CONDENSER
DOOR
ACTUATOR.
The
actuator
is
on
a
bracket
mounted
between
two
bulkheads
in
the
tail
cone.
It
is
coupled
to
the
condenser
assembly
through
a
bellcrank
mounted
to
a
bracket
on
the
bulkhead
aft
of
the
condenser.
The
actuator
travel
is
controlled
by
two
limit
switches.
Both
the
up
and
down
switches
are
located
on
the
actuator.
Refer
to
Figure
14-12
for
the
switch
locations.

CONDENSER
ASSEMBLY
RIGGING
INSTRUCTIONS.
(Refer
to
Figure
14-12.)
The
condenser
assembly
is
actuated
by
an
electric
motor
through
bellcranks,
push
rods
and
limit
switches.
It
is
necessary
for
the
condenser
door
to
fit
flush
with
the
fuselage
skin,
and
with
increased
force
along
the
forward
edge.
The
following
steps
will
help
accomplish
this
requirement:
a.
Adjust
open
limit
switch
(5)
to
open
the
condenser
door
(8)
5.00
.50
inches
when
measured
from
the
leading
edge
of
the
door
to
the
fuselage
skin.
b.
Adjust
side
push
rods
so
that
a
vertically
measured
gap
of
16
of
an
inch
exists
along
the
trailing
edge
of
the
door
at
the
instant
the
forward
edge
of
the
door
becomes
flush
with
the
fuselage
skin.
c.
With
the
door
fully
closed
adjust
the
"CLOSED"
limit
switch
(6)
so
that
the
actuator
(1)
travels
an
additional
.12
of
an
inch
after
the
door
is
fully
closed,
this
is
necessary
to
preload
the
mechanism.
Refer
to
Figure
14-12,
View
A-A.
d.
Cycle
the
assembly
several
times
to
be
certain
it
operates
properly
without
binding.

The
expansion
valve
is located

drier
and
the
evaporator
inlet.
The
capillary
coil
is attached
to
the
evaporator
outlet
line.
a.
Remove
the
necessary
access
panels
and
discharge
system.
b.
Remove
the
capillary
coil
from
the
outlet
line.
(Do
not
kink
the
capillary
tube.)
c.
