Danfoss DCL 083s Hermetic Filter Drier | 3/8 in Solder ODF | 023Z451491

Product Description: The DCL 083s (023Z451491) is engineered to provide maximum protection in the demanding Middle Eastern climate. In the UAE—where high condensing temperatures can lead to the formation of harmful acids and moisture—the DCL’s hybrid core (80% molecular sieve and 20% activated alumina) is essential. It not only keeps the refrigerant bone-dry but also neutralizes acids that could otherwise cause compressor motor burnout. The copper-plated steel connectors allow UAE technicians to achieve fast, high-quality brazing while benefiting from the mechanical strength of the steel shell, ensuring a leak-proof seal even under the vibration and thermal stress common in Dubai’s rooftop installations.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Action Chemical Protection: Effectively adsorbs moisture and neutralizes acids, providing critical safeguards for systems operating in intense heat.
• Superior Brazing Quality: The copper-plated ODF connections facilitate a stronger, more reliable bond during soldering compared to standard steel ends.
• High Working Pressure: PED approved for up to 46 bar (667 psig), making it fully compatible with R410A and R32 high-pressure refrigerants.
• Effective Particle Filtration: Features a 25 $\mu$m filter to trap solid debris, protecting expansion valves and sensitive system orifices from clogging.
• Industrial Durability: The powder-painted steel shell provides excellent corrosion resistance against the humid and saline coastal air of the Emirates.

FAQs:

• Q: What makes the “91” suffix version different?
• A: In the Danfoss catalog, the “91” suffix typically indicates a specific industrial pack or a high-volume distribution code, but the technical specifications remain identical to the standard 023Z4514.
• Q: Can I use this for a system with Mineral Oil?
• A: Yes, while optimized for POE/PAG oils, the DCL series is compatible with all common refrigerant and oil types used in the UAE.
• Q: Does it have a specific installation orientation?
• A: Yes, ensure the arrow on the label points in the direction of the refrigerant flow (towards the expansion device).
