Description
SCMI164MM – GMC DRIER FILTER 1/2” x 1/2” 250 cm³
MOLECULAR SIEVE WITH LIQUID AND HUMIDITY INDICATOR
Function:
The function of an indicator filter is to protect the system from moisture, acids, and solid contaminants; this filter should be installed on the liquid line. The presence of moisture, immediately highlighted by the accompanying indicator, can cause ice formation. Under normal charging and operating conditions of the system, the refrigerant fluid should pass through the indicator in a completely liquid state. The presence of bubbles indicates partial evaporation of the fluid along the liquid line.
Construction:
All models of indicator filters have a body and head made of UNI EN 10130 DC04 steel. The two parts are assembled by MIG welding. In this type of filter, the desiccant charge consists of a single, compact block composed of 100% 3 Å molecular sieve. This cartridge is paired with a special type of felt that allows efficient mechanical filtration combined with low resistance to fluid flow, enhancing dehydration effectiveness. The presence of the downstream indicator instantly guarantees the filter’s real effectiveness. The indicator features a moisture-sensitive element whose color changes from green to yellow in the presence of moisture in the system; yellow indicates that it is time to replace the drier filter. The production range includes versions with SAE Flare threaded connections and copper-brazed connections.
Installation:
To optimize filter performance, it is recommended to mount it with the longitudinal axis vertical and the arrow pointing down. The importance of filters in the system is such that scheduled maintenance is advised to verify their efficiency and ensure proper system operation.
