Sanden AC Compressor Cylinder Head Porting Guide

7 SD R134a COMPRESSOR SERIES

Sanden AC compressor units come in many shapes and sizes for numerous applications: the 5H15, 7H13, 7H15 and 7H15HD/SHD which will each have a specific flow and pressures. Regardless of the type of the AC compressor, it performs the same function. The compressor compresses the low-pressure gaseous refrigerant and sends it to the AC condenser. This central component should be installed carefully as suggested in the owner's manual. The Sanden AC compressor cylinder head porting guide below gives the suction/discharge port dimension types, position on the cylinder head and other information for the proper mounting of the AC compressor.
