Compressor system – genuine HOWO complete A/C compressor and condenser kit for MAX 4X2
This compressor system includes the condenser, all pipeline assemblies, clamps, brackets, bolts, and refrigerant. Everything needed to rebuild the air conditioning system is in one comprehensive kit.
The high-pressure and low-pressure lines in this compressor system are made from corrosion-resistant aluminium with protective coatings, ensuring long life even in harsh road conditions.
The kit contains the exact quantity of R-134a refrigerant required for the MAX 4X2 compressor system, eliminating guesswork and ensuring optimal cooling performance from the first start.
All pipelines and mounting brackets are pre-formed to the exact geometry of the HOWO MAX 4X2 chassis, guaranteeing that The part installs without modification and without clearance issues.
The part on the HOWO MAX 4X2 uses a belt-driven compressor to compress refrigerant gas, which then travels through the high-pressure pipeline to the condenser. The condenser releases heat, turning the gas into liquid. The liquid refrigerant passes through the expansion valve and enters the evaporator as a cold mist, absorbing heat from the cabin air. The low-pressure pipeline returns the vapour to the compressor, completing the cycle.
The part relies on precise sealing and proper refrigerant charge to function efficiently. The condenser, pipelines, and clamps are designed to withstand engine vibrations and road shocks. A well-maintained compressor system ensures a comfortable cab environment, especially in hot climates. Regular inspection of The part components is recommended to prevent leaks and maintain performance.
Before installing The part, ensure the A/C system is depressurised and the battery is disconnected. Remove the old condenser, pipelines, and brackets. Install the new condenser using the M6 and M8 flange bolts (torque 10 Nm and 20 Nm respectively). Mount the high-pressure and low-pressure pipelines using the fixing clamps and pipeline brackets, securing them with the provided bolts.
Connect the cold steam pipe to the evaporator and secure with the evaporator pipe clamp. Ensure all O-ring seals are lubricated with PAG oil before connection. Torque all line fittings to 25 Nm. Add the specified amount of R-134a refrigerant (70 units) using an A/C charging station. Start the engine and test The part for cooling performance and leaks. The part is now ready for service.
If The part does not cool, check the refrigerant level first. Low refrigerant indicates a leak in the system; inspect all connections and the condenser for damage. A noisy compressor may indicate low oil or a failing clutch; check the oil level in The part. If the condenser is blocked by debris, cleaning may restore efficiency.
A broken fixing clamp can cause pipeline vibration and eventual rupture; replace any damaged clamps. If the evaporator inlet and outlet pipe clamp is loose, the pipes may rub against the firewall, causing leaks. Always use genuine HOWO compressor system components for repairs to ensure proper fit and reliability.
Inspect The part annually or every 40,000 km. Check the condenser for debris and clean it with compressed air. Inspect the pipelines for signs of rubbing or corrosion. Ensure all clamps and brackets are secure – retighten bolts if necessary. Check the refrigerant pressure using a manifold gauge; recharge if low.
Replace the receiver-dryer (if applicable) every two years. The A/C refrigerant should be recovered and recharged using proper equipment. Regular maintenance of The part extends its life and maintains efficient cabin cooling. Always use the correct type and quantity of PAG oil when servicing The part.
This compressor system kit is specifically designed for the HOWO MAX 4X2 tractor with MC11 and MC13 engines. It fits all production years from 2018 onward and is compatible with both standard and high-roof cab variants. The high-pressure and low-pressure pipeline assemblies are tailored for the MAX MC11 engine layout.
The condenser size matches the front end opening of the MAX 4X2. This compressor system kit is also suitable for SITRAK C7H and HOWO T7H models with the same cooling system architecture. It is not compatible with older WD615 or A7 models, which use different pipe routing and condenser dimensions. Always verify your vehicle’s engine type and chassis configuration before ordering.
Aftermarket compressor system components often have poorer heat exchange efficiency, leading to weak cooling. Generic pipelines may not have the correct routing, causing kinks or rubbing that leads to leaks. Non-genuine clamps and brackets may not fit properly, allowing pipes to vibrate and fail prematurely. Counterfeit refrigerant may contain impurities that damage the compressor.
Genuine HOWO compressor system components are manufactured to SINOTRUK’s exacting standards, ensuring optimal cooling performance and durability. The small additional cost of a genuine compressor system kit is well worth the comfort and reliability it provides, especially in hot climates where a working A/C is essential.
