How often should a car air conditioner cycle on and off to be considered normal?
1 Answers
It is normal for a car air conditioner to cycle on and off approximately every 30 seconds. The car air conditioning system, commonly referred to as car AC, is a unit designed to regulate air temperature in a confined space (usually enclosed) to meet human comfort or specific process requirements. Additional relevant information is as follows: 1. Excessive cycling of the air conditioner can cause most of the refrigerant oil in the compressor to flow back into the system pipelines, which may lead to insufficient oil circulation in the compressor. 2. The car air conditioning compressor plays a role in compressing and driving the refrigerant within the AC refrigeration circuit. 3. In the car air conditioner's energy-saving mode, when the self-checked temperature reaches the set target, the compressor will shut down to stop working, achieving energy-saving effects. When the temperature rises and deviates from the set temperature, the system restarts to bring the temperature back on track.
