Triple Sensor Pressure

Triple pressure sensor is a combined switch, low pressure (to check the amount of refrigerant), medium pressure (to turn the condenser fan) and high pressure (to prevent overheating).

Sensor mounted in the receiver and when the pressure becomes approximately equal to 200 kPa or less, the condenser fan is turned off, thereby preventing excessive heating of the compressor. When the pressure reaches 3,214 kPa, the compressor is switched off.
