Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the part number CNX630 and confirm the condenser on the vehicle uses pad inlet and pad outlet fittings. That fitting style is a key compatibility checkpoint, because the wrong connection type will not suit the existing air conditioning lines even if the vehicle is in the same BMW range.

The listed size of 562mm x 445mm x 16mm is important when comparing the replacement to the original unit. A condenser that is too large, too small, or has different mounting or line positions can create installation issues, so the physical dimensions and fitting style should be checked against the removed part.

The listed BMW coverage is specific to certain E46 and Z4 M applications only. Even within the same model family, changes in engine size, build period, or air conditioning hardware can affect fitment, so use the exact application range shown here rather than assuming all similar vehicles will suit.

Weight is listed at 3.26kg and the item is supplied each. Those details are useful for freight expectations and parts comparison, but the main fitment checks remain the condenser type, the pad fittings, the dimensions, and the exact vehicle application range.

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 CNX630 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.

OEX Air Conditioning Condenser Parallel Flow Inlet Pad Outlet Pad. Part number CNX630 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number CNX630, 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 condenser in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include BMW 3, BMW 3 1997, BMW 3 1998, BMW 3 1999. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching part number CNX630, the pad inlet and pad outlet fittings, and the exact BMW application details listed above before ordering.
