Sporlan 401216 C-165 Filter Drier

The Sporlan 401216 C-165 Filter Drier is a critical liquid line component designed for high-capacity moisture and acid removal in HVACR systems. Utilizing a 16 cubic inch molded porous core, this sealed type filter drier provides professional-grade filtration down to 20 microns, effectively capturing solid debris like scale and solder particles that can compromise thermal expansion valves (TEV) and compressor health. This liquid line filter drier is engineered with a 5/8" SAE flare connection, facilitating a secure, leak-resistant mechanical fit for technicians working with a variety of HFC, HCFC, CFC, and HFO refrigerants, including R-410A and R-22.

Built for durability in high-pressure environments, the C-165 is rated for a maximum rated pressure of 650 PSIG. Its blend of activated alumina and molecular sieve desiccants ensures maximum adsorption of water and organic acids, preventing the formation of varnish and oil sludge. Whether used for field replacement or OEM applications in systems up to 20 tons, the Sporlan Catch-All remains the industry benchmark for maintaining system chemistry and extending the service life of HVAC refrigeration parts.

• Advanced Contaminant Control: The high-performance desiccant package provides superior acid retention and moisture capacity compared to standard beaded driers.
• Optimized Flow: Designed for minimal pressure drop, ensuring system efficiency and proper refrigerant flow across the 33 square inch filtering area.
• Universal Compatibility: Approved for use with all commercially available refrigerants and lubricants, including POE and mineral oils.
• Rugged Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant epoxy powder coating for long-term protection against environmental degradation.

• Can this be used on the suction line? No, the C-165 is specifically designed for liquid line applications. For suction line burnout cleanup, use the "HH" series or a dedicated suction line drier.
• Is this compatible with R-410A systems? Yes, it is UL listed for pressures up to 650 PSIG, making it suitable for modern high-pressure R-410A HVAC systems.
• What tools are required for installation? As a flare-connection model, you will need a standard flaring tool and properly sized wrenches to secure the 5/8" flare fittings; no brazing is required for this specific model.
