Suction Line Components
Suction line refrigerant components necessary for field
installation in the suction line are a filter (Core Type),
access valves (ports), Frostat
™
control for coil frost
protection, and ball shutoff valves. See
for placement location.
Suction Filter/Filter Drier (Field Supplied)
Install the filter in the suction line upstream of the
compressors. To prevent oil accumulation, suction
filters should be installed vertical with the outlet at the
bottom or no more than 45° from vertical.
Ball Shutoff Valves
The ball shutoff valve allows for isolation of the Filter/
Filter Drier for easier core replacement.
Two ball shutoff valves equal to the OD Tubing size for
suction line are required.
Access Valves (Ports)
The access ports in the suction line allow the operating
suction pressure to be checked across the suction line
filter. These ports are usually a Schrader valve with
core.
Frostat Coil Frost Protection
The Frostat
™
control is the preferred method of coil
frost protection. The Frostat control bulb is
mechanically attached to the suction line near the
evaporator and wired to the unit control panel. See
field connection diagram for details.
Liquid Line Components
The required liquid line refrigerant components include
a filter drier (Core Type), access valve(s) or (ports),
solenoid valve(s), moisture indicating sight glass,
expansion valve(s), and ball shutoff valve(s). See
for placement location.
Liquid Line Filter/Filter Drier (Field Supplied)
Install the filter drier in the liquid line as close as
possible to the expansion valve. Locate them upstream
of the moisture indicator and solenoid valve (if
applicable).
