blocked drier

[monkey spanners]

Haven't had a blocked drier for months and had two this week! Took some pics just in case you are bored and have nothing better to do System is on R22, no doubt someone would be able to work out the pressure drop from the temperatures

on about all things blocked,ive had a number of fujitsu units R22 and R407C with blocked internal liquid line dries at the condenser,i think fujistu call them strainer valves,there only 3/8 in size and 4" long but boy do they cause some pain,went to a call last week end,the compresser pulling a vac and on opening the unit i found more line taps in there than any good HRP stock (other wholesalers are available) so someone was having "fun" before me

I suppose on the older systems there is always the potential for blockages depending on who has done what to it over time.

A drier can only absorb so much moisture and contaminents so if earlier works have been done it can happen.
