3/6/22, 11:17 AM 508 (R8) - C5HD010RP0 - 33 - 23/07/2021 - Maintenance : Air conditioning circuit effectiveness

MAINTENANCE : AIR CONDITIONING CIRCUIT EFFECTIVENESS

ESSENTIAL : Any personnel working on an electric or rechargeable hybrid vehicle must have received electric vehicle-specific training
and be authorised to work on these vehicles (please observe the regulations that are in force in the country concerned).

1. Workshop equipment
Equipment necessary for the check :
Air conditioning circuit filling and recycling station
Thermometer
Hygrometer
Diagbox (Automatic procedure) or Service Box (Manual procedure)

2. Method of checking
2.1. Preliminary checks
Make the following checks :
Operation of the aircon compressor clutch (according to equipment)
Condition of the air conditioning compressor belt
General condition of the air conditioning pipes
Condition of the front face of the vehicle (fan assembly, condenser, etc.)
Check of the pollen filter

2.2. Dynamic pressures check

Place the vehicle in a protected area (out of wind, sun, etc.).
Vehicle configuration :
Connect a charging and recycling station to the air conditioning circuit
Doors and windows closed
Bonnet closed
Engine running and warm
Engine speed at idle
Wait for the fan to switch on at the first speed (Air conditioning not operating)

Position of the air conditioning controls (In the case of automatic air conditioning) :
Set the temperature to all cold mode
Activate the windscreen demisting mode (visibility mode)
Close all the air vents

For your information, the "windscreen deicing mode (visibility mode)" requires the following conditions to be met :
Air conditioning in the on position
Air blower on the maximum position
Air distribution in deicing position
Air inlet in the exterior air position

Position of the air conditioning controls (In the case of manual air conditioning) :
Set the temperature to all cold mode
Move the air distribution control to the deicing position
Place the air blower control on maximum
Activate the air conditioning function (Indicator lamp lit)
Place the air intake in the exterior air position
Close all the air vents

Measure the ambient humidity and temperature of the workshop.

CAUTION : Position the thermometer at the windscreen demisting vent.

Note the following values after the air conditioning has been operating for 3 minutes :

3/6/22, 11:17 AM 508 (R8) - C5HD010RP0 - 33 - 23/07/2021 - Maintenance : Air conditioning circuit effectiveness
Air temperature at the outlet of the windscreen demisting vents
Air conditioning circuit high pressure
Air conditioning circuit low pressure

3. Interpretation of the values

3.1. Automatic procedure (Vehicles listed in Diagbox)
Refer to the tool Diagbox in the Maintenance menu.
The tool Diagbox evaluates the efficiency of the cold loop with reference to the conformity graphs.
3.2. Manual procedure (Vehicles not listed in DiagBox)

N.B. : Remove and visually check the pollen filter before suggesting replacement of the pollen filter to the customer.

N.B. : If the customer complains of an unpleasant odour in his air conditioning, carry out an olfactory test of the air conditioning and
suggest antibacterial treatment of the air conditioning to the customer.

Print the assessment available at the following (URL) address depending on language.
Follow the efficiency test procedure.

Print the whole air conditioning assessment dossier.

Complete the air conditioning assessment manually.
Use the generic graph.
3.3. Using the graph

Figure : C5HD00UD

"T1" : Deicing vent temperature (in °C).

"T2" : Workshop ambient temperature (in °C).
"P" : Pressure in the air conditioning circuit (in bars).
"A" : Air conditioning circuit high pressure reference zone.
"B" : Reference graph for deicing vent temperature (± 5°C) depending on the workshop ambient humidity (from 30 to 100%).
"C" : Air conditioning circuit low pressure reference zone.
Operations to be done on the print-out :
Find the workshop temperature on the graph : This temperature is to be found on the horizontal axis (T2)
Relate the low pressure to the ambient temperature with reference to the right-hand scale (P)
Relate the high pressure to the ambient temperature with reference to the right-hand scale (P)
Relate the measured air vent temperature to the ambient temperature with reference to the left-hand scale (T1)
Check the position of each value in relation to the corresponding graph and note their position: below, conforming to or above the
reference

4. Using the formula matrix and interpreting the results
