Evaporator Temperature Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation
GF83.57-P-2126MCC Evaporator Temperature Sensor, Component Description
- with CODE (I01) Air conditioning Plus
B10/6 Evaporator temperature sensor
Location
The evaporator temperature sensor is located on the right side of the air conditioner housing.
Task
The evaporator temperature sensor records the temperature of the blowby air at the evaporator and forwards it immediately to the heater/air conditioning operating unit (N23).
Function
The evaporator temperature sensor is a temperature-dependent resistor. The values sent to the heater/air conditioning operating unit enable the required actuation of the blend air flap to be calculated as well as any icing of the evaporator to be avoided through targeted regulation of the refrigerant compressor (A9).
