Compressor AC Auto DCP21015 For Peugeot 2008 208 For CitroenC3/C4/DS3 WXPG043

The AC compressor is responsible for reducing the volume of the refrigerant gas, compressing it in order to complete the refrigerant cycle in the system. It can be thought of as the component that does all the heavy lifting. In order to perform this task, it requires energy, which it obtains from the engine through a pulley and shaft.

Air Is Cool, Not Cold

One indication of a potential issue with your vehicle's air conditioning system is if the air coming from the interior vents doesn't feel as cold as it used to, despite having the AC switched on, temperature lowered, and fan set at a higher speed. This could be a subtle warning sign that there might be a problem with the air conditioning system. The two common culprits for such issues are either a refrigerant leak within the system, causing the loss of refrigerant, or a defective AC compressor.

If you notice that the air conditioning system isn't providing the same level of cooling as before, it is advisable to have it inspected by a professional technician. They can diagnose the problem and recommend the appropriate course of action to rectify the issue, be it addressing a refrigerant leak or repairing/replacing the AC compressor. Taking prompt action can help prevent further damage to the system and ensure optimal performance of the vehicle's air conditioning system.

Working Principle

The basic working principle of the automobile air conditioning compressor is to suck low-pressure cold gas (usually refrigerant) into the compressor cavity through the driving device, and then compress it into high-pressure and high-temperature gas.

Compressors usually use piston or screw compressors. In a piston compressor, the piston moves up and down in the cavity, and the cold gas is compressed by the movement of the piston. In a screw compressor, the screw compresses the cold gas. The compression process of the compressor increases the pressure and temperature of the cold gas. The high-pressure and high-temperature gas will then enter the condenser and be converted into high-pressure hot gas through heat dissipation, then cool and expand through the expansion valve, and finally enter the evaporator to prepare for circulation again.

Throughout the process, the compressor provides compression and conversion capabilities and is one of the key components to realize the automotive air conditioning refrigeration cycle.

Signs of AC Compressor Failure

Detecting AC compressor issues early can save you from costly repairs and uncomfortable rides. Look out for these signs:

· Weak or Warm Air: If the air coming from your vents feels weaker or warmer than normal, this could be a sign of compressor issues.

· Loud Noises: Strange sounds like clunking or squealing when the AC is turned on may suggest compressor problems.

· AC Clutch Not Engaging: When you switch on the AC, the clutch should engage with an audible click. If it doesn't, the compressor may be malfunctioning.

· Leaking Refrigerant: If you notice puddles or stains under your car, it could point to refrigerant leaks and stress on the compressor.

· Increased Engine Load: A failing compressor can strain the engine, making it work harder and possibly affecting its performance.

· Visible Damage: Physical damage to the compressor, such as dents, leaks, or loose components, requires immediate attention.

· Odd Smells: A musty or bad odor when the AC is on may indicate contamination within the system.

In conclusion, maintaining your car’s AC compressor is essential for enjoying a comfortable ride during hot weather.
