REFRIGERANT FILTER DRIER FOR USE IN A REFRIGERANT RECYCLING DEVICE Abstract of the Disclosure A light-weight, readily replaceable filter-drier for use in a refrigerant recycling device comprising a long, narrow body containing a closely packed desiccant material that substantially occupies the entire volume of the body. the desiccant may be comprised of 100 percent molecular sieve or any combination of desiccants and/or other absorbent materials that are required to achieve the desired degree of refrigerant purity. Filters are located at either end of the body which are biased by a spring member support and contain the desiccant material within the body. Standard fluid fittings close the ends of the filter-drier and enable the device to be easily and quickly installed and removed in the refrigerant recycling device. The present invention achieves the advantage of dramatically improving the efficiency and capacity of a filter-drier for use in a recycling device by substantially increasing the amount and duration of contact between the desiccant and the refrigerant. In a preferred configuration, multiple filter-driers are connected in series and have a moisture indicator located therebetween. Not only does a multiple filter-drier set-up increase total dehydration capacity and efficiency, but also it allows each individual filter-drier to be used to a greater capacity while still maintaining a factor of safety.
