Default A/c clutch keeps turning on and off

hi,
i have a problem with my 1997 stratus a/c system: the compressor clutch keeps turning on and off at low speeds
the compressor is brand new and the system is cooling normally
my mechanic replaced the pressure transducer, expansion valve, dryer filter, made a throughout cleaning with nitrogen and fully charged the system with frion
the chrysler service manual talks something about the clutch disengaging at 27 second cycles
but i also heard this would be normal behavior
any thoughts?

If you're using the defroster then it's working perfectly normal.
