Electric Fan (DME MS43)

Specified values, pressure sensor

Data on working ranges and substitute values.

The pressure sensor receives a 5 volt power supply from the control unit for the heating/air-conditioning system. The sensor signal is evaluated with the help of tables and forwarded to the engine electronic via the K bus. In the process, the refrigerant pressure in the air-conditioning
circuit is converted to a load torque and the required fan stage.

Refrigerant pressure-fan stage conversion table

Each fan stage that is determined is transmitted via a telegram from the engine electronics. Prerequisite is a speed less than 80 km/h.
