Emerson Alco 049471 Drier Shell

The Emerson Alco 049471 (Model BTAS417SV) is a high-capacity brass take-apart suction line filter drier shell designed for rigorous commercial refrigeration and air conditioning applications. Engineered for maximum system protection, this 4-inch shell features a 2 1/8" ODF sweat connection and is rated for a 400 PSI max pressure. Its take-apart design allows for rapid internal cleaning and simplified core replacement following a compressor burnout or during routine maintenance. The corrosion-resistant brass construction and stainless steel bolts ensure long-term durability in demanding environments. This shell is compatible with a variety of replaceable filter drier cores and suction filter cartridges, effective down to 40 microns. Technicians rely on the BTAS series for its low pressure drop and full-flow fittings, which are essential for maintaining optimal system efficiency and preventing moisture or acid-related compressor damage.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced System Protection: The 40-micron filtration capability captures moisture, acid, and debris to safeguard the compressor.
• Durable Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant brass body with high-tensile stainless steel bolts for longevity in harsh conditions.
• Service Efficiency: The take-apart shell design facilitates quick core changes and thorough internal cleaning during system retrofits or repairs.
• Optimized Performance: Full-flow fittings minimize suction line pressure drop, ensuring the refrigeration cycle operates at peak capacity.
• Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use in large-scale commercial systems using a wide range of standard refrigerants.

Common Questions: What is the maximum working pressure for the BTAS417SV? The BTAS417SV filter drier shell is rated for a maximum working pressure of 400 PSI (28 bar), making it suitable for most standard suction line applications. Does this shell include the filter core? No, the Emerson 049471 is a shell only. Replaceable cores or cartridges must be purchased separately based on your specific filtration or desiccant requirements. Where should the BTAS shell be installed? This suction line filter drier should be installed in the suction line, ideally in a position that allows for oil return to the compressor and easy access for future core replacements.
