It works in <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Reversing_valve\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reversible cycle<\/a>. It is designed to allow flow in the pump liquid line in both directions. This ZRK163 Reversible Filter Dryer is used for refrigerants R12, R22, R32, R502, R134a, R404A, R407C, R410A, R507. Also for CFC, HCFC, HFC and specific lubricants. Filtration capacity reaches 0.10 microns. The internal check valve, made of nylon, ensures filtration in both directions. The removal of organic and inorganic acids is achieved using activated aluminum oxide, and moisture is removed with a molecular dryer. The addition of activated carbon in the drying core helps to remove wax at low operating temperatures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"description\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: bold; color: #000000;\">Technical features<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"product-collateral\">\n<div id=\"product_tabs_additional_contents\" class=\"product-tabs-content\">\n<table id=\"product-attribute-specs-table\" class=\"data-table\" style=\"height: 117px; width: 42.8042%; border-style: solid; border-color: #000000;\" border=\"1\">\n<colgroup>\n<col width=\"180px\" \/>\n<col \/><\/colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 10px;\">\n<th class=\"label\" style=\"height: 10px; width: 57.1144%;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">Filter<strong> reversible dehydrator ZRK163<\/strong><\/span><\/th>\n<td class=\"data\" style=\"height: 10px; width: 33.925%; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">SAM<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 10px;\">\n<th class=\"label\" style=\"height: 35px; width: 57.1144%;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\"><strong>Working pressure (PS)<\/strong><\/span><\/th>\n<td class=\"data\" style=\"height: 35px; width: 33.925%; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">46 were<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 10px;\">\n<th class=\"label\" style=\"height: 36px; width: 57.1144%;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\"><strong>Burst pressure<\/strong><\/span><\/th>\n<td class=\"data\" style=\"height: 36px; width: 33.925%; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">175 were<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 10px;\">\n<th class=\"label\" style=\"height: 36px; width: 57.1144%;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\"><strong>CONNECTIONS<\/strong><\/span><\/th>\n<td class=\"data\" style=\"height: 36px; width: 33.925%; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">3\/8\u2033 <strong>SAE<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\">The reversible filter drier model ZRK163 SAE has a solid core made of a mixture of molecular sieve and activated aluminum.
