• Core size in inches: 20.81 (height) x 17.81 (length) x 0.63 (thickness)
• Inlet diameter: 7/16 inch; outlet diameter: 5/16 inch

Detailed Product Description and Specifications

The TYC 3261 A/C condenser features a parallel flow condenser (PFC) design, which improves refrigerant flow and heat dissipation compared to traditional tube-and-fin condensers. This design helps maintain optimal air conditioning performance in Jaguar S-Type, XF, XFR, XK, XKR, and XKR-S vehicles. The condenser core measures approximately 20.81 inches in height, 17.81 inches in length, and 0.63 inches in thickness, providing a robust surface area for effective cooling.

Included with the condenser is a receiver/drier component, which plays a critical role in filtering contaminants and absorbing moisture from the refrigerant, thereby protecting the A/C system from corrosion and damage. The inlet and outlet sizes are 7/16 inch and 5/16 inch in diameter, respectively, ensuring compatibility with the factory refrigerant lines on the specified Jaguar models.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

• Jaguar S-Type A/C system repairs and replacements
• Jaguar XF and XFR air conditioning condenser upgrades
• Replacement condenser for Jaguar XK, XKR, and XKR-S models
• Resolving A/C cooling inefficiencies and refrigerant leaks
• Addressing moisture contamination and system corrosion issues

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the TYC 3261 A/C condenser, ensure the system is fully evacuated and recharged by a certified technician to maintain proper refrigerant levels. Verify that the inlet and outlet connections match the vehicle’s refrigerant lines to avoid leaks. It is recommended to replace the receiver/drier along with the condenser to prevent moisture-related damage. Inspect all seals and O-rings during installation and replace if necessary to ensure a secure, leak-free fit.
