An exchangeable air-conditioning unit (1) is described for attachment to mobile equipment. The air-conditioning unit includes a compressor (5) operable to compress a refrigerant and a hydraulic motor (17) operable to drive the compressor. Hydraulic fittings (11) are provided in fluid communication with the hydraulic motor for transporting hydraulic fluid. The hydraulic fittings (11) are adapted to be releasably connected to a hydraulic system of the mobile equipment. Refrigerant fittings (7) are provided in fluid communication with the compressor for transporting refrigerant. The refrigerant fittings (7) are adapted to be releasably connected to a refrigeration circuit of the mobile equipment. An enclosure (3) houses the compressor and hydraulic motor and has at least one releasable connector (21) for releasably connecting the enclosure to the mobile equipment. The exchangeable unit may be pre-charged with gas in and stored in readiness for attachment to the mobile equipment.
