Compressor
DENSO Technology – Leading the World
- In 1997, DENSO launched the world’s first variable displacement compressor with a damper limiter (DL) pulley, instead of a magnetic clutch, making the compressor smaller, lighter and more reliable. In 2001, DENSO launched an even lighter variable displacement compressor with a resin-made DL pulley.
- In 2003, DENSO launched the world’s first small, light-weight electric compressor for an electric hybrid vehicle. The compressor can provide cooling during idling stop when the engine stops, saving fuel.
