2022 Chevrolet Express 3500 Air Conditioning Parts

Carquest Accumulators and Receiver Driers are designed to store, filter and dry the air conditioning refrigerant to provide proper performance and durability for the air conditioning system. They are manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications.

GM Genuine Parts A/C Accumulators are designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards, and are backed by General Motors. These accumulators are used in A/C systems with an orifice tube metering device. The accumulator is located between the evaporator and the compressor, and serves to capture and store excess liquid refrigerant. This prevents liquid refrigerant from entering the compressor where it can damage the compressor. GM Genuine Parts are the true OE parts installed during the production of or validated by General Motors for GM vehicles. Some GM Genuine Parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco GM Original Equipment (OE).

GM Genuine Parts A/C Condensers are designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards, and are backed by General Motors. These condensers are heat exchangers typically located in front of the engine radiator. The condenser dissipates heat absorbed by the refrigerant from the evaporator and from the compressor to the outside air. Hot refrigerant gas passes through tubes, where heat is removed, causing it to turn into a liquid. The air flowing through the fins carries the heat away. GM Genuine Parts are the true OE parts installed during the production of or validated by General Motors for GM vehicles. Some GM Genuine Parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco GM Original Equipment (OE).

GM Genuine Parts A/C Orifice Tubes are designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards, and are backed by General Motors. These tubes, which separate the high and low pressure sides of the air conditioning system, control the flow of low pressure liquid refrigerant into the evaporator. The orifice tube is essentially a calibrated restriction located at the inlet to the evaporator. This causes the necessary pressure drop to allow the liquid refrigerant to evaporate within the evaporator and absorb heat. Since the orifice tube is fixed, the system is regulated by either cycling the compressor clutch or by a variable displacement compressor.

Some GM Genuine Parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco GM Original Equipment (OE).

Carquest Orifice Tubes are designed to regulate the flow of refrigerant through the air conditioning system to provide optimal cooling to the passenger compartment. Each orifice tube is manufactured to original equipment specifications to perform its function even in the harshest climates. Each part is supplied with the necessary gaskets and o-rings for installation.

Carquest Expansion Valves are designed to regulate the flow of refrigerant through the air conditioning system to provide optimal cooling to the passenger compartment. Each expansion valve is manufactured to original equipment specifications to perform its function even in the harshest climates. Each part is supplied with the necessary gaskets and o-rings for installation.

The expansion valve/orifice tube is designed to slow the refrigerant before it enters the evaporator, maximizing the refrigerant’s cooling capability. Omega recommends replacing the expansion valve/orifice tube each time the A/C system is serviced to ensure optimal performance. Our Expansion Valves are manufactured from the highest quality materials and are engineered for long life under extreme conditions, ensuring reliable performance and durability. Each valve is individually packaged to prevent contamination, maintaining the integrity of the A/C system.

Carquest New Compressors are designed, manufactured and tested to meet or exceed strict original equipment specifications for superior quality and performance. Each new compressor is tested to provide durable life to the vehicle’s air conditioning system. All new compressor components are assembled using state of the art equipment and techniques to ensure smooth operation. Each part is equipped with a clutch and connector that matches the original equipment part and provides an exact replacement to your vehicle’s part. All compressors are supplied with the necessary gaskets and o-rings for installation.

Carquest Standard Remanufactured Compressors are manufactured to meet original equipment specifications. All components are either remanufactured to strict standards or are replaced with new components to ensure performance and durability. All compressors are 100% end of line tested.

The temperature of various systems must be reported to the engine control module (ECM) as well as other operating system controllers in the vehicle. Coolant temperature, cabin temperature, exhaust temperature and ambient temperature are just a few systems reported by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is fed 5 volts by the systems computer, within the sensor housing will be a thermistor, or dropping resistor whose resistance value will change as the temperature surrounding it changes. Changing resistance in the circuit will change the volt signal at the processor indicating the current operating value.

Positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valves are designed to recirculate combustion fumes from the crankcase into the intake so they can be burned again, resulting in lower emissions. Carquest Premium PCV valves are built to meet or exceed original equipment (O.E.) specifications and undergo extensive validation testing to ensure long-lasting performance and reliability. Carquest Premium PCV valves are part of our Carquest Vehicle Solutions, which is a full line of engine management and electronics products that help control ignition, fuel delivery and emission systems. Carquest Vehicle Solutions are OE-quality parts designed, engineered and tested by world-class manufacturers to ensure a reliable and long-lasting repair.
