Sporlan 404161 Filter Drier 10 Cu in 1/2 Odf Heat Pump

Product Description

The SPORLAN 404161 is a Catch-All filter-drier designed for reverse-cycle heat pump refrigerant systems. It removes moisture, acid, and particulate contamination from the refrigerant circuit, protecting compressors and metering devices from damage caused by system contaminants. With a 10 cubic inch desiccant capacity and 1/2-inch ODF connections, this unit is sized for residential and light commercial heat pump applications. Licensed HVAC technicians install this component during system commissioning, refrigerant circuit service, or as a precautionary replacement following a compressor burnout or refrigerant recovery event.

The HPC-104-S is engineered specifically for heat pump systems that reverse refrigerant flow direction during heating and cooling cycles. Its bidirectional design handles flow in both directions without sacrificing filtration efficiency. Typical installations include split-system heat pumps and package heat pump units where liquid-line or suction-line filtration is required. The 1/2-inch ODF connection size suits common residential refrigerant line sets used in residential heat pump equipment.

Key Features

• Bidirectional filtration rated for reverse-cycle heat pump refrigerant circuits
• 10 cubic inch desiccant capacity for effective moisture and acid removal
• 1/2-inch ODF sweat connections on both ends for standard copper line set installation
• Catch-All series construction engineered for high contaminant retention
• Compact form factor fits tight equipment compartments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement filter-drier for reverse-cycle heat pump refrigerant systems using 1/2-inch ODF copper line connections. Refer to the original equipment manufacturer specifications to confirm fitment before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by an EPA Section 608 certified HVAC technician. Recover all system refrigerant and isolate the circuit before cutting into the refrigerant line. Braze connections using nitrogen purge to prevent internal oxidation scale, and replace the filter-drier any time the system is opened to atmosphere. After installation, evacuate the system to the equipment manufacturer's specified micron level before recharging with refrigerant.
