   High-efficiency all-electric refrigerant compressors for air conditioning are starting to be used, especially in hybrid or all-electric vehicles. The cigarette lighter receptacle serves as a de facto standard for use of portable 12 volt equipment in or near an automobile, it is sometimes used with car charger to power devices with batteries.

   The actual voltage, matching the car battery's voltage, will be approximately 12.5 volts when dormant (less in cold conditions), approximately 14.5 volts when the engine and the alternator/generator are operating (more when cold), and may briefly drop as low as 5–6 volts during engine start due to the high temporary battery current usage.

   R-12 was also used in automotive air conditioning systems because it was the first safe non-flammable refrigerant. This refrigerant was the industry standard until the 1970s when scientists discovered that R-12 contained chlorine which depleted the ozone layer in the earth’s atmosphere. [ 39 ]

5. Polyolester - Wikipedia

   Polyolester oil (POE oil) is a type of wax-free synthetic oils used in refrigeration compressors that is compatible with the refrigerants R-134a, R-410A, and R-12. [1] POE oils are used as a lubricant in systems using the refrigerant HFC-134a when replacing CFC-12 , as these systems traditionally use mineral oil , [ 2 ] which HFC-134a does not ...

   To activate the compressor the clutch is activated. This connects the air conditioning compressor's shaft end to a pulley driven by the engine's crankshaft through a belt . Electromagnetic clutches have been used on diesel locomotives , e.g. by Hohenzollern Locomotive Works .

7. Schrader valve - Wikipedia
