LOL - Where does it say you can? It [the technical bulletin] says you "can"
put a LIQUID LINE FILTER DRIER in the LIQUID LINE. It says you "can" put a
SUCTION LINE FILTER DRIER in the SUCTION line.
The drier's are technically designed to remove moisture, was and
particulate. [Some are designed to remove and suspend acids]. Nothing more
nothing less [except for those driers that are specifically designed to
remove oil.] In the hot gas discharge line, it can not remove and hold
moisture [too hot]. It's going to produce a high discharge pressure
differential which will raise the compression ratio [even you discussion
board you linked says so]. And likely will create problems with discharge
oil [since the compression ratio would become high - oil will solidify and
no longer lubricate.] There is no means also for testing the "fullness" of
the desiccant when replacement time comes near. You know you're wrong, just
admit it and move on.
