Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I replace the 34430 filter drier in my recovery unit?
Replace every 50-100 service cycles or when moisture indicator shows contamination. Heavy commercial use may require more frequent replacement every 30-50 cycles. Monitor system performance indicators and refrigerant quality to determine optimal replacement intervals for your specific operating conditions. Record cycle counts where possible to maintain consistency and replace sooner if recovery times increase.
Is the 34430 compatible with R-134a and R-12 refrigerants?
Yes, the 34430 works with both R-134a and R-12 refrigerants when used in compatible 17700A, 34450, or 34700 series recovery units. The desiccant blend is formulated to handle moisture and acid contamination from various refrigerant types safely and effectively. Always verify unit model and follow manufacturer service procedures for proper installation.
What happens if I don't replace the filter drier regularly?
Contaminated filters reduce recovery efficiency, allow acid and moisture to damage equipment, and can cause premature compressor failure in your recovery unit. Neglected filters may also contaminate clean refrigerant during processing, leading to costly system repairs and reduced equipment lifespan.
How does this compare to universal filter driers?
The 34430 is engineered specifically for Robinair recovery units with optimized desiccant blend and exact fit, while universal filters may not provide proper sealing or filtration capacity. OEM filters ensure warranty compliance and deliver consistent performance tailored to your equipment's specifications.
