Refrigerant oil

Refrigerant oils from containers which have been open for a longer period of time are unusable.

Because refrigerant oil is very hygroscopic, opened containers must be closed airtight immediately after use to prevent moisture from entering.

Refrigerant oil can be obtained using following part number for
6SES14C; Denso	G 052 300 A2
11PXE14; Sanden	G 052 154 A2
6CVC140; Delphi.	G 052 154 A2 /G 052 300 A2
Hybrid; Visteon	G 052 535 M2

Type	Total capacity → Remark
6SES14C; Denso	110 ± 10 cm ³
11PXE14; Sanden	75 ± 10 cm ³
6CVC140, Delphi	110 ± 10 cm ³
