Re: what does this arrow mean??

That line is bidirectional since this is heat pump!
In heating mode it is correctly oriented and protect capillary and 4 Way valve from clogging.
Sometimes it is another strainer on bigger diameter line coming from indoor unit or somewhere else in circuit with same task of protecting capillary tube and 4-way valve . In indoor unit it does not have to protect anything from clogging, therefore it could be oriented like that.Last edited by nike123; 12-03-2010 at 08:56 AM.

Re: what does this arrow mean??
looks like a discharge muffler to me, acts a bit like your car exaust if you like,the arrow means the canteen is a thater way just the direction of flow for the guy who,s fitting it as its looks the same from both ends.

Re: what does this arrow mean??
Apologies for not coming back to this.
Just to resurrect this and finalise. I received a new strainer and the arrow was pointing the same way, how odd, to me anyway.
As this was a new one I did not question it.
This unit also had an indoor coil that was leaking. Replaced and working ok.
Still find it odd the arrow pointing in the opposite direction of flow..

Re: what does this arrow mean??
It's strange that the liquid line comes from the middle of a condensing coil. I see why nike123 thought it was a heat pump.
