- precisely selected compressor capacity for the interior volume of the W639 and W906,
- construction designed for long-term operation at variable OM642 engine speeds.
The original compressor design minimizes the risk of vibrations, noise, and leaks, contributing to the vehicle's user comfort.
Benefits of Using an Original Used Compressor
Choosing a used Mercedes air conditioning compressor from disassembly is a solution that combines technical and economic aspects. Key advantages include:
- factory fit for the air conditioning system without the need for installation modifications,
- maintenance of original compressor and clutch operating parameters,
- a cost-effective alternative to new replacements of uncertain quality.
A used OEM part helps maintain factory-like air conditioning performance, which is particularly important in professionally used vehicles such as the Mercedes Sprinter or Vito.
Condition and Application in Air Conditioning Service
The compressor is a used part from disassembly, offered for professional air conditioning system repairs. Before installation, standard servicing procedures are recommended, such as:
- flushing the air conditioning system with appropriate agents,
- replacing the receiver-drier and checking the expansion valve,
- filling the system with refrigerant according to the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines.
This approach helps minimize the risk of contaminants in the system and extends the lifespan of the installed compressor.
