Liquid line and suction line filter-driers are often referred to as System Protectors because they remove harmful elements from the circulating refrigerant before serious damage results.
Keeping the system clean and free of foreign contaminants that can restrict the operation of valves, block capillary tubes or damage compressors is the best way to assure trouble-free operation. These contaminants can be solids, such as metal filings, flux, dust and dirt. Other equally menacing contaminants are solubles, such as acid, water, resins and wax.
No matter how many precautions are taken during assembly and installation or servicing of a system, contaminants can find a way into the system. Filter-driers are designed to protect a system during operation. It is the function of this all-important unit to remove those residual elements that can attack and eventually destroy the system components.
The Parker Sahara Series Liquid Line Filter Dryer is the perfect replacement dryer for air conditioning applications (also appropriate for some refrigeration applications--consult Parker). Its ideal moisture removal and contaminant filtration properties make it the perfect service replacement for +40F to 55F suction line temperature R-22 air conditioning systems.
Membrane Compressed Air Dryer for Critical Applications
The Parker Compressed Air Point of Use Dryer are capable of delivering clean, dry compressed air with a dew point of -40°C at atmospheric pressure. No electrical supply is required to use the Parker Membrane Air Dryer. Each membrane air dryer is equipped with a high efficiency coalescing prefilter to remove oil, water, and particulate contamination.
