Vehicle AC Compressor Problems vs. Low AC Refrigerant

Poor AC performance can often be traced back to either compressor failure or low AC refrigerant. Unfortunately, these vehicle components work hand-in-hand, making it hard to distinguish which is causing your AC troubles. So how can you tell if it is a compressor problem? There are a few subtle symptoms to look out for:

Freon Levels: If your AC system has optimal freon (refrigerant) levels (not too much or too little), but your air conditioner still does not work properly, this is often the sign of AC compressor failure.

Inconsistent AC Performance: Refrigerant leaks will only continue to get worse as the problem continues. On the other hand, a failing AC compressor might work well one day and poorly the next. While it is not applicable for all AC troubles, this symptom is an easy way to distinguish between low refrigerant and compressor problems.

Sudden AC Performance Drops: Refrigerant tends to leak gradually over time, while AC compressors can stop working on a dime. While even small refrigerant leaks can cause large AC problems, sudden drops tend to indicate compressor failure.

If you are still unsure of the source of your AC problems, it might be time to bring your vehicle to a mechanic for professional insight. .

Types of AC compressors for a car

There are various kinds of compressors in modern car air conditioning systems that are differing, for example, in power, performance, noise, etc. In general, we will consider some models of structures using the example of the DENSO compressor range.

• The most popular type of compressor is a swashplate. The drum of the unit, containing several pistons (from five to seven), is driven by the engine of the car. The pistons circulate the refrigerant sliding relative to the stationary wobble plate. The volume of the pumped-over coolant can be changed due to the variable angle of inclination of the disc. DENSO compressors of this type (SE, SB, SL) are equipped with many large vehicles for which high performance of the AC system is important.
• Compressors with wobble plate, DENSO CA. In this design, on the other hand, the swashplate is movable, and the pistons and drum do not rotate. The distribution system in these compressors is a little more complicated, and today they are gradually losing ground.
• Scroll compressors are completely different types of AC compressors for a car. Their mechanism consists of two spirals: movable and fixed. Compressors of the DENSO SC type are renowned for their extremely low noise levels. Scroll compressors take up very little power from the engine and are therefore excellent for air conditioning systems in cars with small light engines. Due to its low energy consumption, DENSO ES compressors with an electric drive are also equipped with a scroll mechanism. The advantage of these compressors is the ability to operate on the vehicle's battery, that is, with the engine off, which is important for hybrid vehicles.
• Finally, rotary vane compressors, DENSO TV. These compressors are designed for low power systems. Their principle of operation is familiar to many motorists from booster pumps it is an eccentric in a chamber of variable volume, equipped with movable blades. The simplicity of the design of these compressors ensures their reliability and ease of maintenance.
