A/C Compressor Clutch - Description






A/C CLUTCH






NOTE: Typical A/C clutch assembly shown.

The A/C compressor clutch assembly consists of a stationary electromagnetic field coil (4), bearing and pulley assembly (3), shims (7) and a clutch plate (2) that is splined to the compressor shaft and secured by a bolt (1). These components provide the means to engage and disengage the A/C compressor from the engine accessory drive belt.

The A/C clutch bearing and pulley assembly and field coil are retained to the front of the compressor with snap rings (5 and 6).
