Compressor P72
Removal Procedure
- Discharge and recover the refrigerant
from the system. Refer to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging
.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Refer to
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing
any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to
the vehicle or its components.
in General Information.
- Disconnect the electrical connector to the magnetic drive clutch.
- Remove the accessory drive belt from the
compressor pulley. Refer to Accessory Drive Belt in Engine Mechanical.
- Disconnect the refrigerant hose assemblies from the compressor.
- Cap or plug all open connections.
- Remove the short mounting bolts and the nuts.
- Remove the vacuum pump.
- Drain the long compressor mounting bolts,
the washers and the vacuum pump mounting bracket.
- Remove the bolt that secures the compressor to the compressor
mounting bracket.
- Remove the bracket mounting bolts. Remove the compressor mounting
bracket.
- Drain the oil from the compressor though
the connectors and the oil drain hole.
- Check the quantity and the amount of contamination of the oil
drained from the compressor.
Installation Procedure
- Install 236 ml (8 fl oz)
of oil in the Harrison compressor.
- Use the bracket mounting bolts to install the compressor mounting
bracket onto the engine.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the bolt which secures the compressor to the compressor
mounting bracket.
- Install the compressor on the mounting bracket.
- Install the vacuum pump mounting bracket on the compressor using
the washers, the long mounting bolts and the nuts.
- Using the short bolts, install the vacuum
pump on the mounting bracket.
- Connect the refrigerant hoses to the compressor.
- Install the accessory drive belt over the pulley. Refer to Accessory
Drive Belt in Engine Mechanical.
- Evacuate the air from the system and charge with refrigerant.
Refer to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging
or the coach manufacturer's
service manual.
Compressor P92
Removal Procedure
- If the compressor is operational, perform the oil return procedure.
Refer to
Oil Return Procedure
.
- Discharge and recover refrigerant from the system. Refer to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging
.

in General Information.
- Disconnect the electrical connector from
the magnetic drive clutch.
- Remove the accessory drive belt from the
compressor pulley. Refer to Accesssory Drive Belt Replacement in Engine Mechanical.
- Disconnect the refrigerant hose assemblies from the compressor.
Cap or plug all open connections.
- Remove the bolts, the washers, the lockwashers, the spacers, and
the nuts.
- Remove the compressor from the engine.
- Drain the oil from the compressor through
the connectors and the oil drain hole.
- Check the quantity and the amount of contamination of the oil
that was drained from the compressor.
Installation Procedure
- New compressors are filled with compressor
oil and N2 gas. Perform the following steps when you install a new compressor:
1.1. | Loosen the discharge-side connector's cap and gently release N2
from the compressor. Do not release compressor oil. |
1.2. | Slowly rotate the compressor's magnetic clutch several times by
hand in order to distribute the oil which has settled in the cylinders. |
- Pour the oil into the compressor. The
quantity of oil you should use is shown on the information plate attached
to the compressor housing.
- Install the compressor on the engine.
- Install the bolts, the washers, the lockwashers and the spacers.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Important: Due to the pressure feed lubrication system, the compressor must be
mounted within 45 degrees vertically and 10 degrees horizontally of an upright
position. Ensure that the compressor is upright when you install it.
- Connect the refrigerant hoses to the compressor.
- Install the accessory drive belt over
the pulley. Refer to Accessory Drive Belt Replacement in Engine Mechanical.
- Measure the distance from the upper compressor mounting bracket
to the accessory drive belt. The distance must be 39.488 mm (1.55 in)
in order for the pulley to be aligned properly.
- Connect the electrical wires to the magnetic drive clutch.
- Evacuate air from the system and charge with refrigerant. Refer
to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging
or the coach manufacturer's
service manual.
