Fluid reservoir function - GF83.40-P-2122-01P
The liquefied refrigerant enters the fluid reservoir under pressure and flows through a stainless-steel fabric layer to the filter block. The filter block can absorb a specific amount of water.
The filter block's pores are matched exactly to the molecular size of the refrigerant. Thus the refrigerant can flow through the filter block.
All other material is stopped by this molecular filter where it is stored. The cleansed refrigerant then flows through a rising pipe to the expansion valve.

Identifying Receiver/Drier. Scheme 3
| Fluid reservoir, position | The receiver (8) is located on the right-hand side of the condenser in the front of the engine compartment. | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Receiver task | Filtering chemical and mechanical impurities out of the refrigerant Volume storage for the refrigerant Draining of the refrigerant | ||
| Fluid reservoir, design | The receiver/drier (8) can be partially disassembled and consists of a housing, a cover and a filter cartridge. As a result it is possible to replace separately the filter cartridge inside the receiver/drier (8) separately. | ||
