The Rotrix ACT-1222 test bench is a professional diagnostic tool specifically designed for the comprehensive inspection of the technical condition of compressors found in vehicle air conditioning systems. This equipment offers an ideal solution for testing piston, axial piston, rotary, and scroll compressors, whether they use R134a or the newer R1234yf refrigerants.
The Rotrix ACT-1222 test bench provides a reliable and efficient solution for workshops, service centers, and parts distributors for the quick and accurate inspection of compressors, whether for troubleshooting, post-maintenance run-in, or pre-sale quality assurance of new parts.
The test bench is extremely versatile and capable of diagnosing the widest range of 12V/24V belt-driven vehicle climate compressors.
The unit is capable of checking the performance and operation of compressors in the following areas:
Compressor Types: Diagnoses all types of belt-driven vehicle air conditioning compressors (piston, axial piston, rotary, scroll).
Operating modes: Offers two types of diagnostic modes:
Automatic Mode: Running a complete, pre-defined test program.
Manual Mode: Allows the user to freely set test parameters (e.g., rotational speed, pressure) for specific checks.
Electromagnetic Clutch and Control Valve Testing: Capable of checking electromagnetic clutches and control valves for short circuits, open circuits, and diode presence, both when integrated with the compressor and independently.
Post-Maintenance Run Test: Allows testing of refurbished or serviced compressors before installation.
Pre-Sale Inspection: Verification of the quality of new, aftermarket (analog) compressors before sale.
The test bench flexibly adapts to current and previous refrigerant standards:
The control interface is designed for efficiency and ease of use:
Touchscreen: Intuitive and user-friendly menu system, which is displayed on a 10.4 inch touchscreen for controlling the bench's functions and diagnostic procedures.
Data Handling: Saving and printing diagnostic results is optionally available.
Report generation: Generation and printing of test reports is possible (any external printer can be connected).
Several features guarantee the long-term reliability and safe operation of the unit:
Protection Systems: Features multiple protection functions against malfunctions caused by incorrect handling.
Firmware Update: Automatic firmware update capability provided.
Connectivity: Modern communication interfaces for easy integration.
The detailed technical data of the Rotrix ACT-1222 test bench ensures precise and reliable operation even in the most demanding workshop environments.
