Heil Quaker ICP 1173679 Filter Drier
For any technician looking to maintain system integrity after a breach, the Heil Quaker ICP 1173679 Filter Drier is a critical OEM replacement part. This 3/8" sweat liquid line filter drier is engineered specifically for International Comfort Products (ICP) equipment, including brands like Heil, Tempstar, and Comfortmaker. With a high 700 PSIG maximum working pressure, this solid core filter drier provides heavy-duty moisture removal and acid neutralization, protecting the expansion valve and compressor from harmful contaminants. Designed for a 3/8 inch liquid line, the weld connections ensure a leak-proof seal under high-pressure refrigeration cycles. Integrating this HVAC liquid line drier during a refrigerant leak repair or compressor swap is standard practice to prevent internal corrosion and "freeze-ups" at the metering device. When you are performing HVAC system diagnostics and find a temperature drop across the liquid line, swapping in a fresh 1173679 is the professional way to restore proper subcooling and flow capacity without introducing non-condensables into the circuit.
Key Benefits- High-Capacity Desiccant: The molecular sieve core is optimized for maximum water absorption and acid filtration in residential HVAC systems.
- OEM Compatibility: Precision engineered to fit ICP NH4A4 series and popular Heil air conditioner models, ensuring exact 3/8" SWT alignment.
- Rugged Construction: Rated for up to 700 PSIG, making it suitable for high-pressure R-410A systems and demanding commercial applications.
- Contaminant Protection: Features a high-density internal filter to trap copper shavings and debris down to 25 microns.
When should I replace the liquid line filter drier?
A filter drier replacement is mandatory any time the refrigerant circuit is opened to the atmosphere. It should also be replaced if a temperature drop of more than 3?F is measured across the inlet and outlet, indicating a clogged liquid line filter.
Is the ICP 1173679 bi-directional?
No, this is a directional filter drier. Always orient the arrow on the drier body to point toward the metering device (evaporator) to ensure proper refrigerant filtration and prevent desiccant breakdown.
Can I use this drier for a compressor burnout?
While this liquid line drier provides excellent moisture control, a suction line drier is also recommended for a compressor burnout cleanup to protect the new compressor from residual acid in the oil.
