Supco s211 Copper Refrigeration Strainer Burnout Filter

Product Description

The SUPCO s211 is a copper refrigeration strainer designed specifically for reopened systems following compressor burnout. It filters large quantities of foreign matter, including carbon deposits and acid residue, from the refrigerant circuit before they can contaminate downstream components such as the expansion valve or new compressor. The oversized internal screen area gives this strainer greater dirt-holding capacity than a standard liquid-line drier core, making it the appropriate choice when a system has experienced a burnout event. HVAC and refrigeration technicians install this strainer as part of the system cleanup procedure on reopened circuits.

The s211 is suited for residential and light-commercial refrigeration and air conditioning systems that have been opened for compressor replacement or burnout cleanup. The 0.25 inch inlet and 0.125 inch CAP outlet sizing fits small-diameter copper tubing common in fractional and light-commercial refrigerant circuits. With an overall length of 2.75 inches and an outer diameter of 0.75 inches, it fits in tight equipment compartments without modification. It is typically installed in the suction or liquid line during the initial recommissioning phase of a burnt-out system.

Key Features

• Copper construction suited for refrigerant service in burnout cleanup applications
• Oversized screen area captures high volumes of foreign matter from contaminated systems
• 0.25 inch inlet connection fits standard small-bore copper refrigerant tubing
• 0.125 inch CAP outlet with 1 inch feed dimension for direct brazed or sweat connection
• Compact form factor at 2.75 inches overall length and 0.75 inches outer diameter

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement strainer for small-bore residential and light-commercial refrigeration systems undergoing burnout cleanup and recommissioning.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC or refrigeration technician should perform this installation. Recover all refrigerant and confirm the system is fully depressurized before cutting into any refrigerant line. Connections are made by brazing or sweating; use nitrogen purge during the brazing process to prevent internal oxidation. Replace the strainer once the system has been run through its initial cleanup cycle, as the screen will be loaded with burnout debris.
