Danfoss DCL 083s Hermetic Filter Drier | 3/8 in Solder ODF | 023Z4514

Product Description: The DCL 083s (023Z4514) is a versatile “08” cubic inch drier designed for systems that require both maximum moisture protection and acid neutralization. In the UAE—where extreme ambient temperatures can accelerate the breakdown of refrigerant and oil into harmful acids—the DCL’s solid core (80% molecular sieve and 20% activated alumina) is essential for preventing compressor motor burnout. The copper-plated steel connectors are a key feature, allowing UAE technicians to perform fast, reliable brazing (soldering) while maintaining the mechanical strength of a steel body. This ensures a leak-proof seal that remains stable under the thermal stress and high vibrations typical of Middle Eastern cooling plants.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Action Protection: Combines high moisture adsorption with specialized acid removal, critical for maintaining system health in the intense Middle Eastern heat.
• Copper-Plated Connectors: Facilitates superior brazing quality, ensuring a permanent, vibration-resistant bond compared to flare fittings.
• High-Pressure Capability: Rated for 46 bar (667 psig), making it fully compatible with R410A and modern R32 systems common in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
• Effective Particle Filtration: Features a 25 μm filter to trap solid debris, protecting expansion valves and sensitive components from clogging.
• Corrosion Resistant Shell: The powder-painted steel housing is built to withstand the humid and saline coastal air of the UAE.

FAQs:

• Q: Why choose the copper-plated solder version (083s) in the UAE?
• A: Solder connections provide a more permanent and leak-free installation than flare nuts, which can loosen due to the high vibration found in large UAE condensing units.
• Q: Is this model compatible with the latest low-GWP refrigerants?
• A: Yes, it is compatible with most HFC, HCFC, and non-flammable HFO refrigerants, including R32 and R410A.
• Q: Does it have a specific flow direction?
• A: Yes, please ensure the arrow on the label matches the direction of the refrigerant flow toward the evaporator during installation.
