Which a/c compressor for JCI mount?


Recommended Posts

I was going to buy the compressor from JCI but the air freight to Oz is a killer and John kindly sold me just the mounts. I picked up a local Sanden 508 compressor but it doesn't mount up correctly - it works but I had to make some spacers. Could someone check their compressor and let me know which model they are using? Thanks

Thanks - I did what I should have done in the first place, I phoned John. He said he orders "Seltec - part number 42038". A 'Google' of Seltec 42038 comes up with '488-42038' but there is also information which suggest Seltec is linked to Tama and Valeo, and perhaps the basic model is TM-08 of which "2038" is a variable, i.e. 6 grooves, etc.

 

From kjones's info it seems Velco swaps the first number from a '4' to a '5' but the basic '*2038' remains.

 

SPECIAL NOTE: The Sanden 508 was a total disaster. I was able to mount it up but after all that I then couldn't fit the lead on to cylinder #1. Luckily someone bought it from me at the price I paid.

 

I now have to have another compressor shipped 10,000 miles!

 

Hope this helps.

That link I provided had the part number listed and seemed to match my compressor perfectly - If Valeo is the actual manufacturer, might be best to go to them directly... You can try this link:
