Danfoss 023Z5008 Filter Drier
The Danfoss 023Z5008 is a high-performance liquid line filter drier designed for HVACR systems requiring reliable moisture and acid removal. Part of the Danfoss DML series, this unit features a 100% molecular sieve core, making it exceptionally effective for systems utilizing HFC refrigerants and POE or PAG oils. The 3/8-inch flare connection ensures a secure, leak-proof fit for standard service configurations. With a high pressure rating suitable for R410A and other high-pressure refrigerants, the 023Z5008 provides critical protection for the thermal expansion valve (TXV) and compressor by filtering out particulate matter down to 25 microns. Its solid core construction prevents attrition, ensuring that desiccant particles do not migrate through the system. For technicians performing system dehydration or routine maintenance, this drier offers the high drying capacity necessary to maintain optimal system chemistry and prevent copper plating or compressor failure.
Key Benefits for Contractors- Optimal Adsorption: 100% molecular sieve core provides maximum moisture removal and prevents acid formation in HFC refrigerant systems.
- High Pressure Compatibility: Rated for a maximum working pressure (MWP) of 667 psig, making it a standard choice for R410A applications.
- Durable Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant powder-painted finish and a burst pressure rating that meets rigorous industry standards.
- System Protection: Highly effective 25-micron filtration prevents debris from clogging the expansion device or damaging compressor valves.
- Versatile Application: compatible with a wide range of refrigerants including R134a, R404A, R407C, and R507.
Can the Danfoss 023Z5008 be used with R22 systems?
While designed for HFCs, the 100% molecular sieve is compatible with HCFCs. However, for older systems with mineral oil, a DCL series (solid core with activated alumina) may be preferred for acid neutralization.
Is this filter drier bi-directional?
No, the 023Z5008 is a liquid line filter drier designed for one-way flow. Always ensure the arrow on the label points toward the expansion device during installation.
What is the best practice for installing the flare connections?
Use a backup wrench to avoid twisting the copper spun housing and apply a small amount of refrigerant oil to the flare face to ensure a gas-tight seal without over-torquing.
