***NOT FOR HEAT PUMPS. SINGLE REFRIGERANT FLOW DIRECTION***
The Sporlan C-032-S Catch-All Liquid Line Filter Drier provides reliable contamination control for air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. It captures moisture, acids, dirt, scale, solder particles, and other harmful debris circulating through the refrigerant circuit, helping protect expansion devices, compressors, and other sensitive components.
The C-032-S uses a molded porous desiccant core that directs refrigerant through the filtering material for effective contaminant removal. Its compact sealed-steel body is equipped with 1/4-inch ODF copper solder connections for installation in smaller liquid-line applications.
This model has a 3-cubic-inch desiccant volume and a maximum working pressure of 650 PSIG. It is commonly listed for smaller refrigeration and air-conditioning systems up to approximately 1/2 ton, but final sizing should be based on the refrigerant, operating conditions, and Sporlan application data.

Installation Note
Install the filter drier in the refrigerant-flow direction shown by the arrows on the shell. Proper selection, brazing, and installation should be completed by a qualified HVAC or refrigeration technician.
The Sporlan C-083-S Catch-All Liquid Line Filter Drier provides dependable contaminant protection for air-conditioning and refrigeration systems. It is designed to remove moisture, acids, dirt, scale, solder particles, sludge, carbon, and other foreign material from the refrigerant circuit.
The molded porous core uses a specially formulated blend of desiccants to provide effective moisture and acid removal while maintaining low refrigerant pressure drop. Refrigerant is directed through the core for maximum contact, and an outlet safety filter provides additional protection against loose particles reaching the expansion valve, solenoid valve, capillary tube, or compressor.
The C-083-S features 3/8-inch ODF copper solder connections and a durable sealed steel shell. Its compact design makes it suitable for new HVAC and refrigeration installations, equipment repairs, and replacement applications.

The universal acceptance of the Catch-All? Filter-Drier is due to its unique molded porous core, consisting of a blend of highly effective desiccants. The quality features built into it assure years of service on any refrigeration system.
- MOISTURE - The Catch-All Filter-Drier removes moisture from the refrigerant by adsorbing and retaining it deep within the desiccant granules. The blend of desiccants used in the Catch-All Filter-Drier are specially formulated for exceptional water removal.
- FOREIGN MATTER - The Catch-All Filter-Drier will filter out scale, solder particles, carbon, sludge, dirt or any other foreign matter with negligible pressure drop. Fine particles that would go through an ordinary strainer are removed down to a minimum size in one pass filtration. The large filtering area of the Catch-All Filter-Drier core permits it to collect a large amount of dirt without plug up.
- ACID- The Catch-All Filter-Drier is unexcelled in acid removal ability. The hydrochloric, hydrofluoric, and various organic acids are adsorbed and held by the desiccant in a manner similar to the adsorption of moisture. Tests have demonstrated that the Catch-All Filter-Drier has superior acid removal ability when compared to competitive driers. This ability, along with its excellent ability toclean up the oil, is responsible for the excellent field performance in cleaning up severely contaminated systems.
- OIL SLUDGE AND VARNISH- Even the best refrigeration oils break down to produce varnish, sludge and organic acids. Only the Catch-All Filter-Drier is capable of removing these products of oil decomposition.
- SPECIAL APPLICATIONS- A special ?HH? core Catch-All Filter-Drier is available to remove wax which frequently causes difficulty on low temperature refrigeration systems. For cap tube systems, use the C-032-CAP or C-032-CAP-T Catch-All which hasfittings suitable for attaching to any size capillary tube.
