Condenser




The condenser assembly in front of the radiator is made up of coils which carry refrigerant, and cooling fins to provide rapid transfer of heat. The air passing through the condenser cools the high pressure refrigerant vapor causing it to condense into a liquid.

The condenser is made of aluminum tubes on which are mounted aluminum fins.

The fins provide the cooling capacity of the condenser and should be kept clean and should not be bent or otherwise damaged.

IMPORTANT: All models are serviced with the "header type" condenser.
