The A/C condenser is a heat exchanger that cools down the refrigerant and turns it into liquid. The condenser is made up of a lot of tubes and is usually located on the radiator.
A/C condenser principlehigh -pressure refrigerant is forced from the A/C compressor, it travels through the refrigerant and into the condenser. The A/C condenser turns the pressure and the high-temperature gas into a liquid that the A/C requires to operate properly. As the air flows through the air conditioning condenser, it cools down the refrigerant gases and transforms them into a liquid state.
The heat absorbed by the refrigerant in the evaporator is dissolved by the condenser. A condenser is very much like a radiator, and it is placed on the cooling system heat exchanger. Even though a condenser may be functioning properly, it is still susceptible to clogging due to debris.
Problems with a faulty A/C condenserA faulty A/C condenser can lead to leaking, and reduced cooling ability, and other components can be affected as well.
