| 1) |
The pressure in refrigerant circuits with regulating air
conditioner compressor is held to approx. 2 bar despite changing heat
transport and differing engine speeds. This applies however only within
the rated range of the air conditioner compressor; if the rated range of
the air conditioner compressor is exceeded, the pressure will increase

The temperature in refrigerant circuits with regulating
air conditioner compressor is held within the regulation range of the
air conditioner compressor despite changing heat transport and differing
engine speeds. This applies however only within the rated range of the
air conditioner compressor; if the rated range of the air conditioner
compressor is exceeded, the temperature will increase.

Measured values for air conditioning systems with two
evaporators |
 Note
| Air conditioning system compressors that do not
self-regulate their load are switched off by the respective
control unit via the air conditioner compressor regulating valve
-N280- when an evaporator temperature less than 0°C is sensed. |
| In vehicles with air conditioner compressor regulating valve
-N280-, the pressure on the low-pressure side is varied by
activating the valve. |
