Receiver Dryer: Description and Operation
Receiver-Dryer
The sealed receiver-dryer assembly is connected to the condenser outlet pipe. It acts as a refrigerant storing container, receiving liquid and some vapor
and refrigerant oil from the evaporator.
At the bottom of the receiver-dryer is the desiccant, which acts as a drying agent for the moisture that may have entered the system. An oil bleed hole is
located near the bottom of the receiver-dryer outlet pipe to provide an oil return path to the compressor. The receiverdryer is serviceable only as an
assembly.
