Product details
Danfoss DCL 164 Hermetic Filter Drier | 16 cu.in. | 1/2 in Flare |
Product Description:
The Danfoss DCL (023Z5011) is the professional choice for protecting larger commercial refrigeration units across the UAE. Equipped with a 16 cubic inch core made of 80% Molecular Sieve and 20% Activated Alumina, it provides a dual-action defense against the two biggest enemies of a cooling system: moisture and acid. This model is especially effective in Dubai’s high-temperature environments where chemical reactions can accelerate acid formation. Its 1/2 in flare connections ensure high flow rates with minimal pressure drop. The robust steel housing is finished with a corrosion-resistant powder coating, ensuring durability against the saline air in UAE coastal areas, making it a reliable safeguard for long-term HVAC/R performance.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Dual-Action Core: Effectively traps moisture and neutralizes acids to prevent compressor burnout in UAE industrial units.
- High Flow Capacity: 1/2 inch flare fittings allow for efficient refrigerant movement in medium-to-large UAE systems.
- Corrosion Protection: Advanced powder-painted finish designed to withstand the harsh, humid ambient conditions of the UAE.
- High-Pressure Security: Rated for 46 bar, making it fully compatible with R410A and R32 systems found across the UAE.
- Reliable Filtration: Internal felt filter captures particles down to 25 µm, protecting expansion valves from clogging in Dubai plants.
