Linear pressure sensor
The linear pressure sensor is installed directly on the receiver drier. The pressure sensor has an integrated measurement amplifier. This provides an output voltage which is linear to the pressure (0-35 bar). The signal is used to control the following functions:
- The engine cooling fan (FC).
- Compressor disengagement at high pressure (> 30 bar).
- Compressor disengagement if the system is completely empty (< 1.76 bar).
The pressure sensor cannot be replaced without draining the system first.
