Description And Operation: Description
The A/C receiver/drier (2) is mounted to the left side of the A/C condenser (1) and is on the high-side of the A/C system. The A/C receiver/drier helps remove moisture from the refrigerant, filters the refrigerant, stores any unnecessary refrigerant and retains any refrigerant vapor that may leave the A/C condenser, until it becomes a liquid.
The A/C receiver/drier housing (2), secured to the condenser, is not serviced separately from the A/C condenser, however, the internal filter/drier element can be replaced without replacing the condenser.
