Febi Pressure Switch (171278)

The air conditioning system in a vehicle cools or heats the the air blown into the passenger compartment, allowing a comfortable environmental level to be maintained and reducing the presence of humidity, dust and smells. The overall system generally consists of a heater, evaporator and a ventilation system including a blower, air ducts, and air purifier. These components are connected to each other with different tubes and hoses.

A Pressure Switch, also known as a Pressure Sensor, is a safety device which serves to protect the components in the refrigerant cycle from refrigerant pressure that is too high or too low. It sends the signal to a control unit, which uses the signal to calculate the correct variable displacement of the electronic controlled variable type compressor.
