves. Front seat the service valves to isolatethe compressor from the system (SeeFigure 4-13) and reclaim the refrigerant to belowatmospheric pressure. Shut off the reclaimer andverify the pressure does not rise. If the pressurerises, continue reclaiming until the pressure re­mains below atmospheric.

WARNINGExtreme care must be taken to ensurethat all the refrigerant has been removedfrom the compressor crankcase or the re­sultant pressure will forcibly dischargecompressor oil.

2.Drain or pump out compressor oil until the lev­el is brought between the Min/Max markings.3.Evacuate the compressor to 500microns. Back­seat the compressor service valves and repeat theoil level check procedure.

f. To add oil to the compressor, do the following:1.With the system off, connect a manifold gaugeset to the compressor suction and discharge ser­vice valves. Front seat both service valves to iso­late the compressor from the system (SeeFigure 4-13) and reclaim the refrigerant to belowatmospheric pressure. Shut off the reclaimer andverify the pressure does not rise. If the pressurerises, continue reclaiming until the pressure re­mains below atmospheric.2.Add oil to compressor crankcase slowly,through the oil fill plug opening (see Figure 4-14)to bring level to mid range of allowed levels.3.Evacuate compressor to 500 microns. Backseatcompressor suction and discharge valves, startsystem and recheck oil level.4.Remove manifold gauge set.

4.14.7 Checking Unloader OperationTo check unloader operation do the following:a. Install a manifold gauge set as shown inFigure 4-13. Ensure both manifold valves arefrontseated and center connection is tight onblank fitting.

b.Midseat compressor suction service valve.c. Disconnect the suction pressure transducer. Thiswill force the controller to energize the unload­er(s).

d. Start the bus and run in cooling, lower set point ifrequired to ensure system remains in full speedcooling.

e. Locate the unloader connector at the compressor.Observe manifold suction gauge while unpluggingthe connector. Pressure should decrease 3 to 5 psi(0.2 to 0.4 bar) when the unloader is unpluggedand increase the same amount as the plug is recon­nected. Repeat test for second unloader if fitted.

Page 53: OPERATION/SERVICE MANUAL for

4-20© 2015 Mobile Climate Control T-367 Rev. 07/2015

f. If pressures do not react as described, check un­loader coil or repair unloader mechanism as re­quired.

g. When testing is complete, reconnect transducerand unloader connectors and remove manifold

gauge set.h.Disconnection of the suction pressure transducerwill cause an alarm. Once the transducer is recon­nected, the alarm will go to inactive and can thenbe cleared.

4.15 TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHECKOUT

a. An accurate ohmmeter must be used to check re­sistance values shown in Table 4-1.

b.Due to variations and inaccuracies in ohmmeters,thermometers or other test equipment, a readingwithin two percent of the chart value would beconsidered acceptable. If a sensor is bad, the resist­ance value would usually be much higher or lowerthan the value given in Table 4-1.

c. At least one sensor lead must be disconnectedfrom the controller before any reading can be tak­en. Not doing so will result in a false reading. Twopreferred methods of determining the actual testtemperature at the sensor are an ice bath at 32°F(0°C) and/or a calibrated digital temperature me­ter.

4.16 PRESSURE TRANSDUCER CHECKOUT

NOTESystemmust be operating to check transduc­ers.

a. With the system running use the driver display andmanifold gauges to check suction and/or dis­charge pressure(s) simultaneously.

b.Determine with the gauges whether one or bothpressure readouts are correct. If one is correct, ex­change the pressure transducer locations. If theproblem moves with the transducer, replace thefaulty transducer.

c. If the driver display read out disagrees with bothvalues shown on the manifold gauges proceed tostep d.

d. Verify that the wiring to the transducer(s) is ingood condition.

e. Use a digital volt-ohmmeter to measure voltageacross the transducer connector corresponding toterminals A & B. See Figure 4-17. The readingshould be 5.0 VDC.

f. Use a digital volt-ohmmeter to measure voltageacross the transducer at terminals A & C. SeeFigure 4-17. Compare to values in Table 4-2. Areading within two percent of the values in thetable would be considered good.
