Really Paul;
I've seen several jobs where Sporlan driers were installed incorrectly in
the hot gas discharge [because the person perported to 'know'] and, the
result was a dissintigration of the drier's contents. Funny how while the
unit was running, you could hear the material racing around the condenser.
Show me where Parker / Sporlan manufacturers' a drier for use in the hot gas
discharge line of a refrigeration system.
