Evaporator Core: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: LHD model shown. RHD model similar.
The A/C evaporator (1) for the heating-A/C system is located within the HVAC housing, behind the instrument panel. The A/C evaporator and its
insulator (2) are positioned in the HVAC housing so that all air entering the housing must pass over the evaporator fins before it is distributed through
the heating-A/C system ducts and outlets. However, air passing over the evaporator fins will only be conditioned when the A/C compressor is engaged
and circulating refrigerant through the A/C evaporator.
The A/C evaporator tubes (3) are connected and sealed to the A/C expansion valve by use of rubber O-rings (4) and a tapping block (5).
The A/C evaporator can only be serviced by removing and disassembling the HVAC housing assembly.
