About

Ac system bench

➢ Conducting Vehicle full ac system charge determination, TXV (Thermal expansion valve) tuning& selection test, AC Evaporator icing test, Evaporator sensor location test, water condensation, water drainage, water scattering, Full AC performance test, Fuel efficiency test

➢ Conducting Front HVAC System (Hatchback, sedan cars), Front &Rear HVAC systems (SUV Cars)

➢ Heat Pump Performance tests based on vapor compression refrigeration cycle - Coefficient of Performance (COP), power input, heat output, and overall system efficiency under various operating conditions. (Theoretical & Experimental calculation data)

➢ PTC heater Positive temperature co efficient) Performance tests- heating rate, temperature response, and power characteristics - As temperature increases, current decreases — confirming self-regulating thermal behavior.

➢ Conducting above test for our customer Hyundai, Kia, Ford, Renault Nissan, MG Auto, Mahindra& Volkswagen

➢ Conducting test for Car ac comp all types (Fixed displacement, Variable displacement with clutch& without clutch) & Electric comp

External corrosion

➢ Conduction Ac components& engine cooling components& Sub assembly parts external corrosion

➢ Understanding the corrosion resistance coating& White & red rust analysis

➢ Conduct Air tightness tests of all tested components (or condenser, radiator, Intercooler, ac pipes, oil cooler)

➢ Conduct tear down analysis for leak failure parts (To finds brazing contact)

FM600

➢ Conducting air flow volume, PQ test for blower capacity, air flow distribution, air flow classification tests as per vehicle condition

➢ Handling air flow static pressure control, Relative humidity based on psychometric chart

Known as appropriate rig preparation for Ac system components& engine cooling components to validate performance& durability tests (Ac comp Belt tightness, wrap angle, Pulley straightness, spit level indicator, Heating ventilation air conditioning (HVAC)Mounting, etc.,)

➢ Calculate optimum charge determination amount, Ac Evaporator sensor location finding, Ac comp torque, Ac comp Horse power, Heat rejection, Heat balance (Air side & R134A Refrigerant side) Oil circulation ratio, super heat& sub cool (via mollier diagram), etc.,

➢ In-depth knowledge of testing tools _Appropriate temporary/ permanent fasteners and tools, Electric/ pneumatic gun& cutter.
