Technical description
The roof air conditioner supplies the interior with cool dehumidified air
without dust and dirt.
Dimmable LED lamps integrated in the air outlet unit provide pleasant lighting
(LED lights are available only on specific model).
The roof air conditioner is operated with the remote control.
NOTE
The roof air conditioner can lower the temperature within the vehicle to a
certain level. The temperature depends on the type of vehicle, the ambient
temperature and the cooling capacity of your roof air conditioner.
Below an outer temperature of 16 °C the roof air conditioner doesn’t cool
anymore. In this case only use the air conditioning mode “Circulating air” (
).
The roof air conditioner is protected against over-voltage. When the supply
voltage is above 265 V, the roof air conditioner stops working. It resumes
normal service when the supply voltage is within the allowed range.
7.1 Components
The refrigerant circuit of the roof air conditioner consists of the following
main components (fig. 1, page 3):
-
Compressor (1)
The compressor draws in the refrigerant used and compresses it. This raises the pressure and therefore the temperature of the refrigerant. -
Condenser (2)
The built-in liquefier works like a cooler or heat exchanger. The air flowing past absorbs the heat and the hot refrigerant gas cools down and becomes liquid. -
Evaporator (3)
The evaporators cool down and dehumidify the air flowing past them. The refrigerant absorbs the heat and vaporises. -
Blower (4)
A blower distributes the cooled air within the vehicle through an air outlet unit.

Disposal
Regulations for environmental safety and correct disposal
All organisations must apply a set of procedures to identify, evaluate and
control the influence that their activities (manufacturing, products,
services, etc.) have on the environment.
The procedures to be followed to identify significant environmental impact
must take the following factors into account:
- use of raw materials and natural resources
- atmospheric emissions
- discharge of liquids
- waste management and recycling
- contamination of the soil
In order to minimise environmental impact, the manufacturer provides a series of indications here below that should be taken into account by all those who, for whatever reason, interact with the appliance during its working life.
- All packing components must be disposed of (preferably recycled) in compliance with statutory legislation in the country in which disposal takes place.
- All product components must be disposed of (preferably recycled) in compliance with statutory legislation in the country in which disposal takes place.
- For correct disposal, the appliance must be consigned to an authorised waste disposal company to ensure that all recyclable components are reused and the remaining materials are processed properly.
- During installation ensure the room has adequate ventilation to prevent the build-up of stale air that might be harmful to the health of the operators.
- During operation and maintenance ensure that any waste pollutant products (oil, grease, etc.) are disposed of correctly.
- Keep noise levels down to reduce noise pollution.
