OEX Air Conditioning Compressor 12V Direct Mount MHI QS90 Style CXM0012

This OEX air conditioning compressor is a 12V unit with direct mount construction, a pad fitting type, and a 95mm clutch diameter. It is listed as MHI QS90 style and carries part number CXM0012, so matching the part number and compressor style is the most reliable starting point when checking suitability.

The compressor is specified with a 6 groove pulley section and a 120ml oil capacity, and the note supplied is oil type PAG46. Those details matter when comparing against the vehicle’s existing compressor and the system requirements, especially where the original unit uses the same mounting and drive arrangement.

Fitment guidance supplied with the product points to Mitsubishi ASX XB, Lancer CJ, and Outlander ZG-ZK from 2007 onwards. That is a useful reference, but the exact application still needs to be confirmed against the vehicle build details and the compressor currently fitted to the car before purchase.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number CXM0012, the 12V rating, and the direct mount pad fitting against the compressor removed from the vehicle. Those three checks help reduce the risk of ordering a unit that looks similar but differs in mounting or drive arrangement.

The pulley section is listed as 6 groove and the clutch diameter is 95mm, so the belt drive and clutch dimensions should be checked against the existing compressor and accessory drive setup. If either measurement differs from what is already installed, the part may not be suitable even if the vehicle is one of the listed Mitsubishi models.

The supplied oil note is PAG46, with an oil capacity of 120ml. When replacing an air conditioning compressor, it is important to match the refrigerant system requirements and any service procedures used by the technician fitting the part. If the vehicle has had prior compressor failure, the system condition should be assessed before installation.

The application note points to Mitsubishi ASX XB, Lancer CJ, and Outlander ZG-ZK from 2007 onwards, but vehicle model alone is not enough for a final match. Build date, engine variant, existing compressor style, and connector or mounting differences can affect whether a unit is suitable, so the original compressor details should be confirmed first.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number CXM0012 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

For part number CXM0012, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a air conditioning compressor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment using part number CXM0012, the 12V direct mount pad configuration, and the listed Mitsubishi application details before ordering. Vehicle model alone is not sufficient for confirmation.
