Danfoss 023Z5015 Filter Drier

The Danfoss 023Z5015 DCL 163S is a high-performance liquid line filter drier designed specifically for refrigeration and air conditioning systems requiring 3/8" ODF solder connections. Engineered with a core composition of 80% molecular sieve and 20% activated alumina, this unit excels in moisture absorption while providing essential acid neutralization, making it ideal for systems utilizing HFC and HCFC refrigerants and POE or PAG oils. The solid core design ensures high dirt retention with minimal pressure drop, protecting the thermal expansion valve from contaminants and preventing ice formation in the orifice. Its powder-coated finish provides superior corrosion resistance, essential for harsh mechanical room environments. For technicians performing retrofits or new installations, the Danfoss DCL 163S ensures long-term system dehydration and prevents the formation of corrosive acids that lead to compressor motor burnout.

Key Benefits for Technicians

• High Dehydration Capacity: Features an 80/20 solid core optimized for high moisture removal in systems with high liquid temperatures.
• Superior Filtration: Effectively captures particles larger than 25 microns to prevent clogging in critical metering devices.
• Solder Connection: Solid copper 3/8" ODF connectors ensure reliable, leak-free brazed joints.
• Broad Compatibility: Rated for use with R134a, R404A, R407C, R410A, and R507A refrigerants.
• Corrosion Protection: Durable epoxy coating exceeds 500-hour salt spray testing requirements.

Common Questions for 023Z5015

What is the maximum working pressure for this drier?
The Danfoss 023Z5015 is rated for a Maximum Working Pressure (MWP) of 667 psig (46 bar), making it compatible with high-pressure R410A systems.

Can this filter drier be installed in either direction?
No, this is a unidirectional liquid line drier. Flow must follow the arrow indicated on the label to ensure optimal filtration and core integrity.

Is this model suitable for suction line applications?
This is a dedicated liquid line drier. For suction line cleanup after a burnout, a high-acid capacity suction filter drier should be used instead.
