Denso A/C Compressor Belt Pulley - Version 1






Denso A/C Compressor Belt Pulley - Version 1

If the drive plate overload protection activates, check the A/C compressor for ease of movement before replacing the belt pulley. If the A/C compressor creates friction, replace it completely.

The A/C compressor can be removed from the sub-assembly bracket and installed again without opening the refrigerant lines.

Belt pulley is made of plastic and is sensitive to impact, therefore handle it with especial care

If the overload protection of the drive plate - C - activates, rotate the belt pulley - E - using the outer part of the drive plate - C - so that the A/C compressor shaft - B - and the hexagon head on the drive plate - D - (inner part of the drive plate - C -) do not rotate.






The belt pulley including the drive plate and sealing cap is available as a replacement part - the parts are held together by a screw which is not needed and can be disposed of. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

When the bolt was manufactured, a predetermined amount of a specific grease was applied to the threads of the drive plate; this amount is sufficient for bolting the drive plate to the A/C compressor shaft one time - a drive plate, which has been removed, therefore cannot be reused.

Removal






- Removing ribbed belt.

- Remove the sealing cap - A -.

- Counter-hold the input shaft - B - of the A/C compressor with a commercially available 7 mm hex wrench.

- Turn the drive plate - C - with the belt pulley - E - in the - direction of the arrow -.

- Remove the drive plate.

The torque for driving the A/C compressor is transferred to the A/C compressor shaft via the threaded connection of the drive plate.

If the drive plate has become so tightly attached to the A/C compressor shaft during A/C compressor operation that it cannot be loosened (the 7 mm hex wrench cannot transmit the necessary torque), the A/C compressor must be replaced.

- Remove the circlip - A -.






- Remove the belt pulley - B -.

Installation

Installation is done is reverse order, observe the following:

Tightening specification, refer to => [ Denso A/C Compressor Belt Pulley - Version 1 Overview ] Denso A/C Compressor Belt Pulley - Version 1 Overview.

- Clean the A/C compressor input shaft before sliding on the belt pulley.

- Attach the belt pulley to the A/C compressor input shaft.

(fitting must be possible without much force).

- Install the circlip - A - on the right side.

The beveled insertion edge - C - faces away from the A/C compressor - install the flat side facing the A/C compressor.

- Clean the A/C compressor input shaft threads prior to mounting the drive plate.

The thread of the new drive plate has already been greased with a specific amount of a grease by the manufacturer.

- Insert the rubber element - D - in the belt pulley - B - as shown in the figure and coat lightly with tire mounting paste or a soap solution (as a lubricant), for example.






- Insert the drive plate - C - into the rubber element until it is in contact with the input shaft - B - of the A/C compressor.

- Press the rubber element of the drive plate into the belt pulley - E - until the drive plate is in contact with the threads of the A/C compressor input shaft.

- Screw the drive plate with the belt pulley onto the A/C compressor input shaft by rotating against the - direction of the arrow - while counter-holding with a hex wrench.

- Install the ribbed belt.
