!
Safety instructions:
• Read installation instructions
Failure to comply can result in device failure,
system damage or personal injury.
• It is intended for use by persons having the
appropriate knowledge and
attempting to install the filter-drier make sure
pressure in system is brought to and remains at
atmospheric pressure.
• Do not release any refrigerant into the
atmosphere.
• Do not use on any other fluid media without
prior approval of Alco Controls. Use of fluids
not listed could result in chemical deterioration
of the desiccant in filter-drier.
• In a severely contaminated system, avoid
breathing acid vapours and avoid contact with
the skin from contaminated refrigerant /
lubricants. Failure to do so could result in skin
injury.

running time, check colour of moisture indicator e, check colour of moisture indicator
for moisture level. We recommend the use of for moisture level. We recommend the use of
ALCO moisture indicators. The colour calibration ALCO moisture indicators. The colour calibration
of ALCO moisture indicators provide a positive of ALCO moisture indicators provide a positive
and precise indication of the system's moisture and precise indication of the system's moisture
condition.
• In systems with exc In systems with excessive moisture it may be
necessary to replace filter necessary to replace filter-drier for several times in
order to bring moisture in the system to a safe order to bring moisture in the system to a safe

recommended.
• For system clean- -up after burn-out, we recommend
installing an oversized filter installing an oversized filter-drier. To provide
positive compressor protection, add an ALCO positive compressor protection, add an ALCO
