Pictures of Bus Air-Con Controllers...
-
smrt bendy buses the aircon controller is beside the eds control rite..? looks complicated with switches and everytiing above the BC head one... sometimes it shows 15deg.. ( make me suspect whether its an aircon controller anot )
While other normal buses some i can see some i cannot see their aircon controllers... the other type is less complicated it only shows the temperature and the fan speed...
anybody has photos of them? -
Some SMRT buses have but others don't. I see before Scania ELBO at 18 degrees but the bus was at like 30 degrees.
I don't think any SBST buses have them? -
Most of them spoilt, got once the temp keep flashing 25 degrees although BC reset it many times.Originally posted by stooper:Some SMRT buses have but others don't. I see before Scania ELBO at 18 degrees but the bus was at like 30 degrees.

SBST Mk 4(?) & those newer buses should have digital while others use analog controller. -
what about the 0405 CAC DM ?Originally posted by brotherchen1982:Most of them spoilt, got once the temp keep flashing 25 degrees although BC reset it many times.

I think CAC merc buses only can adjust fan speed, not exact temperature. I have not seen any A/C temperature controller before on any SBST bus.Originally posted by SBS BUSES LOVER:what about the 0405 CAC DM ? -
anybody has detailed info about it..?
i nv see any in sbsT buses b4 -
Hmm, i not very sure about this, but theres this device on some VO3x on the rear of the lower deck and is hidden behind the fan grill. Looks somewhat like a Aircon controller, but its a manual controller instead of the digital ones smrtb uses.Originally posted by patdog112:anybody has detailed info about it..?

Anyone seen this before? -
anybody has close up pic? haha...
i am espacially interested about the habits one

Yeah, looks like some kind of knob with a wire. But it's behind the grille. I think no one will touch... Looks very dusty.Originally posted by XiaoTaro:Hmm, i not very sure about this, but theres this device on some VO3x on the rear of the lower deck and is hidden behind the fan grill.

The habits one nothing special. Some buses have Konveckta controller. Some have Hispacold controller. Ths Hispacold ccontroller can be found on other O405s too.Originally posted by patdog112:anybody has close up pic? haha...
i am espacially interested about the habits one
Some buses like TIB1236M have 2 Hispacold controllers, one for front section and one for rear section. So 1236M's panel looks crowded with 2 A/C controller plus the EDS controller. -
Habits (and Volgrens)
TIB 1025 E to 1062 Y - Konvekta, with a control panel beside EDS control. Can control 3 fan speeds with a tiny button beside the LCD (not sure what purpose)
TIB 1063 U to 1092 K - Hispacold, controlled by only 2 switches rearmost the driver's side panel. Has total of 4 cooling units (split system) compared to 6 in all other 0405Gs
TIB 1093 H to 1247 G - Hispacold, same as above. However cooling units are back to 6.
Exceptions are the use of Hispacold control panel to offer better climate control that is on trial since last year, in addition to 1236 M, 1167 D and 1243 S (Sv 856) has them too.
TIB 488 J also has the Konvekta control, where the internal cooling units were replaced by a single unit on top of the bus. -
Oh! I never found any link to why some buses had 2 vents at the front offside and some buses had only 1 vent.Originally posted by BluBlur:TIB 1063 U to 1092 K - Hispacold, controlled by only 2 switches rearmost the driver's side panel.

I originally thought they were different A/C models but the A/C control was still the same brand. -
The 4 unit Habit seems to be doing its job rather well. Maybe age or a hot day will tell more.Originally posted by stooper:Oh! I never found any link to why some buses had 2 vents at the front offside and some buses had only 1 vent.

I found that TIB 1228 L is sporting a new dual climate controller, different from the trialled ones. Each controller is covered by a piece of metallic cover, revealing only the thermostat (LED), on/off switch and 2 speed fan selector.
It doesn't seem to be working well though; the bus takes longer to cool, the cooling units' fans will whirl high during movement, low during engine idle, although both controllers were set to high speed fan. The electric doors are unable to close unless the battery power is turned off. Hopefully the Automotive Dept will look into it soon.
