Sporlan 401080 C-163-HH Filter Drier
The Sporlan 401080 C-163-HH Filter Drier is an industry-standard liquid line filter drier engineered for critical refrigeration and air conditioning cleanup applications. Featuring a 16-cubic-inch molded porous core, this HH style filter drier utilizes a specialized blend of desiccants and activated charcoal to provide maximum containment of moisture, acid, sludge, and carbon. The 3/8" SAE flare connections ensure a secure, leak-proof fit in the liquid line, making it a primary choice for compressor burnout cleanup and system recovery. Designed for high-pressure performance, this unit maintains a 650 PSIG rated pressure, making it fully compatible with R-410A, HFC, HCFC, and HFO refrigerants. Its unique "HH" core technology is specifically formulated to remove wax from low-temperature systems, protecting the TEV and compressor from debris and ensuring optimal heat transfer efficiency across residential and commercial HVACR platforms.
Key Benefits- Maximum Acid & Moisture Removal: The Sporlan Catch-All core captures hydrofluoric and organic acids that lead to premature compressor failure.
- Burnout Recovery Specialist: Integrated activated charcoal effectively mitigates odors and contaminants following a motor burnout.
- Low Temperature Wax Control: Specialized "HH" core prevents wax buildup in low-temp refrigeration systems, maintaining clear liquid flow.
- Robust Construction: UL-listed design with a 650 PSI rating ensures reliability in high-capacity systems from 3/4 to 5 tons.
- Universal Connectivity: 3/8" SAE flare fittings provide straightforward installation without the need for brazing in sensitive environments.
Is the Sporlan C-163-HH compatible with newer A2L refrigerants?
Yes, the C-163-HH is designed for a wide range of refrigerants including HFC, HCFC, HFO, and modern blends, provided the system pressure does not exceed 650 PSIG.
What is the difference between an 'HH' core and a standard Sporlan core?
The 'HH' designation indicates the inclusion of activated charcoal. While standard cores focus on moisture and acid, the HH core is specifically required for burnout cleanup and removing wax from refrigeration systems.
Can this filter drier be used on the suction line?
The Sporlan 401080 is a sealed liquid line model. For suction line filtration, a specific suction line drier should be selected to manage pressure drop and oil return more effectively.
