Re: Liquid line drier sizing
As an addition to the post above I see that the Actrol catalogue lists their drier by Liquid flow capacity:kw. Does anyone know if this correlates to system capacity. If not what is liquid flow capacity.
Some examples out of their catalogue:
BFK084S 1/2" Solder Liquid flow cap (kw) 134a=23.6, R22=23.6, R404a/R507=23.2
BFK165 5/8" male flare Liquid flow cap (kw) 134a=30.6, R22=30.6, R404a/R507=29.9
BFK305 5/8" male flare Liquid flow cap (kw) 134a=36, R22=36, R404a/R507=35.4
BFK307S 7/8" Solder Liquid flow cap (kw) 134a=58.7, R22=58.7, R404a/R507=57.7

Re: Liquid line drier sizing
Yes , the liquid capacity relates your system capacity with respect to 1 psig pressure drop at rated condition . you can match your system capacity at the rating condition and choose the filter drier accordingly.
As chemi suggested you can use the replaceable core type filter drier . You can also use the product selection software of Danfoss for their drier selection http://refrigerationandairconditioni.../coolselector/
