Refrigeration Practicals: Changing the Drier
Changing the drier is one of the first sealed-system jobs in an RAC course. With the refrigerant recovered, students cut the old drier out of a Domestic Refrigerator or a trainer. The capillary is cut with a Capillary Tube Cutter so its bore is not crushed. The new drier goes in with its flow arrow toward the capillary and is brazed with the phosphor-copper Brazing Rod.
The circuit is then evacuated with the Small Vacuum Pumps to draw out air and moisture before it is recharged. Teachers can cut open a used drier to show the desiccant and the strainer screens inside.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the filter drier fitted?
In the liquid line, between the condenser outlet and the capillary tube. The arrow on the shell shows the flow direction and must point toward the capillary. Fitted backwards, its screens and desiccant do not work as intended.
When should the drier be replaced?
Fit a new drier every time the sealed system is opened, for example to change a compressor or repair a leak. Once the old one has been open to air it has taken up moisture and cannot be trusted to dry the circuit again.
How long can it stay uncapped before fitting?
Keep the end caps on until the pipes are ready, then fit and braze it straight away. The desiccant starts taking up moisture from the room air the moment the caps come off.
How do I braze it without damaging it?
Point the flame at the joint and away from the drier body, and keep the heating time short. A wet cloth wrapped round the shell helps keep the desiccant cool while the joint is made.
How does it differ from the commercial drier?
This domestic drier is a small copper unit for refrigerators and small systems. The commercial Drier has 3/8 inch connections and a 650 psi working pressure, for larger refrigeration and air conditioning plant.
