Drier Filter EK-164 “1/2” Soldering – Product Description The EK-164 Drier Filter is a high-efficiency moisture and acid removal component used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Designed for 1/2-inch solder (sweat) connections, it ensures optimal performance by filtering out moisture, acid, and solid contaminants from the refrigerant line. This makes it essential for system protection, especially during compressor replacement or after system maintenance. Applications Commercial and residential refrigeration systems Split air conditioners and HVAC units Heat pump systems Refrigerant line protection during service or installation Features High moisture and acid removal – Uses desiccant blend to eliminate harmful impurities Solid core construction – Ensures consistent filtration and flow Copper sweat connections – For secure, leak-proof soldering Corrosion-resistant body – Ensures long service life Compatible with CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants – Including R-22, R-134a, R-404A, R-407C, R-410A, etc. Specifications Attribute Details Model EK-164 Connection Type 1/2” Copper Solder (Sweat) Filter Core Solid block desiccant Maximum Working Pressure Up to 680 psig (depending on refrigerant) Refrigerant Types CFC, HCFC, HFC compatible Flow Direction Uni-directional Application Liquid line filtering and drying Questions What type of refrigerant are you using with this drier filter (e.g., R-22, R-410A)? Are you replacing an existing drier or installing a new one in your HVAC/refrigeration line?
