For some reason I never understood this well. Your explanation was exactly on point. The design is based on the difference in boiling points for water, trapping water as a gas in the receiver dryer or as a liquid in the accumulator.
excuse me sir I have a question, as video said there will be more and more liquid refrigerant in accumulator how to handle it, and whether the oil will get into the AC system or just in compressor
I’m doing a presentation on the receiver drier for my HVAC class for automotive engineering. This video explained its operation much better than my textbook. Thank you!
Thank you for the time you took to make this video. I understand it now, it’s just like a bong used to smoke weed. I think Cheech and Chong did a movie explaining the same thing. Thanks again.

Hi brother thanks for your videos I'm a subscriber. Question please... I have a 1995 Lexus LS 400. The radiator fan is not activating. It does work because i tested it. I disconnected the connector that's connected to the ac receiver drier and the radiator fan turns on and stays on continuously the whole time. But when I reconnect the connector the radiator fan turns off. I'm trying to fix the fan so that it turns on when I turn on my air conditioner but the fan does not turn on when I turn on the AC. I feel like it has something to do with that connection but I'm not sure. Do you think I might have a bad sensor that's connected to the receiver drier? Thanks. Anybody knowledgeable please reply soon.
The purpose of the accumulator is to make sure only gas makes it to the compressor. Liquid will wreck a compressor. The dryer is just a filter. It doubles as a storage tank too in some cases. That’s the receiver part. Receivers are just storage tanks for the gas. In many cases the receiver dryer are separate components. Called receiver. And the filter dryer.
I just removed my accumulator to replace it on my 1988 Ford F250 with a 460 engine. It had 8 ounces of oil in it. That seems like way too much to me. Anybody know for sure?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have a question. Can I change my drier unit myself from my Volvo s70? I can fix many things in my car. Changing plugs, brakes etc... However I am very skeptical about these complicated devices. My drier is heavily rusted and I believe it leaks gas. Else I will take it to the mechanic. What would you suggest sir (or whomever has experience)?

I am from Iraq and there is no oil collector in the market. Can I use a dryer as an alternative and change the location of the dryer at the end of the condenser tube? I apologize for any spelling errors, I use a translator
What if I connect the accumulator direct to the evaporater like no distance between the two.will that effect the system? ( I'm putting a complete new ac system in a vehicle that wasn't designed with one.)
My a/c broke and the lines off the compressor are cut open. Can I just pull the A/C clutch relay? (the pull spins freely) I don't care if the a/c works or not.

Same! I’m in an automotive repair class for hvac right now. Can’t imagine doing a whole project on one part lol. My professor would fall asleep!
Do you study all parts of the car or do you just study HVAC?
great vid. you explained what my tech school couldn't. thanks!
Great info! For people who watched & learned from this video, pls give it a like. This informative video deserves a thumbs up 👍
Thank you for this
Very well instructed! Very easy to understand with that type of explaining!
great video. very educational and simple to understand. well done
Thank you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

That was s a fantastic explanation my friend, thank you I learned something today..
Thanks for the explanation…it helped me a lot
Great explanation thank you!!
Thanks for the video. You explained it very well and simple.
Perfectly explained. Thank you for sharing & I just subscribed 👊🏼
Great job
Well done, thank you!
Well explained ❤

perfect video! thanks for the info!
great video, thank you! P.S. and good painter :)
Excellent!
Thanks for the info,
Sorry ya me di cuenta de que subes uno en ingles y otro en español 👌🏻
Great video, how does the accumulator returns the liquid refrigerant, trapped at the bottom, back into the system? Thank you!

Hola 👋🏻 estaria bien que cada vídeo que subas en inglés subas ese mismo vídeo en español y viceversa para entenderle mejor , saludos
You mentioned oil at the bottom if I replaced drier on my 95 Impala would 6 oz of oil be too much
Still don't understand 😂 I tried. Guess it's just too amazing to capture.
The purpose of the accumulator is to make sure only gas makes it to the compressor. Liquid will wreck a compressor.
The dryer is just a filter. It doubles as a storage tank too in some cases. That’s the receiver part. Receivers are just storage tanks for the gas.
In many cases the receiver dryer are separate components. Called receiver. And the filter dryer.
Is the inlet of the accumulator supposed to be cold? The line is cold after the orifice tube but when it exits the evaporator it is not cold anymore.
I just removed my accumulator to replace it on my 1988 Ford F250 with a 460 engine. It had 8 ounces of oil in it. That seems like way too much to me. Anybody know for sure?
Can I change my ac system from accumulator to drier?

why some receiver dryer have wires?? is there any electrical functions in some cars?
what is tempreture of Receiver drier at working position ?
What is used on a system that is both a FOT and a TXV?
oil is liguid to!!! what happen with this? how the compression its save?
Does oil in the system also go through each these components, or only an accumulator ?
Question: Is it possible to collect the two pieces in the car's cooling system?
Thank you very much

It needs to be anywhere between the evaporator and compressor.
My a/c broke and the lines off the compressor are cut open. Can I just pull the A/C clutch relay? (the pull spins freely) I don't care if the a/c works or not.
No need to pull the relay, because the clutch will not engage without refrigerant due to the low pressure switch.
