Application and Compatibility
The filter drier is compatible with a wide range of refrigerants, including R22, R23, R32, R1234yf, R1234ze, R134a, R404A, R407A, R407C, R407F, R410A, R444B, R448A, R449A, R450A, R452A, R507, and R513A. For other refrigerants, please contact Danfoss. The operating media temperature range is -40 °C to 70 °C (-40 °F to 160 °F).
Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Brazing: Use a minimum of 5% silver (Ag) content for brazing.
- Valve Protection: You must remove the Schrader valve before brazing to prevent damage.
- Temperature Control: Ensure the filter body temperature does not exceed 70 °C (160 °F) during the process.
- Surface Protection: If any paint is burnt off during brazing, clean the area and apply anti-corrosion paint or heat shrink to prevent rust.
- Access Port: After installation, ensure the access port is tightened to 0.5 Nm (5 in.-lbs) and the valve core to 1.5 Nm (13 in.-lbs).
- System Marking: After charging the system, clearly mark it with the type of refrigerant and oil used.
Converting from capillary tube
If converting from a 2.8 mm capillary tube outlet to a 1/4 inch connection, use the designated cutting line indicated on the filter drier outlet tube.
