Purpose
The condenser cools the high-temperature, highly pressurized refrigerant.
Function
The condenser cools the high-temperature, highly pressurized gaseous refrigerant compressed by the A/C compressor using the outside air, and changes it to liquid refrigerant.
Construction
The condenser is installed to the front of the radiator.
The condenser consists of the tube which passes refrigerant, and the heat radiation fin.

A sub-cooling condenser has been adopted.

The sub-cooling condenser is integrated with the multi-flow condenser and the receiver driver.
The sub-cooling condenser separates the refrigerant, cooled once by the condenser, into vapor and liquid using the receiver/drier, and by returning it to the sub-cooling part of the condenser again to cool.
As a result, liquefaction of the refrigerant is promoted and cooling performance is improved.
Operation
The high-temperature, highly pressurized gaseous refrigerant sent from the A/C compressor passes through the tube in the condenser.
When the air blown from the outside is exposed to the heat radiation fin, the heat of the refrigerant is captured by heat exchange, and the refrigerant changes from a gas to a liquid.
The liquid refrigerant is sent to the expansion valve via the receiver/drier.

Intake Air Temperature (Iat) Sensor
IAT Sensor No.1
Purpose/Function
Detects the IAT before it passes through the throttle body as basic information
for mainly determining the fuel injection amount.
Detects the IAT before it passes through the throttle body and inputs it
to the PCM as an IAT signal.
