Accumulator HVAC: Description and Operation
The function of this is both to store and desiccate refrigerant.
The refrigerant which comes into the desiccant container is in liquid form and under high pressure. It passes through the filter unit where it is dehydrated
and any particles are separated. The refrigerant then goes on to the expansion valve.
There is a sight glass on the desiccant container which indicates the amount of refrigerant in the system.
There is also a pressure switch on the desiccant container.
