Trane FLR0779 Filter Element

The Trane FLR0779 Oil/Refrigerant Filter Element is a critical OEM replacement part engineered for high-performance screw compressor maintenance. This versatile filter element provides dual-stage protection within the chiller refrigerant circuit, effectively capturing contaminants as small as 4 microns to preserve system integrity. By securing the internal lubricated balance of your HVACR system, the Trane FLR0779 prevents catastrophic compressor failure caused by debris such as metal shavings and oxidation scale. Designed for compatibility with Trane Series R Water-Cooled Chillers, specifically RTHA and RTHB models using CHHA compressors, this unit ensures optimized flow rates and pressure stability. For professional service teams, this element—also identified by part numbers FLR00779 and X09130053017—is an essential stock item for preventative maintenance cycles. Utilizing original Trane components maintains the original equipment’s efficiency and operational reliability without compromising technical tolerances or fluid dynamics in industrial refrigeration applications.

• High-Efficiency Filtration: Engineered for 4-micron filtration to remove microscopic particulate matter from both oil and refrigerant streams.
• Compressor Protection: Extends the service life of screw compressors by preventing abrasive wear on critical internal surfaces.
• Exact OEM Compatibility: Verified for use in Trane RTHA, RTHB, and RTHC chiller models, ensuring a precise fit without field modifications.
• System Reliability: Minimizes unplanned downtime by maintaining clean lubricating oil and refrigerant flow, preventing thermal instability.
• Direct Replacement: Supersedes older part numbers including FLR779 and FLR-0779, simplifying inventory management for contractors.

• What specific Trane models use the FLR0779 filter? This oil/refrigerant filter is primarily utilized in Trane Series R water-cooled screw chillers, including the RTHA and RTHB series equipped with CHHA model compressors.
• Does this filter include the required gasket for installation? The FLR0779 typically requires gasket RNG01410 for a leak-proof seal; please verify if the gasket is included or needs to be ordered separately prior to opening the system.
• How often should a Trane screw chiller oil filter be replaced? For optimal HVAC maintenance, it is recommended to replace this element during annual inspections or whenever high pressure-drop differential is detected across the filter housing.
