Sporlan 400488 C-083-HH Filter Drier
The Sporlan 400488 C-083-HH is a high-performance liquid line filter drier designed specifically for system clean-up and wax removal in low-temperature refrigeration applications. Featuring an 8 cubic inch HH core, this unit utilizes a unique blend of activated charcoal, molecular sieve, and activated alumina to aggressively adsorb system contaminants such as moisture, acid, sludge, and oil decomposition products. The 3/8 SAE flare connections ensure a secure, leak-proof fit for technicians performing field service or compressor burnout remediation. Engineered for versatility, the Sporlan Catch-All is compatible with a wide range of refrigerants including R-22, R-134a, R-404A, and R-410A, and is rated for a maximum pressure of 650 psig. The molded porous core provides 20-micron filtration with minimal pressure drop, effectively protecting the thermostatic expansion valve (TEV) and compressor from abrasive solids and varnish. For any veteran contractor, the C-083-HH is the industry standard for ensuring long-term system reliability after a severe contamination event.
Key Benefits- Advanced HH Core: Incorporates activated charcoal to remove wax, varnish, and organic acids that standard driers often miss.
- Burnout Cleanup: Specifically formulated for post-burnout recovery, neutralising hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids.
- Precision Filtration: The molded porous core traps solid debris down to 20 microns to protect sensitive downstream components.
- Rugged Construction: UL-listed steel shell with a 650 psig rating, suitable for high-pressure HFC and HFO refrigerants.
- Universal Compatibility: Works seamlessly with mineral, alkylbenzene, and POE lubricants.
When should I choose the HH core over a standard core?
Use the HH core when you are dealing with a compressor burnout or if you suspect wax buildup in a low-temperature system. The activated charcoal is essential for cleaning up oil breakdown products.
Can I leave the C-083-HH in the system permanently?
While designed for cleanup, many technicians leave them in place; however, if the pressure drop exceeds 3 PSI on the liquid line during your follow-up, the drier should be replaced to prevent flashing.
Is this drier compatible with R-410A systems?
Yes, the 650 psig rating and desiccant blend are fully compatible with R-410A and high-pressure refrigeration cycles.
